miami +14
and this is coming from a BC alum that follows his team closely. with the acc championship game next week, this is the is the ultimate 'looking past an opponent' scenario. other than it being the last game at the heights for the seniors, this game means very little to the eagles. it could be any team in the country on the other side of the field today and i think there would be problems with the kids staying focused. there's chatter among alums about winning to boost the resume in the case of a loss in j-ville, but that's certainly not a line of thinking the coaches have been presenting to the players this week.
a big goal this week is to get guys healthy. LB's dunbar and pruitt don't show up on the injury report, but i'd be shocked if they played more than a quarter of the plays on D. tribble's not going to see the field today. to be honest, i even think backup qb crane could see some snaps under center at some point
more reasons: OC logan doesn't want to show too much on offense (rather save it for UVA/VaTech). the home crowd will be weak(er than usual), as a good amount of students are still home on thanksgiving break.. and the 12:00 start means there's that much less time for the ones that are there to get themselves riled up for the game.
we're coming off of an enormous road win. we havent beat miami since the flutie game. miami is playing for their bowl life. i could on..
anyway, at the end of the day i still think bc wins this game. there is a lot of pride on the line, and i think that will ultimately surface in the second half after the eagles come out flat in the first. i absolutely hate picking against the eagles, but with a gun to my head, i say BC wins this one between 3 to 7 pts.
