Pitt Vs. Boston College Preview: Betting Info, TV, Game Time

Published

on

Pitt is now ranked No. 12 in the NET rankings after the loss to Mississippi State. The Bulldogs are ranked No. 10 in the country, up 16 spots.

On Saturday evening, Pitt will host Boston College for the 2024-25 season Senior Night game.

PITT’S OUTLOOK

Pitt (16-14, 7-12 ACC) has now dropped four-straight games. The Panthers started off the season 12-2 overall, but have since spiraled towards the bottom of the ACC standings. Pitt now wraps up the regular season with a matchup against Boston College, another bottom-half team in the ACC standings. The Eagles have also lost several games in a row, so one team will be snapping a streak on Saturday.

BOSTON COLLEGE EAGLES (12-18, 4-15 ACC)

Head Coach: Earl Grant (Fourth Season)

BC REPORT

The Eagles have had a disappointing season this year after Grant earned his first winning season as head coach in the 2023-24 campaign. They have not won a single road game this season, sitting at 0-9. Recently, the Eagles dropped games to Stanford, Cal, and Clemson.

In that recent game against Clemson, BC looked to Jayden Hastings and Elijah Strong for scoring production. Hastings, a 6-foot-9, 240-pound freshman forward, was 8 for 8 from the field in the loss to the Tigers. This season’s leading scorer for BC, Donald Hand Jr., went just 1 for 10 from the field in the loss, scoring three points.

As a team, BC ranks toward the bottom of the ACC in nearly every major stat category, aside from blocks per game (third), three-point percentage (eighth), and a few others.

METRICS

Pitt is ranked No. 60 in the NET rankings, while Boston College is ranked No. 198.
