In two head to head matchups this season, the margin between Boston College and Boston University was razor thin. A pair of late goals turned what could have been a 1 point weekend in to a 3 point weekend for the Eagles. In reality, any result would have been fair aside from one sweeping the other.
BU started the season off 2-3, but since then has gone 14-4-4, with a run of impressive results. Like BC, they have one of the nation's elite offenses. The Eagles and Terriers have nearly identical power play percentages. The area where BC has a leg up is on defense; the Eagles have the nation's 5th best defense at 1.
