Boston College vs. Florida State Full Game Replay | 2024 ACC Football

so Boston College will start with the football they've got a B and Jad and mcgaan back deep a try and receive it's going to sail over his head so here comes Thomas castalanos the junior quarterback and he put up historic numbers last season the first quarterback in school history with 2,000 passing yards and 1,000 rushing yards the only two quarterbacks that have ever had more total yards in a season at Boston College Matt Ryan and Doug fluty and he was at his best against Florida State he sure was he was a guy who right out of the gate showed you the Dual threat capability that he has he will have all of it in his Arsenal quarterback draw quarterback power Zone Reed but it's the passing game that's what is the next phase of his development Bill O'Brien is excited about it said he has made tremendous strides now we get to put it to the they are having clock issues here at dop Campbell stadium so they're keeping time on the field that's why you won't see it on our screen until they get things figured [Applause] out a handoff to begin to Kyle roasa 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 and again that was the theme Lewis opening day for Florida State they got got knocked back by Georgia Tech that has to be a good sign for the nlls first snap of the night no question about it look you saw the two defensive tackles darl darl Jackson Jr number six Joshua farmer number five these guys are absolute freak shows when you're talking about pure athletic ability hold the point of attack do not let them de the front of this defense that's a great start DC will try and run it again and about four and a half for Risha that'll set up third down a long five for Boston College just shy of Their Own 30yd Line physicality that's something Bill O'Brien wants out of his offensive line so you see it right away they're going to make sure you can stop the run and they're going to make sure that defensive coordinator Adam Fuller has an answer for that and now but see now is where he wants to see that development on display with Thomas castalanos can you pick up a crucial third down on the road here in the first drive and keep the offense on the field Tre Shan Ward respect his first four years here in Tallahassee to the right of castalanos and castalanos gets to the edge there is his escapeability and he's got the first down on the keeper first down Bost College you see Marvin Jones the defensive end number seven you're going to see him at the top of your screen on the right you can't lose contain when you're going up against a guy like Thomas castalanos you have to be disciplined in your Rush lanes because this guy is a threat to break it anywhere at any time when he decides to pull it down so it's not just about your physicality it's about playing smart against this young man because that's how he can hurt you ward stays in the game behind castalanos his first Carry against his old team and he pushes the pile for [Applause] four there you see the physicality up front Drew Kendall number 66 the center the left guard Dwayne Alec number 53 getting that push at the point of attack on to a farmer and that is something that they're going to have to have an answer for here at Florida State because Bill O'Brien is not going to let up whereas he wants to put the ball in the air it's the physical aspect of the game that's how Georgia Tech tested Florida state they're getting tested with it here tonight now Roba back here 27lb tailb back atilanos to throw as all day and he fits one in that's another BC first down Reed Harris the big 6'5 Target as we take look at our impact players built by the Home Depot there's some good ones on both sides of the football here some really Dynamic players we already talked about Thomas castalanos and his ability as a dual threat quarterback Donovan Naraku on defense the defensive end he's going to be a guy who's going to have to get after DJ ouay when you're talking about Florida State when they get the ball La Lawrence TOA one of the best run receive combination running backs in all of college football and Josh with farmer we already talked about 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 mallan to go that was a good read rifling up towards the line of scrimmage was Kevin nolles from his nickel spot that's a 5yd loss and pressure from Patrick pyton yeah you see there Patrick pyton you're going to see him adjust his Rush Lane make sure that he keeps Thomas castelos on his inside shoulder but you just see the slippery of castalanos how he can buy time and just continue to keep his eyes down the field and find an outlet I tell you as your defensive linan it's no fun going up against guys like this because not only is it is it a drain on you from an assignment perspective you could have chased this guy around all night play action for castalanos on second down and long sidearms one Amari Morales the tight end up the seam and he gets about 10 so that makes it again third down and manageable and opens up that BC Playbook in plus territory third down and five yeah just a nice little play design as far as the play action fake get everybody flowing to the left and then you just see the tight end just leak out castalanos hits him and you're able to get a