The set-up: Obviously I'm not calling for an outright victory, but I do believe that the stage is set for BC to comfortably sneak in through the back door down the stretch. Dennis Grosel ha had to fill the shoes of starter Anthony Brown, but thankfully the offense revolves mostly around RB AJ Dillon. BC is coming off a big win and it's also fresh out of its bye week. Overall the Eagles averages 34.6 PPG and they allow 28.1.

The pick: The Tigers are 7-0 and ranked No. 4 in the country. On the year they're averaging 40 points and conceding only 12. Clemson leans heavily on RB Travis Etienne, who averages almost 8 yards per carry. It's interesting to note though that Clemson is just 2-5 ARTS in its last seven at home in this series, while BC is 11-4-1 ATS in its last 16 vs. teams with winning records. Additionally note that the Eagles have failed to cover in just eight of their last 29 games overall. No outright, but expect a solid cover from a good team that won't be going down today without a fight.

8* play on Boston College.
