The Boston College Eagles will gun for their fourth win in their last five games, straight up and against the spread, when they take on their newest ACC conference rivals, the Louisville Cardinals, as 3-point home underdogs in Week 11 college football betting action.
The Eagles improved to 3-2 in conference play last week with a 33-31 upset victory over Virginia Tech as 2.5-point underdogs, extending their road record to a perfect 4-0 SU, 3-1 ATS. But Boston College has struggled on home turf this season, SU losers in its last two, and carries a 2-3 SU home record into Saturday night?s Cards vs. Eagles betting matchup at Alumni Stadium.
The 6-3 Cardinals will look to recover from a disappointing 42-31 loss to Florida State last weekend. The Seminoles spotted Louisville an early 21-point lead before rumbling back with 21 points in the fourth quarter to seal the win and cover as 3.5-point favorites.
The loss marked the third time this season that Louisville held an early lead before being outscored in the second half. It also was the Cards? second defeat in their last three, SU and ATS, dropping them to 4-3 in conference play, 3-4 ATS.
In other key Week 11 ACC matchups, 8-0 Florida State will look to maintain its strong position in the College Football Playoffs rankings and extend its SU winning streak to 25 when it plays host to the Virginia Cavaliers as a 20.5-point favorite at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com.
The Seminoles? winning streak is the longest in the nation, but with just two wins ATS, they have struggled to satisfy bettors. The 4-5 Cavaliers have struggled following a fast start, SU losers in their last three, and are just 1-6 SU in their last seven visits to Doak Campbell Stadium.
No. 22 Duke will look to strengthen its position atop the ACC Coastal when it travels to Syracuse as a 3.5-point favorite at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com. The 3-6 Orange have produced only one SU win in their last five, a 30-7 victory over Wake Forest as 6-point favorites, but recorded two additional ATS wins during that stretch, over conference rivals Clemson and Florida State.
No. 24 Georgia Tech takes on North Carolina State as a 3.5-point road favorite this weekend. The 7-2 Yellow Jackets have won six of their last seven SU on the road against the 5-4 Wolfpack, who are 1-4 SU in their last five, 3-2 ATS.
