Boston College at Clemson: 5 Big Questions
By Joe Micik
Jumping right in:
5.) BC’s going to improve upon their last game at Clemson, right?
In terms of total yardage (54, to be exact), yes. End result? I wouldn’t quite be so bold.
It’s awfully hard for a team — any team — to be so catastrophically incompetent and incapable to manage less than a yard per minute in a football game. It would be inconceivable to do it twice in consecutive road games against the same team, or more than once every couple decades for that matter, no matter how good that other team is.
Wofford managed very nearly 400 yards against the Clemson defense earlier this season, so I think Boston College is good for 55 or more. How many more is up for debate, but a performance as bad as the one they had in 2009 was so bad that it had to be an anomaly.
