The Notre Dame Fighting Irish and Boston College Eagles face off on Tuesday in a college basketball showdown at the Conte Forum. When these two teams faced off in February it was Notre Dame that secured the 99-95 victory. This is a key game for both teams who look to be middle of the road ACC teams.
Notre Dame comes into this game with an 8-6 record overall and they have gone 3-11 against the spread. On Friday against the Miami Hurricanes, Notre Dame scored only 65 points and they ended up losing by 11 points. Notre Dame is averaging 70.1 points while their defense is giving up 68.4 points per game. Nate Laszewki is averaging 13.9 points while shooting 53.3 percent from the field and 40.4 percent from behind the three point line. In this game I would expect Notre Dame to try and rush the pace of the game, and put the pressure on this Boston College defense.
On the other side of this matchup is Boston College who sits with a 7-7 record and they have gone 4-10 against the spread. In the last game against Syracuse the offense only scored 65 points while the defense gave up 79 points. Makai Ashton-Longford led the way finishing with 14 points, four rebounds, and three assists. Boston College is averaging 64.4 points while their defense is giving up 67.8 points per game. Ashton-Longford has been the top player averaging 11.8 points while shooting 40.8 percent from the field.
