The Friars welcome Boston College to the Dunkin’ Donuts Center and will look to avenge last season’s loss at the Conte Forum. Providence was a 2.5 point favorite last season and lost the game by 9 on the road. The line is a bit larger this year and the Eagles are trying to overcome a possible E. Coli virus outbreak among 10 team members from some bad burritos at Chipotle. Providence has opened as a 15.5 point favorite over Boston College. The Friars are 5-3 ATS this season. Boston College is 1-4 ATS this season.
