Looking at BC's record this will probably be....

Our toughest opponent since the dawgs. They put up 34 on FSU and that's more pts than the other four opponents for the noles combined. Good football team I think.

Somewhere between the Syracuse and Wake Forest games...

BC has only played one road game this year, a 35-7 loss to Kiffin.
This will be a beatdown.

They will be fundamentally sound and play extremely....

hard. Smart football with little mistakes. We have the talent to put them down, but if we come with a half ### attitude and looking ahead, they could spring the upset. We will have to earn what we get because they won't give us anything via mistakes.

BC is +4 in turnover margin

This is good until you consider we are +9.

you talking about the same NC State team that lost by 15 to Wake Forest?

They have pieces on offense, not as much on defense

We'll be ready for them offensively, imo

Clemson opened as a 21 point favorite and I think we cover. It's hard to respect any team too much that lost to a poor Southern Cal team.
That said, Andre Williams, the RB for BC, is a very good back and is currently the second leading rusher in the ACC behind Duke Johnson from Maryland.
The challenge for our team is to stay focused, not take any oppoent too lightly, and not get caught looking ahead.

They'd have to outscored us...AT home.

Not gonna happen. No way, no how we turn the ball over that much. And even if somebody had a lead in a significant late stage, I'd anticipate us to counter quickly.

If you look at our stats vs. only common opponent (Wake)

It shouldn't be close. Of course, we had Wake at home and they on the road but we get BC at home.
They did hang pretty tough with FSU.
Hopefully the boys come to play like they have the last two weeks and we can stop sweating this one by halftime.

I think the bye week hurt our tempo and momentum.

There is no question, we played our worst game of the season against NC State and State probably played one of its best.
