Wake Forest and Boston College Betting Clash After Downers

Two of the best coaches in the ACC will match up in the regular-season finale for their schools.  Wake Forest’s Dave Clawson might be the most underrated coach in college football.  Consider that Clawson produces bowls every year at a program not known for consistent success.  In fact, Wake Forest has been in the thick of the ACC race all year.  In a similar way, Jeff Haffley has elevated interest in a Boston College program often lost in the pro sports noise.  Haffley is one of the great defensive minds in college football betting.

Wake Forest on Fumes as Defense Implodes

Boston College Fails to Build on Early Season Momentum

Last week, Boston College lost to Florida State 26-23 as 3-point home favorites.  The Seminoles and Eagles game went under the bet on NCAAF total of 55.5.  As a result, Boston College has a record of 6-5 straight up, 6-5 against the spread, and 3-8 over/under.  Overall, BC ranks 93^rd for total offense and 86^th for scoring offense.  While defensively, the Eagles rank 31^st overall and 25^th for points allowed.

Jordan Travis threw for three touchdowns and 251 yards.  And then Florida State stopped the Eagles in its own territory in the final two minutes.  As a result, the Seminoles can clinch a bowl berth with a win over Florida on Saturday.  FSU rolled to a 23-point lead before holding on to move a victory away from becoming bowl eligible.   Florida State has won five of seven after its rough start.  In sum, Travis completed 20-of-34 passes with no interceptions, connecting with three different receivers for scores.

For BC, Phil Jurkovec had a rough day with FSU keying on him.  Overall, Jurkovec went 10 of 24 for 148 yards with a TD and one INT. He carried 17 times for 59 yards with a score.

The Eagles looked a step slow defensively. It’s something they’ll need to figure out quickly with Wake Forest’s powerful offense on deck.
