Fenway Bowl Betting Preview

Mustangs Rolling on Offense

The NCAAF schedule started off pretty tough for this SMU Mustangs team, but they were able to get on a roll near the end of the season. When making an SMU prediction for the Fenway Bowl, you are going to want to focus on the offensive numbers. 

SMU is averaging over 40 points per game this season, and that number seemed to be getting better as the year was moving along. Therefore, based on their NCAAF Team Stats, the Mustangs averaged over 285 passing yards per game, and they tend to do much of their work through the air. 

Quarterback Preson Stone threw for 3,187 yards and 28 touchdowns this season, but he also suffered one of the more costly in the NCAAF injury report to end the year. SMU still has enough weapons to score, but his absence will be something to watch. 

Boston College Has to Defend

The Boston College odds in this game are not looking good, and it’s because this team is averaging just 25.0 points per game. Boston College is not going to be able to keep up with SMU on offense, and it’s going to be up to the defense to come up with some big plays. 

The Eagles are able to run the football effectively, and that will be something that will need to show up in this game. Boston College is averaging nearly 200 rushing yards per game, and that offensive line should have a size advantage in this battle. 

This Eagles team was never going to be able to keep pace in the NCAAF standings in the ACC, but they lost some games that they should have won. Boston College will try to end the season with momentum, but it’s going to be up to the defense to make that happen.
