a handoff to begin to Kyle robish and there the first statement play of the night for the Florida State defensive front Patrick pyton with a stop at the line of scrimmage BC will try and run it again and about four and a half for Rish ran Ward who spent his first four years here in Tallahassee to the right of castalanos and castalanos gets to the edge there is his Escape ability and he's got the first down on the ward stays in the game behind castalanos his first Carry against his old team and he pushes the pile for four now robell back in 217 lb tailb castalanos to throw as all day and he fits one in that's another BC first down Reed Harris the big 6'5 Target he has to control the middle of the line of scrimmage for the Florida State Defense galanos a little pitch fit the pocket starts to collapse slips one out on the edge nowhere from mcgallen to go that was a good read rifling up towards the line of scrimmage hard loss and pressure from Patrick pyton yeah you see there Patrick pton you're going to see him adjust his Rush Lane make sure that he keeps Thomas play action for castalanos on second down and long sidearms one Kamari Morales the tight end up the scene he gets about 10 he's going to put his cornerbacks on an island he believes in them thinks they can cover manto man again play action this time slip out in the flat to royell Williams and a strong tackle keep your eyes on that back judge so you know what the play clock stands absolutely just another responsibility put on Thomas castalanos here there Shawn Ward up the middle finds a bit of a crease and picks up about four Patrick Payton tripped him up it'll be third down and five for Boston College get the St send in five or more see if you can affect his timing there goes Lewis bond in motion castalanos looked that way comes back to the near side right at the first down line to gain mwan made the catch it depends on the spot and five at the line of scrimmage roboso goes right up the middle and that was something that Florida State fans saw way too much of last week he picks up eight on first down this offensive line in this Fleet of backs and right now they're doing it with great success no show again weagles his way breaks free through the secondary before he's finally brought down at the 37 yd line of Florida state held the ball for 8 and 1/2 minutes already in this opening quarter and they are in plus territory they keep it on the ground raan Ward up a pile again pushing third down and two castalanos into the flat Ward this time holds on finds his way for a first down on in motion fourman Rush castalanos finds the Crosser it's Babble caught tripped up right at the line to gain Lewis Bond his leading receiver from last year was able to beat DJ Lundy on the Crosser and pick up just enough for another Boston College third down conversion and then just really judicious play calling as far as the passing game is concerned kyash show again to the 5yd line before he's turned back oh it's got to be K ty robish show this is a guy who's a fourth down instead it's castalanos reaches the ball out at the goal line he's in that's a BC touchdown what a statement drive by Boston College and they take the lead Thomas castalano's our thousand-yard quarterback rusher we'll let him go ahead and do it and you just see here he just follows behind Dwayne Alex stretches out knee off the ground gets the ball across the plane it was like a clean easy touchdown but 14 plays 71 yds 9 minutes and 18 seconds Lucas on the return from the 2yd line Jaylen Lucas gets hit hard at about the 22 yd line here they come again another sidearm throw and that goes nowhere Austin in college with toofy in the flat wrapped up again by Carter Davis forces another three and out but second down and 10 and an empty back field for castalanos poor man Rush he's well protected now the pocket starts to collapse he gets free gets down the sideline and picks up about half again a four-man rush there's the whe route in this time Trac sh Ward makes sure down the sideline the same play where he dropped the football on the opening [Applause] possession quarterback run for castalanos and that's a [Music] negative castalanos floats one over the middle he's got a man and Jeremiah Franklin and he's inside the 10yd line back to the ground ATT 10 and they get attacked Patrick pton he didn't fall for the fake he dumps castalanos behind the line Second down and goal back to the 13 castalanos down for Ward at the pylon he slips inside for another buston College touchdown Tran Ward victimizes his old team and BC's got a two touchdown lead you're just going to see the confusion between Fen Charles ciphers and shahim brown he's back on the field facing second down and seven now play action steps away from the blitz off the edge picks up a block hit from behind and he's about a yard shy of the first down in the shotgun castalanos again well protected scans the field escapes the pocket looks to extend the play Sprints to the sideline he won't get there ridden out of bounds hard Cam Riley with the tackle [Applause] good push for the Freshman Cam Davis he picks up five EC brings a blitz young sets up Lucas he gets free inside the 15 sprinting inside the 10 oh there's the playmaker making a play first and go NOS a gain of 24 sometimes you just see it and it's just going to work out depending upon where certain guys are you can kind of get a feel for what an offensive coordinator's trying play with quick Tempa young can't avoid the sack down he goes Donovan isar Raku with a big sack for BC back outside the 10 that's a great pass rush by ezar Raku going up against Darius Washington who's a fantastic athlete you see him there with the arm over sets him up outside arm over inside and that is a rocku blue sack changed this entire possession and now Florida state has no choice but to settle for the field goal I know Chris Buon has has it documented how much time he has put in how he got up early every morning up facing third down here and PC is 6 for eight on third down he'll go down well short of the first down Daniel Lions didn't buy the fake and a little pushing and shoving after the play is over we'll see if DJ Lou angal can build off