How to Watch: Boston College Men's Basketball vs SMU
The Boston College Eagles (7-4, 0-1 ACC) men’s basketball team is looking to win its first conference game of the season as it hosts the SMU Mustangs (9-2, 1-0 ACC) on Saturday afternoon.
In their first season in the ACC, the Mustangs have had a strong start to their season, earning wins over Tarleton State, Florida A&M, UNC Greensboro, Prairie View A&M, Cal Baptist, Washington State, Alabama State, Virginia, and LSU as well as suffered losses to Butler and Mississippi State.
SMU will enter the matchup riding a four-game winning streak.
The Eagles have had a rougher stretch. After going 6-1 in their first seven games which included winning the Cayman Islands Classic, they went on a three-game skid to Dartmouth, South Carolina, and Wake Forest. Boston College recently snapped the losing streak with a slight 73-69 win over the Stonehill Skyhawks on Sunday afternoon.
Both teams have two more games left in 2024 and are hoping to end the year with momentum and record a conference win prior to their ACC slates starting in early January.
This will be the second all-time meeting between the two programs. The last outing was on Dec. 19, 1986, where SMU beat Boston College 62-49 in Tokyo, Japan, as a part of the Japan Bowl.
