Boston College has already had a huge win this season as they took down USC. They have a couple of weeks respite here, as they handily beat Maine a week ago. They now take on a Colorado State team that may not get the attention they deserve, especially with a conference game on deck vs. NC State. The Rams took their opener against rival Colorado, who is much improved from a year ago, and then went to the blue carpet at Boise State and gave the Broncos a handful in a 13-point loss, marred by three turnovers that did them in. Despite the big win vs. USC, there is another side to this BC team, one that lost to Pitt by 10 points, but out-gained as well by nearly 150 yards. The Eagles don't have the margin for error with this team, and it is doubtful that we will see the "A" game here against the Rams in what appears to be a flat spot. The Rams have a way of sneaking up on teams that are not familiar with them, and they are 7-0 ATS in their last seven outside the conference. This one will be closer than it seems, so play on Colorado State.