little catch and run where you make it to Third and manable as you mention Bob and this is a great start here on the road first drive you don't know what your team's going to really respond like I think for Bill O'Brien you have to be in please at this point eighth play of the drive again the clock not functioning that's why it's not on your screen they're keeping time on the field fourman Rush wide open a little wheel route and Ward drops the ball oh that was an easy first down pickup and then some and the former seminal couldn't hold on and now Boston College on fourth down and five at the plus 40 yd line will send out the punt group and you see Tre Shan Ward you're going to see him right here he's just going to come out of the backfield and he has nothing but green grass this is going to be a huge play is this going to be a down the sideline and he just kicks his eyes off the football probably looking at a Defender seeing how he's going to make the guy Miss in the open field so he can break it for a big one perfect play call so Sam kandadi looking for the corner and that is inside the pylon it looked like it may have crossed the goal line and it did for a Touchback that close to pinning Florida State deep but it will come out to the 20 yd line so florid state gets a break gets a stop and OU young has it [Music] next and Lou that a special teams play that cost PC 20 yards yeah it's going to be a big factor in this game you got to play smart being know just park yourself right there on the Gold Line keep it from breaking the plane and you're good so Florida State to the offense for the first time but a broken up pass so DJ OU angal tried to Rifle one up the seam and Amari Jackson got a hand in to knock it away so just like like that it's second down and 10 yeah the ability of the Florida State wide receivers to defeat man coverage defensive coordinator Tim Lewis at Boston College 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 Carter Davis an impact red shirt freshman he can play safety he can play Corner during Camp he rifled up the depth chart he rifled up to make a stop there coming from distance coming from depth making tackles against athletes of the caliber of Florida State that's a toughest sment that's a good early sign as far as the fundamental tackling of Boston College defense will DC bring the blitz on third down now Rush five angal can't beat the blitz it went right through the hands of to aili it looked like so a three and out for Florida State he had him he had him matched up here number three in the slot and just runs a little out route and you're going to see it right there he's number three in the slot number nine toofy has the one-on-one coverage that's just a misfire that you can't afford to have talked about Toof in the open as being one of the best dual threat running backs as far as being a runner and a receiver out of the back field a receiver lined up in wide receiver formations so we've already seen both offenses miss a wide open play on third down Jaden McGowen with a fair catch at the Boston College 29 yd line 47 yd punt BC has it back scoreless here in the [Music] first for you to look at you don't win this football game you have a 1% [Applause] chance with the football team coming off a 13-0 season high expectations I mean tonight it doesn't get it doesn't get any more tense than this every single play matters every possession matters 914 to go in the first quarter and a hand off to roasa and Chris button is down on the Florida state bench and Chris they're trying as best they can to keep the time on the field they are it it does get a little chaotic but you have to rely on communication there is one official who is keeping track of the clock after each Drive they will go and tell each team what the time is for the play clock the back judge will put his hands both hands in the air when there's 15 seconds left he will drop one hand when there's 10 seconds left and then countd down from there and that's just the responsibility then Le of the quarterback 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's 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 and as we are approaching the Midway point of this first quarter but again clock difficulties here in Tallahassee so soon as they get that fixed you'll see the clock reappear on our screen but we will do our best to keep you up tained until then now it's going to be interesting with do defensive Adam Fuller defensive coordinator Adam Fuller what does he dial up here you have to be conscious as we talked about already about Rush Lanes do not let castalanos buy time get outside on the perimeter but at the same time you have to start pressuring this young man you have to start sending 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 Macwan made the catch it depends on the spot ell Cyprus closed the distance made the stop but it looks like without measurement they're going to say it is a BC first down the L to the football and we talked about what does the defensive coordinator Adam Fuller what's he going to do is he going to send five or more you see there it's just a simulated Blitz simulated pressure where they make it look like they're going to send five or more but they drop someone out and still just send four that time it was linebacker DJ Lundy