Boston College's defense is very good and I home I expect BC to come out strong. They rank 5th in the nation in points allowed, giving up just 10 points per game.

Although the loss of Jurkovec was devastating, there’s not an enormous drop-off to his backup Grosel.

Grosel is an experienced and underrated quarterback, who has been efficient when he’s seen the field.

The Boston College rushing attack is elite and should shred through this Missouri front-seven, which will allow Grosel to be more of a game manager.

Badie has contributed 32% of the total yards from scrimmage for Missouri and is the heartbeat of this offense. Boston College’s defense is one of the top groups in the country and will focus their attention on slowing down Badie, forcing someone else to step up.

The wrong team is favored in this game and I am backing Boston College at home to get the win.
