Wake Forest at Boston College: 5 Big Questions
By Joe Micik
1. In a battle of senior quarterbacks, who has the better evening: Chase Rettig or Tanner Price?
Both senior quarterbacks have senior wide receivers who put up big stats, both quarterbacks have seen some success at this level individually, and both are coming off of decent performances.
On an overall statistical level, Price has seen more fortune as he’s thrown ten fewer interceptions, but does that mean anything? Not necessarily. At the end of the day, these quarterbacks might put up fairly comparable numbers. Keeping in mind again that Wake Forest is going to balance their offense more (and therefore pass less than they used to) and Boston College is going to continue to try to use the run, you will probably not get a game in which either quarterback throws 40 to 50 times.
The difference just might be that over his BC career, Rettig has typically saved his better games for home, while Price has been a little less productive on the road. It therefore would not be outrageous to suggest that Rettig might get the better of Price this time.