blitzing in the a gap just trying to change the looks trying to make sure the castalanos does not get comfortable and five at the line of scrimmage roash show 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 it's a key to the game can you keep this team from running for over 100 yards can you keep this team under four yards for carry and right now they are just going right behind the guys who Bill O'Brien told us are some of their best players namely Drew Kendall the center who's on the REM Remington award watch list as one of the best centers in college football he is going to lean on his strength which is this offensive line in this Fleet of backs and right now they're doing it with great success El show again weagles his way breaks free through the secondary before he's finally brought down at the 37 yd line of Florida State boy how many tackles did he have to wiggle through to pick up 16 yds that is just something that you just can't allow to happen as you see he did he lost the football and it was picked up by Reed Harris Johnny on the spot the wide receiver but again you're seeing the physicality the physicality of this Boston College offensive line in this running game and what it's going to do it's going to force the defensive secondary to start coming down into the box Bob and they're going to take a shot over top in due time what a break for BC roash show loses it and Harris found it it looks like a flag was [Applause] dropped recy by the and now they're going to go back and take a look at the robas show fumble where Reed Harris Advanced it so a fluky play that went Boston College's way as the ball popped free found its way to Harris it's time for Austin College is on the March they have held the ball for 8 and a half minutes already in this opening quarter and they are in plus territory they keep it on the ground ran Ward up a pile again pushing this again a disturbing Trend Lewis even though a flute play gain them some extra yards they have picked up a bunch of yards on the ground so far they sure are they're averaging over six yards of carry so far in this game and there you see linebacker Cam Riley with the strip then you see Reed Harris pick it up but what you are seeing is the interior of the Boston College offensive line they're dominating this football game right now and that's something that we said look Daryl Jackson Jr Joshua farmer you have to step up in this game Boston's playing Boston College is playing to its strength and they're doing it with success Ward runs again and this time gets stood up and driven back not much on second down about two yards Cam Riley the Auburn transfer stepped up and made the stop that's one of the things you need to see you need to see the linebackers Cam Riley the transfer DJ Lundy these guys have to play downhill and play physical and fit with a with a Vengeance and with hurry and with a lot of precision because this running game is one of the very best the more you watch Boston College you're going to recognize this is one of the best rushing teams in college football and if your assignments aren't on point they will gas you and you're seeing it play itself out right now early in this game third down and [Applause] two castalanos into the flat Ward this time holds on finds his way for a first down so another third down conversion for Boston College again the clock they being they are keeping the time on the field as Blake Nicholson made that stop for Florida State and this watch Tran Ward here you're going to see the fake here and you're going to see him just dribble out over here and watch Thomas castalanos he sells the wyver screen invites The Rush In And then you just see trewn ward he just does his thing in the open field picking up the first down again nice play design nice play call they are locked in Boston College on offense romes Show game tackle near the line of scrimmage no gain on first down Nicholson who got the start tonight alongside DJ Lundy linebacker was there to help on the stop gain of maybe a yard it'll be second and N now you got him down here in second and nine this is where you need to T typically you want to send some pressures here you got to be aware of the screen game on second and long but this is where you have to make sure that they don't get it to a manageable down and distance see if you can create a turnover create a sack push him back in terms of maybe knocking them out of field goal range this is a crucial down here as we're in the high Red Zone just outside the 20 yd line DC having a little problem getting lined up they get the snap off board goes up the middle into the Red Zone picks up three so another third down coming for Boston College but they're three for four on third down so far and defensive coordinator Adam Fuller he's tried a number of different things in terms of playing man-to-man coverage some simulated pressures nothing's really worked so far he's going to continue to try and gain intelligence here cuz he's never seen this offense before so he's trying to figure out what their Tendencies are what they like to go to you wonder here with third and just just about six yards and maybe five does he bring some pressure does he bring five does he try and speed up the decision making of Thomas castalanos here third down and six on in motion