The Eagles looks to wipe out North Carolina. (AP Images)

Last week, the North Carolina Tar Heels were in the Top 25 and the Boston College Eagles were not. That’s part of the fossil record now. The Heels are 5-2 SU and 3-3 ATS after losing to Virginia (+3.5) in overtime last week. Boston College is on a four-game winning streak at 5-1 SU and 3-2 ATS.

The Tar Heels are still 3-point home favorites for Saturday’s matchup, although their juice has been cut to –105. These two programs have only met twice before, splitting a pair in 2004 and 2005. But they do have a common opponent this year: Virginia Tech.

In Week 4, North Carolina (-3.5) fell 20-17 to the Hokies. Then last Saturday, Boston College prevailed 28-23 as a 3-point chalk. Virginia Tech was the road team in both cases. However, the Tar Heels are stronger now with Cam Sexton at quarterback. Their future is bright.
