Dartmouth comes into this matchup trying to snap their three game losing streak, but they have lost by margins of 13, 28, and 14 points. Boston College has won five games in a row and is fresh off of the Cayman Islands Classic Championship. The Eagles have had two close calls in a row against Boise State and Missouri State, but they have won by two points in both games. I don’t necessarily think BC is very good this season, but Dartmouth has looked pretty bad. Take the Eagles at home.
