The Florida State Seminoles will visit Boston College to battle the Eagles on Saturday morning.
The Seminoles have back-to-back wins to start the season. Florida State won Week 1 in Orlando over Brian Kelly and his LSU Tigers. The Seminoles then backed it up with a blowout win at home over Southern Mississippi.
For the Eagles, things have not started out as well. Boston College lost their Week One affair at home to Northern Illinois. In Week Two though, the Eagles bounced back and beat Holy Cross.
MyBookie’s College Football betting odds has Florida State as the massive favorites despite being on the road. Florida State is listed at -26 over the Eagles. The total for this game is at 48.5.

Eagles Struggling to Throw Football
The Boston College Eagles need to be able to throw the football more consistently. In the two games this season, the Eagles are averaging just over 184 yards per game in the air. That ranks outside the Top 100 in College Football. Thomas Castellanos is the quarterback and has been a better rusher than he has a passer.
Castellanos averages nearly 70 yards per game on the ground and has a touchdown. When they do pass the ball, Jaden Williams appears to be the top target. Williams has 105 yards on four receptions and a score this season.
The Eagles are one of six teams in the Atlantic Coast Conference that comes into the game with a 1-1 record. There are seven unbeaten teams, and Virginia has yet to win a game this season.
The Eagles will play three of their next four games on the road following this one. Boston College is at Louisville before hosting Virginia. Following that, the Eagles go on the road to Army and Georgia Tech.
Florida State Looks to Keep Rolling
The Florida State Seminoles know they have to come to each and every game prepared and ready to go, but this is a big one, as their first true road game. It’s also huge because they are on the road at Clemson next week. The Florida State coaching staff certainly wants to make sure they are not looking ahead at the Tigers.
The Seminoles are one of the top-scoring offenses in College Football. Florida State is averaging 55.5 points per game through two games. The offense has been good on both the ground and via the air.
Florida State has 303 yards in the air and 220 via the run. Keon Coleman, who came over from Michigan State, leads the team with four touchdowns.
Quarterback Jordan Travis has six touchdowns so far via the passing game. Travis has made a name and has entered the discussion for the Heisman. His running back, Trey Benson, continues to pound out yards, with 63 per game and three scores.
Florida State Wins; Eagles Cover
There is no doubt that the Florida State Seminoles are the better team. The Seminoles are very talented. Boston College has been nothing but just okay to start the season. But, there is a natural look ahead, even for the best teams and athletes in College Football.
Florida State will win this game, but the Boston College Eagles will compete for a while and cover the spread. Boston College plays just enough defense in this game and scores a few touchdowns to ensure they are covering.
The final score prediction for this game is the Florida State Seminoles 41-20 over the Boston College Eagles. This game certainly does not hurt Jordan Travis case for Heisman, as he has a big game on Saturday.
