Georgia Tech vs Boston College Prediction

Boston College has its issues on both sides of the ball, but I’m not sure what Georgia Tech has done to deserve to be this large of a favorite. Georgia Tech usually thrives as an underdog, not a favorite. We’ve also seen Georgia Tech take a step back defensively in recent weeks. Boston College doesn’t win much, but it has covered 3 straight games and just beat Pitt as a near touchdown underdog. The underdog is 2-1 SU and 3-0 in the last 3 games between Boston College and Georgia Tech. I’ll grab the points with the Eagles.
