Boston College has covered the spread in four of their last five games facing Clemson.

Clemson crushed Louisville 77-16 in their last game where they racked up 661 yards including rushing for 492 yards. Star freshman Trevor Lawrence did not see much action in the blowout, but he has passed for nine touchdowns and only has one interception in his last four games. Travis Etienne leads four players that have at least 354 rushing yards with 998 rushing yards and 15 TD and he went for 153 yards in the win over Louisville.

Boston College has a balanced defense that ranks 40th in the nation against the pass and 49th against the run. Needless to say, they have a tall task in this game facing Clemson, who has scored at least 59 points in two straight and three of their last four games.

In their last game Boston College was on the road and they beat Virginia Tech 31-21. The Eagles only had four more overall yards (396-392), but they forced two turnovers while committing only one and they rushed for 219 yards. A.J. Dillon and Travis Levy combined to rush for 171 yards and three TD and their play will be key in this game. The more the Eagles can run the ball the more they can keep Clemson on the sidelines. Dillon leads the team with 897 rushing yards with eight touchdowns, despite missing two games, and previous to the Virginia Tech game he rushed for 310 yards in his previous two games. Dillon faces a stout Clemson run defense that ranks third in the nation.
