Boston College has been pretty close to even running and passing so if they can figure out how to keep Florida State on their toes, it will be a great chance to keep the game close. 

Their defense has struggled a bit as they are allowing 27.5 points on 366 total yards per game. They need to apply more pressure in the trenches as they allow 215 rushing yards per game up to this point.
