Boston College at Virginia Tech

Boston College has sure found the solution to their road woes that have plagued them over the last five years. They came into the season at 9-22. This year they have used a solid defense and a strong running game to come away with three wins in three tries on the road. Once again they will be in a favorable matchup as they grind out games, and Virginia Tech has not shown the ability to shutdown opponents' ground attacks. Virginia Tech, long known for being superb defensively, has certainly not done so this season as six different running backs have topped the 100-yard mark on them this season, and with the Eagles churning out close to 300 yards per game, they will have problems in this one. If that were not bad enough, last week the Hokies offense scored just 6 points. That is just the third time in the last decade that has happened. The Hokies are struggling on both sides of the ball while BC continues to build a strong resume for a good Bowl opportunity. Play on Boston College.