fourman Rush castalanos finds the Crosser it's Babble caught tripped up right at the line to gain Lewis bond is leading re 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 you just see Lewis bond in that trip set just bring him in short motion and then just run the underneath Crosser and he just uses the traffic to his Advantage no pressure in Thomas castalano's face has to double catch it but DJ Lundy doesn't have a chance he was trying to work his way through traffic they weren't getting any pressure they Rush with four another good pick up for Boston College Ro Michelle to about the 9yd line picks up three on first down and again we're estimating the time as best we can they're keeping it on the field the clock not functioning here at do Campbell stadium so we're towards the end of the first quarter and it's a first quarter that Boston College has had the ball for all but about 50 seconds 1 three and out for fla State that's the only time they've had the ball theyve continued to press on the sore spot of Florida State's defense run defense in between the A and B gaps and then just really judicious play calling as far as the passing game is concerned Kyro B show again to the 5 yd line before he's turned [Applause] back the five Lewis any doubt you think where BC goes oh it's got to be K ty roer 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 and quarterback power they figure if we don't give it to roash show we'll let 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 look like a clean easy touchdown but this offensive line they are the story of this football game and conversely for Florida State it's the inability to hold the point of attack and hold the opponent to other under four yards for carry they're right now giving up over five yards for carry that's not a recipe for success and the former Tick Tock try out kicker Luca Lombardo with his first point as he knocks through the Pat and BC has a 7 nothing lead and a very dist disturbing long double digit Drive touchdown drive against continues for the Florida State Defense you see you see Dwayne Alec filling in for Logan Taylor the regular starter at left guard on the pull gets a clean block you see robish show on the edge he's secures The Edge against the safety Conrad hussy and they just got a seene and they just creased in front too late for shyen brown to make a difference it's coming from from too too much depth and Thomas castalanos look he may be a guy who's listed program weight at 196 PBS I can assure you this he is put together in his lower half and he may be a smaller quarterback by ideal standards but this guy is a problem and Florida State knows it coach norval told us he is a guy we have got to have some answers for and now DJ U angal has to have an answer they have to punch this ball in and respond Moment of Truth 14 plays 71 yds 9 minutes and 18 seconds Lucas on the return for the 2yd line Jaylen Lucas gets hit hard at about the 22 yd line and this Saturday on ABC and ESPN Plus at 3:30 Eastern South Carolina squares off against Kentucky and then at 730 number 15 Tennessee I'll take on number 24 NC State terrific double header coming up featuring some SEC teams this coming Saturday when week two arrives in college football this is the final game of week one and we have a functioning clock as you can see it's kind of it it's did you just realize what you how much you depend on that and being able to see it only the second offensive possession of the game for Florida State only their fourth play from scrimmage in royell Williams picks up three is George Rook makes the stop for Boston College remember when we talked to head coach Mike norell I asked him I said are you reaching a point where there's just certain guys who you have to feature you have to get the ball to guys who you can count on and based on practice and what we observed look royell Williams is going to be one of those guys that he needs to get the ball to and then where is Malik Benson how do you get him involved in the passing game down the field in the outside Lane got to get the ball number 10 look at BC crowding The Tackle Box a lot of bodies up at the line of scrimmage in pursuit of a angal who has to sidearm one short looking for jakai Douglas it'll be third down and seven as he had to hurry that throw they like to change the platform and change the launch point for DJ oay I honestly look when you're rolling to your left like that big body like that it's hard to get himself situated and get his shoulder square and get an accurate throw off you wonder if Tim Lewis would bring those kind of looks on third down he's bringing those looks on second down does that surprise you not at all if you know Le's history going back to his days as defensive coordinator with the Pittsburgh Steelers New York Giants in the NFL that is the name of the game for him five or more here they come again another sidearm throw and that goes nowhere Austin College with toofy in the flat wrapped up again by Carter Davis forces another three and out and the seal fans do not like what they see from their offense and they're letting them hear about it right now at do Campbell Stadium there's Tim Lewis's Pittsburgh lineage it's really he's showing like they're going to come with a zero Blitz look and they just drop out it's