Two teams trying to find the floor meet Saturday, and somebody has to stop the bleeding first.

[Florida State Seminoles](https://profootballnewshub.com/ncaa/teams/florida-state-seminoles) come in at 3-5 and have dropped three straight. [Boston College Eagles](https://profootballnewshub.com/ncaa/teams/boston-college-eagles) sit at 4-4 but are riding a one-game losing streak after getting run off their own field.

## Game details

- Where | Alumni Stadium (Chestnut Hill, MA)
- TV | ACC Network
- Line | Florida State Seminoles -6.5 | O/U 52.5 (market view)
- Florida State Seminoles record | 3-5
- Boston College Eagles record | 4-4

## The matchup

Florida State has lost three in a row by a combined margin that includes a 24-36 defeat to Clemson Tigers, a 35-43 loss to Miami Hurricanes, and a 20-44 setback against Louisville Cardinals. Before that stretch the Seminoles had won two straight, beating Virginia Cavaliers 38-7 and Central Arkansas Bears 34-7, so there's a team in there that can move the ball and score in bunches when things are clicking.

Boston College's week 9 result is the one jumping off the page: a 2-47 loss to Duke Blue Devils on the road. That came right after back-to-back wins, a 49-27 win over Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets and a 27-21 win over Pittsburgh Panthers, so the Eagles have shown they can win games before the wheels came off against Duke. Before that two-game run, Boston College had lost to SMU Mustangs 16-25 and Virginia Tech Hokies 14-21.

## Key matchups

This one comes down to which offense can find its footing. Florida State has outscored opponents 245-231 on the season, numbers that show a team capable of winning shootouts, which it did against Virginia and Central Arkansas. The question is whether that offense shows up or whether the version that got torched by Louisville and Miami turns up at Alumni Stadium.

Boston College has been outscored 173-212 this season, and that gap tells the story of a defense that's been stretched thin, never more obviously than in the 2-47 loss to Duke. If the Eagles can't tighten things up on that side of the ball, Florida State's offense should have room to work.

## The pick

Florida State is favored by 6.5 with a total of 52.5, and the market has this one going 30-23 in the Seminoles' favor. Boston College just got shut down in a 2-47 loss, and that's a tough form line to trust against a Florida State team that, even on a three-game skid, has already hung 38 and 34 points on opponents this season.

The pick here leans Florida State Seminoles to snap the streak on the road.