their last Drive Daniel Lions you see him right there he gets a little turned around but he's able to get himself oriented a lot of players showing pressure they'll Rush only four L angal tries to escape the pocket floats one out to Midfield terrific play by oui angal to jakai Douglas time he kept his eyes down field he absolutely that was just a simulated pressure again show 56 at the line of scrimmage drop him out Rush with [Applause] four well protected on first down here and makes BC pay that time the pass rush didn't get home and Malik Benson has a Florida State first down I would heat him up a little bit I would bring more than more than four they bring four short of the first down line to gain but not by much jakai Douglas reachs the ball out he's about a half yard shy and there he goes he gets the push and an easy fourth down conversion for OU angal U angal and that is a long throw for not much yardage to Malik Benson that will get the clock rolling Bob there came the pressure the boundary Corner Fire they brought five and played manto man in the back end Rush four here TI arms one slip it out of the back field get down inside the 10 yd line is royell Williams he's got a first down and stops the clock Ryan Fitzgerald from short range 24 yds away that's the second time though the Florida state has gotten down to the 6yd line and on both of those possessions they have had to settle for only [Applause] three weang out on the edge slips one in the flat and they try to get Jaylen Lucas involved early and that's probably a smart move he expects Florida State to try and take a shot down field during this drive it's how will they answer that and Florida state has a first down and a push for a little more as Cam Davis 224 lb true freshman picks up [Applause] eight and they go right back to Davis this time not nearly as much room he lost a yard [Applause] now BC does bring the blitz there's a completion so a feeling wrapped up though and immediately brought down about 5 yds shy of the first down one-on-one cover down here at the bottom of the screen and they will snap it out of hard cap a sidearm lob and it's [Applause] intercepted Max Tucker down the side line inside the 10 ydd line first and goal Boston College a chance taken by FSU and it blows up in their face he wanted to go down here to portier who had or portier who had one-on-one against Amari Jackson and had to pull it down you see him look and then he has to pull it down the pressure is getting to him he's trying to find somewhere to unload the football and Max Tucker is just sitting there waiting tips and overthrows defensive back no Aaron throws you just got to catch it that's not a panic move yeah it definitely definitely feels like panic in this situation trying to create some momentum castalanos to the goal line and BC converts raisha with the touchdown and the Eagles extend their lead running back out here in the flat you're getting a little natural pick route they're just kind of right now taking advantage to a filing in the game to the left of buang he will take the hand off and bounce it to turn the corner and gets ridden out of the 30 yd line do they continue to fight can they put together some drives Jet Sweep jaat Douglas lasso down across the 30 Mike norell said look we have to make a concerted effort to get him the football but you got to make the PLS ated mwan lets it bounce and it takes a sideways hop out of bounds inside the 5yd line Johnny Good's young children Matthews child on the way and all of their family and friends from everyone at ESPN Tran Ward out to the 25 yd line conditioning hydration all going to play a big part of this we head through the thir qu and now up the middle goes the Freshman turbo Richard and he lives up to his name and picks up 15 more yards you've just got and it's the hardest thing in the world to do in a situation like this four more yards down 21 to six here8 minutes to go in the third quarter castalanos tries to find an escape hatch gets to the sideline and comes up short some kind of impressive grow performance by BC wrapping up week number one in college football here's royell Williams to start this drive for FSU picks up four on the dive third and 11 after the timeout a roll out pressure coming we on time Jaylen Brown first down that's a big throw and a big third down conversion that's a huge throw look they just move the pocket get him sprinting to his right where he's looked much more comfortable tonight jayen runs a fantastic comeback round sticks his foot in the ground dropped the 10% with a loss to Georgia Tech it drops to 1% if they don't come back and win this game and now a trick play the throwback young takes a shot and Tron por here he's got it it's a gain of 29 and what happens as soon as they take Amari Jackson out of the game they go after the new guy Mari Jackson one of their best cover Corners their best cover Corner that's smart play call by Mike marll orer again fights his way through contact all the way to the end zone touchdown see him right down here at the bottom of the screen he's going to drive 15 yd down field before he breaks it off against Max Tucker to get Max Tucker out of his pedal make him think he's going up the field on a go route and you see him snap it off and now he just turns into an athlete he's big strong physical 63 22 lb former basketball player when I was down here last year he was one of the guys who stood out in practice he had such length and range and just pure size and right now you're starting to see who's going to emerge who Mike norell is going to call on and that's a fantastic long throw by DJ OU angay opposite hash putting the ball right on the money and now BC has it at their own 40 yd line and they'll go Jet Sweep McOwen no check that a counter play that's castalanos with a good fake castalanos again right up the middle he's got another first down second and long now you got to convert this to Third and long this is a important down cuz it frees up the defensive coordinator on third down breaking tackle Les is Ward all the way inside the 15 down to the 11 yd line it looked like aaria Thomas missed a tackle oh that is just gutting it's gutting you got to get