Monday afternoon December 27th, 2021 2:30pm EDT the NCAA football is back in action. The Boston College Eagles are in Annapolis, MD, USA to face the East Carolina Pirates in Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium in the Military Bowl. Stay tuned we've got you covered on all the best betting angles here at Picks and Parlays your leader in free sports betting picks!

The Boston College Eagles are 6-6, 6-6 against the spread, sitting in 7th place in the Athletic Coast conference. Offensively the Eagles are averaging 184.8 passing yards, 165.6 rushing yards, and 24.7 points.  Defensively the Eagles allow 173.5 passing yards, 170.3 rushing yards, and 22.2 points.

Key players for the Eagles are Quarterback Dennis Grosel completing 111 of 192 passes for 1216 yards, 6 touchdowns and 7 interceptions. Runningback Pat Carwo III with 205 carries for 1045 yards and 7 touchdowns and Receiver Zay Flowers with 44 receptions for 746 yards and 5 touchdowns.

The East Carolina Pirates are 7-6, 7-5 against the spread, sitting in 4th place in the American Athletic conference. Offensively the Pirates are averaging 270.8 passing yards, 162.4 rushing yards, and 29.7 points. Defensively the Pirates allow 233.1 passing yards, 161.8 rushing yards, and points.

I think this will be a very close game. The Eagles haven't done well at all against the spread this season going 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games while the Pirates are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games. The Pirates I think will win outright and my best bet is ECU +3. Final Score Prediction the East Carolina Pirates win out right and the total stays under 24-22.
