What to expect as the Missouri Tigers and Boston College Eagles meet in this Week 3 college football game with our updated prediction.
This weekend brings us a notable SEC vs. ACC matchup that also serves as one of just two matchups with ranked teams on the same field, as No. 24 Boston College goes on the road against No. 6 Missouri in college football’s Week 3 action on Saturday.
But that was a time when Missouri was still looking for its identity, which the program appears to have found coming off an 11-win season that included a victory in the Cotton Bowl game. What can we expect from the matchup? Here’s what you should watch out for as Missouri and Boston College square off in this Week 3 college football game, with our updated prediction.Missouri wants to establish the run early on behind Nate Noel and Marcus Carroll to balance this offense, but they’ll run into a challenge against a BC front that ranks No. 7 in FBS in rush defense, allowing just 40.5 yards per game and all of 1.62 yards per carry on average.
Noel and Carroll have played well in replacing Cody Schrader in the backfield, an important key as Missouri looks to balance its offense out more and employ its star receivers and their speed advantage against a BC defense that can be exploited on the back end.In addition to Castellanos, the Eagles pose a credible threat to Missouri’s defense in the persons of tailbacks Treshaun Ward and Kye Robichaux.