him on the ground Zar Thomas I've seen him just absolutely knock people silly as a corner physical long he's got to give A Better Effort that's got to be a tackle right there he's got to be on the ground have it in that kind of moment and if you're Boston College you'll take it Rob show inside the 10 yd line down to about the seven third down and two inside the 5yd line roash show again submarines does he have it it depends on the [Applause] [Music] spot 65 330 lb Joshua farmer 63 318 rash show up the Middle with a flag down he's in the end zone for a touchdown I mean you see it there Drew Kendall Jack Conley Aussie trapillo just moving the line of scrimmage and then that you have Kai robish show who like I said just slightly under 220 lbs just look at the momentum and force and Pad level he's coming with a dynamic quarterback who opens up the offense and get makes them two dimensional that's a pretty darn good recipe zah holms nothing doing people go well you know what considering what you're what your uh pedigree is we believe you will invest so what he's doing is he's building this thing from the ground up base well not from the ground up but he's making the enhancements Bob and I got to expand the football operation and make it exactly what the big time football programs have he may not have all of that but I'll tell you what the proof is in the pudd it has you see it on the field big third down maybe get the ball again to protier at the top of the screen one-on-one coverage DC Blitz coming we left double clutch and that's right where they go OHS you saw that matchup they take advantage again just going against right kees Brown who's in now for hav seen come back in the game since he went out with those cramps with that hamstring and they've gone after BR ke a couple different times now now which is a smart smart move on the part of Coach Mike norell you are absolutely right Chris I was down there pregame I was like man back pedaling W angal and he just has to dirt the ball again it's aaru blowing that play up in the offensive backfield all over him and now a flag drops out grounding asaru is just right now giving Darius Washington the left tackle for Florida State Fitz you see he's been using the same move stabs him outside arm over when those kind of things start happening start a lot of self-doubt starts creeping in they probably have to just try to get to fourth down in manageable and then go for it only a three-man rush BC plays coverage and now it's going to be fourth down and 17 a check down to Cam Davis you look they might have a coverage bust down here they're tur and loose the slot oneon-one down here at the bottom of the screen as a blitz up off the edge Lou angal takes that shot into traffic incomplete so it's a fourth down stop for Boston College Landon Thomas was the intended receiver that's been the difference the playmaking ability of costalos is to be able to create when things break down it's just incredible Malik Benson is back deep to receive this kick and that ball bounces to it and he will pick it up and get dragged down inside the 15 yd Line This is one of the biggest road wins they've had in years if they could hold on here iang pocket collapsing he's got nowhere to go sacked again BC's third you see aala coming on the right side of your screen getting those hips turned flattening down the line of scrimmage Jaylen early to push him up field classic pass rushang steps up across the goal line he goes down again this time at the line of scrimmage George Rooks spins him down fourman rush the quick out to a it'll be fourth down and this team is carrying it out to a t turbo Richard starts this drive and he was right it's been 15 years since they have won eight [Applause] games asano brought down near the line of scrimmage it'll be third down being from town his wife going to BC this was in so many ways the perfect opportunity for him as castalanos gets wrapped up and goes down so Boston College will have to punt again Singleton is in the back fields with DJ OU angal as they begin this drive at their own 20 yd line J to the sideline and that has been his success rolling out to his strong side he hits Malik Benson close to a first down looks like he's got it Malik Benson fantastic athlete he's just someone they've got to find a way to get the ball to him down the field seam shot another completion now to about the 46 yd [Applause] line PC brings four L angal underneath for a gain of four wrapped up as du span that's his first catch Maybe 5 yd gain and there's a flag throw they've only got two timeouts left and the two-minute timeout as well so technically they've got three timeouts to help themselves as robish show runs into a wall of garnet and gold at about the 20 yd line I'm not justifying decision I'm I'm just saying this this is just Peak Peak frustration and and in essence it is waving the white flag and there goes castalanos spinning into the second with a first [Music] [Applause] half and that puts PC well over 200 yd rushing in the game at 216 total and they just they're just never sure and that's two weeks in a row with Haynes King last week and now with castalanos this week if this score hold s that will shake the core in the foundation of your locker room like hey man are we like what is happening here castanos on a counter keeper slides with a first [Applause] down the guys who they don't have to hold this locker room together when you're having guys who were making plays like this I mean last year remembered you had Jared bur Braden Fisk on this team who's going to hold it together here now that's what we're going to find [Applause] out Rob Belle four more down to the 39 yd line now that they're seeing that they're like man do you see what we're doing that is a powerful thing if they can kind of like get some consistency and repeat these performances Bill O'Brien comes from a background of History all about that he's got eyes for the endzone inside the 5 yd line down to the four and that brings us down to the two-minute timeout 35 more yards for kobasa as Bill O'Brien's era at Boston College begins with a win against a ranked opponent for BC for the first time in an opener since 1976
