Previewing and Predicting Boston College Men’s Basketball vs. Richmond

The 9-3 Boston College Eagles will try to increase their win streak to five when they take the court in Conte tomorrow afternoon at 1:00 against the University of Richmond Spiders, who come in at 2-9.

Keys to the Game

This should be a decently easy win for the Eagles against the Spiders, who come in as KenPom’s 234th ranked team and are above 200 in both adjusted offense and adjusted defense. BC, on the other hand, comes in at number 80 overall. If they can play a clean game and defend the three point line, this should be a relatively easy victory over an Atlantic-10 team.

In almost every game that BC has been favored in this year, the Eagles have come out kind of flat and have found themselves playing from behind. Against Columbia and CCSU, they found themselves in a quick deficit that they needed to overcome to beat their opponent. It would be nice to see Ky Bowman and Jerome Robinson light a fire under their teammates and get the whole team going for the entire 40 minutes.

Predictions

Katie: 80-57 BC

Toppin: 85-52 BC

Matt: 83-60 Eagles. The Eagles get to double digit wins for the first time in a few years, before ACC play really gets rolling.

Food and Non-alcoholic Beverage to Enjoy During the Game

Head to Cleveland Circle and get a nice burrito bowl from Chipotle (LOL) to settle in with during the game. Throw some hot sauce on there and watch Ky Bowman and Jerome Robinson have a day.
