10* College Bowl Game of the Week
(NCAAF) Penn State vs. Boston College,
Point Spread: 3.00 | -110.00 Penn State (Away)
Result: Win
The BC Eagles run the ball over 70% of the time, logging the 8th most rushing attempt per game and rank 11th in time of possession. :Penn has the defense and LB's to stop the run. Now they will face the #1 ranked rush defense of Penn State and the Lions have held the opposition to 84 yards per game on the ground. Linebacker Brandon Bell is slated to return for PSU after missing the final two games of the regular season, further improving that stout run defense. Christian Hackenberg makes the PSU offense go and his inconsistencies have largely led to the 6-6 record. With an extra month of practice I beleive that will really benefit Hackenberg with more time with WR's. Penn St also has Akeel Lynch and Bill Belton are serviceable runners DaeSean Hamilton has been a stud at receiver, grabbing 75 passes for 848 yards but has managed just one trip to the endzone and is about the only dependable option in the passing game. Penn St also has a very good kicker which may factor into this game. Take Penn State plus the 3 points here on Saturday evening.
