Jim Mora led the Huskies to a bowl game last year, and expectations have grown in Storrs. This year has been disappointing as UConn is 1-6 on the season. The Huskies have been better than their record. The defense is at least average, but the offense remains a work in progress. The Huskies can run the ball, but the passing game has been hit or miss. UConn dropped their first two games by double-digits but over their last five games, they have just one loss by double-digits. Boston College is 4-3 on the season, but could just as easily be 1-6. The Eagles have three wins by exactly three points, including a home game vs Holy Cross. Boston College runs the ball slightly better than average, and I think this will be a run-oriented game plan for both teams, UConn has been hard to get margin on, and BC has not been able to get margin most of the season. I think the line here is too high. Make the play on UConn.

After losing to No. 5 Clemson and No. 13 Wake Forest, Boston College catches a big break in the schedule. That will help senior QB Phil Jurkovec (11 TDs, 6 INTs), who has 37 TDs and 15 interceptions in his college career. BC is 20-7 ATS after allowing 40+ points in the last game. Connecticut has a freshman quarterback in Zion Turner (7 TDs, 4 INTs) on an offense that is No. 122 in the nation in total yards and No. 117 in scoring (16.7 ppg). The defense is No. 103 surrendering 32.9 points per game. Boston College has covered four in a row against UConn and college football road favorites like B.C. that average 3.25 yards per rush or less are 41-14 ATS. Play Boston College.

It has been a tough season for third year Head Coach Bob Diaco. He started his coaching tenure at 2-10, but last year was 6-6 with a Bowl game that ended in a loss, but expectations were for an even better season this time around. The Huskies won't be bowling this year at 3-7, as the offense has once again betrayed them. Boston College is a great defensive team, but have the worst offense in the FBS. That puts a lot of pressure on a team that finds it very difficult to find the end-zone as a significant chalk in this contest. The fact is that history strongly opposes a home favorite when the total is less than 40, which is the case for this one. Home favorites with a total of less than 40 are 33-66-5 ATS, so take the points on UConn.
