Game preview & prediction

Boston University hosts Dartmouth on 15 November 2026 in the NCAA, and the Pythia model names the Eagles as the clear favourite, rating them 77% to win largely because of their 3-1 season record, 80.0 points per game, and 74.5 allowed, while Dartmouth sits 3-1 with 83.0 points per game and 66.5 allowed; Boston's 2-0 home record, 96.5 points per game and 79.5 allowed at home further lift the model's confidence. Both teams have matched 3-1 records so far, with Dartmouth's 77.0 points per game and 69.0 allowed on the road, and Boston's 80.0 points per game and 74.5 allowed overall. Boston's last five games include a 100-74 win over Johnson & Wales (RI) at home, a 55-72 loss to Northwestern away and a 72-67 win over Brown away; Dartmouth's last five feature an 85-76 win over Albany Great Danes away, a 71-78 loss to Central Connecticut State at home and a 107-50 win over Framingham State at home. Historically the Eagles have won four of six meetings, though Dartmouth last beat Boston 77-64 on 13 December 2025. Pythia projects a 79-71 win for Boston, a 150.5 total, a home line of -3.0 with a 70% chance of covering, a 143.5 total with a 66% over probability, and a 4% overtime likelihood. The game ends with Boston's 79 points, Dartmouth's 71.
