Boston College vs Rhode Island 11/27/22 College Basketball Picks, Predictions, Odds

The Rhode Island Rams and the Boston College Eagles meet in college basketball action from the Silvio Conte Forum on Sunday afternoon.

The Rhode Island Rams will be out to build on a 57-44 win over Illinois State last time out. Ishmael Leggett leads the Rams in scoring and rebounding with 19.7 PPG and 5.8 RPG and Brayon Freeman has 10.8 PPG as the only other double-digit scorer for Rhode Island so far this season.

The Boston College Eagles will look to build on their 59-46 win over Wyoming in their last game. Makai Ashton-Langford leads Boston College in scoring and assists with 13.2 PPG and 2.3 APG while also logging 3.7 RPG and Jaeden Zackery has 10.8 PPG with 3.5 RPG as the only other double-digit scorer for Boston College up to this point in the year. T.J. Bickerstaff also has a team-high 7.2 RPG to lead the Eagles on the glass up to this point in the season. As a team, Boston College is averaging 66.2 PPG on 44.3% shooting from the field, 31.8% from three and 64.5% from the foul line this season.

Rhode Island is 1-6 ATS in their last 7 road games and 5-16 ATS in their last 21 games overall while the under is 4-0 in their last 4 road games against a team with winning home record. Boston College is 1-6 ATS in their last 7 home games and 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games following a win while the under is 5-0 in their last 5 games overall.

I get the case to be made either way here, but I’m looking at the under in this one. This game just feels like one of those first to 60 wins kinds of games, as neither offense hasn’t been anything to write home about, especially Rhode Island, who has had one of the worst offenses in the country in the early going this season. Give me the under in this slop fest.
