Boston College Eagles at Wake Forest Demon Deacons (+6.5)
Thu. 9/13, 5:30 p.m. ET
Three things you need to know before betting on Boston College-Wake Forest:
1. Wake Forest has covered five of the past seven games between these teams since the start of the 2011 season, which includes last season's 34-10 road win in a pick 'em game. The Demon Deacons forced four turnovers in that victory, including three interceptions of Boston College quarterback Anthony Brown, who finished 11 of 29 for 119 yards. While some in and around the Chestnut Hill area have expressed optimism about the Eagles having put up 117 over the first two games of 2018, their opponents have been FCS Holy Cross and FBS independent Massachusetts, which last Saturday gave up 34 points in a 21-point loss to a Georgia Southern team that ranked 122nd out of 130 FBS teams last season with an average of only 4.
