Eagles put Brief Win Streak on the Line Against Visiting Louisville
The Boston College Eagles will be gunning for back-to-back straight-up wins against ACC opponents for the first time in two years when they welcome the Louisville Cardinals to Alumni Stadium on Saturday afternoon for a Week 10 college football matchup.
The Eagles ended a 12-game SU losing streak against conference rivals last weekend, handing North Carolina State a 21-14 defeat as 16-point road underdogs. The 4-4 Eagles are winless SU and ATS in their past two at home, but covered in their past two when pegged as underdogs by 20 or more points.
The 7-1 Cardinals kept their College Football Playoff hopes alive with last week's 32-25 win in Virginia, but failed to cover as 34-point chalk. That dropped them to 1-3 ATS in their past four overall, and 3-5 ATS in their past eight road contests. The Cardinals lead the nation with 50 points per game, but have failed to cover when scoring 36 or fewer points this season.
Louisville has claimed victory in three straight meetings with the Eagles, including a decisive 38-19 win as 3-point chalk in their last visit two years ago. Boston College kept it close in a 17-14 loss at Louisville last season, covering as 7-point underdogs.
