FSU already got their season going last week in Ireland when they lost to Georgia Tech, while Boston College is getting their first action under a new coaching staff led by head coach Bill O'Brien.  This game will be broadcasted live on ESPNOur staff has spent this week compiling some great content to preview this match-up. Take a look:Roundtable: Boston College Football 2024 Season PreviewExpectations are all over the place for Boston College football this yearPreviewing the Florida State OffenseFlorida State Defense PreviewBetting Preview and PredictionWhat to Watch ForIs it the year of Tommy Touchdowns? While Bill O'Brien is the new face in town, Thomas Castellanos is going to be the face of this new-look Boston College team. Now with a full offseason to prepare as QB1, and an offensive guru as head coach, will TC show us a big step forward? His passing game is especially important if BC wants to open up the middle of the field for their deadly running attack.Will DJU get going? The Florida State offense is only returning https://www.bostoncollegeshop.com four starters from last season, and their new quarterback DJ Uiagalelei did not look great in his first game as a Seminole. He passed for 193 yards, rushed for 7, and threw no TDs. BC's defense has a lot of question marks though, especially in the secondary, so it remains to be seen if the Eagles can hold him to a similar performance this week.Can the BC defensive line turn it around? FSU's greatest strength on offense so far has been their run game. And while BC's defensive line has a lot of talented players like Donovan Ezeiruaku, they performed way below expectations last season. They will need to step up their game by a lot in 2024 if the Eagles want to apply any sort of pressure on opponents' offenses.Tailgate Treat of the WeekIn honor of the late Johnny Gaudreau, and his brother Matthew, my pick for the week is... Skittles. Prediction: Boston College 28 Florida State 27Screw it! Despite everything I said in the offseason about this being a difficult game to win, FSU proved last week that they are incredibly beatable. With a long flight coming back from Ireland earlier in the week, and a shell-shocking loss to Georgia Tech, I think FSU is vulnerable and the Eagles are well-rested and well-prepared enough to take advantage. Roll Eags, baby! Football is back!
