The current betting odds have Clemson listed as a 3.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Clemson has been having a great year as they enter this game as a ranked team with their 18-4 record overall and they are leading the ACC right now too with their 10-1 conference record. They have even been great in their road games with a 4-2 road record and they have some momentum as of late with their 3 wins in a row now. Boston College has been doing the opposite though as they are struggling to even stay above .500 with their 10-12 record overall this year and they have even struggled in their home games with just a 7-4 home record this season. They have struggled against ACC opponents with a 4-7 conference record and they are coming off a loss in their last game too. This conference is for Clemson to take right now as they have been the dominant force and they have a chance to extend their great conference record with another win here. The best way to place a bet here is on Clemson to cover the spread in this game.

“He was playing well. Sometimes, when you are playing well and making some plays, and that adrenaline kicks in, I think he had a lot of adrenaline because he has not played in two weeks. He was really excited to play today. I am sure all of those things helped.” - Brad Brownell on Chase Hunter after his team’s win against FSU in their last game.

"I thought we had a good flow (for about 24 minutes). (We were) getting the ball inside to Quinten Post, driving the ball from the perimeter, we made some threes. ... As our team continues to grow, we're trying to be a little bit more mature." - Earl Grant after his team’s loss against Virginia in their last game.