just another simulated pressure and they're just flatfoot it meaning they're not gaining any depth they expect the quarterback to get rid of the ball quickly they're sitting on the routes and you see the safety Carter Davis just drive downhill and make the tackle just make the tackle before he gets to the first down marker and we're good textbook execution Master Mano Line Drive punt a broken tackle for Jaden Macwan gets to the sideline and gets to the 33 yd line with an 8- yd return Austin College up by seven and they've got it back one the scoring drives last week touchdown drives all over 75 yards for Georgia Tech they ended the game with a 6 and 1 half minute 12-play field goal drive and how about that last BC touchdown drive as a as a former defensive player that's just a brutal brutal Gra right there that right there is a absolute heart like just gut-wrenching heart stealing bunch of Statistics that hit you right at the core as a defensive player if a team can run the football possess the ball in this kind of heat on your home field that is something that makes you start questioning yourself as that continues they they need a big stop here get the offense the ball back in good field position and then they need to find some Rhythm but they have got to to get a stop here and get off the field well they get it started with an incompletion on first down so now it's second down and 10 and an empty backfield for castalanos fourman Rush he's well protected now the pocket starts to collapse he gets free gets down the sideline and picks up about [Applause] [Music] half he turned nothing into something avoided a sack Daryl Jackson got through but he got free makes it third down at about five see again it's about rushing with Lane discipline if you're the left defensive end if you're out on the edge you have to make sure that you stay at quarterback depth and do not get sucked inside because castalanos it's never over with him it's never over Rush lanes are so important when they're only sending four key key third down here Bob key third down third down and six and BC has been tremendous so far on third down as you can see again a four-man rush there's the wheel route in this time Tran Ward makes sure down the sideline the same play where he dropped the football on the opening possession this time he doesn't drop it they went right back to the well and he picked up 44 this is what you're going to see you're going to see this this and then he's just going to sneak out and the linebacker can't get there you see him staring in the back field instead of making sure he doesn't get outflanked [Applause] quarterback run for castalanos and that's a negative ends up losing it looks like a yard back to the 23 yd line that's of Florida State it was the perfect play call for man coverage the linebacker is going to get pinned inside he's going to have to fight through traffic on that double slant route and have to get out there quickly otherwise he gets out flank then it's a foot race down the sideline how about will long right he's a first time play caller for Bill O'Brien how's that look to you so far hey so far I'll tell you what they have kind of dialed in on what defensive coordinator Adam Fuller likes to do by down in Distance by situation and they're calling the right plays at the right time this this going to be up to Florida State now to make a play somebody up front has to make a play castalanos floats one over the middle he's got a man and Jeremiah Franklin and he's inside the 10yd line down to the nine it's first and goal DJ Lundy tripped him up you just see Jeremiah Franklin on the line of scrimmage there you see there just a little influence block to invite the defensive end up field and then sneak out over the middle as castalanos just gives some ground invites the rush in again the screen game we've seen various different forms of it in this game where as you mentioned will Long and Bill O'Brien they are in it right now they are kind of locked in in terms of what they want to get done relative to this defense and you see him just moving the football up and down the field back to the ground attack and they get attacked Patrick Payton he didn't fall for the fake he dumps castalanos behind the line that's what you need you need one of your big dogs to make a play Patrick pton is going to be one of these guys who you'll see on Sundays and he's got fantastic measurables 65 250 lbs he's put on weight this off season so he can be stronger against the Run he has to make some plays he has to be one of these guys who athlete for athlete gets a guy like Thomas castalanos has to win his fair [Music] share not sure if the officials are coming in they're going to have a discussion about the spot nearly 5 minutes gone by here in the second quarter and BC in range to extend their lead both teams taking advantage kind of a pseudo timeout here neither team has called timeout and now they're going to call the teams back on the field I think they got the spot ironed [Music] out again we had clock issues in case you're just joining us all the way through the first quarter the clock wasn't functioning in the stadium so they had to keep the time on the field and now they're winding the clock back up and we approached 10 minutes ago before halftime so after that negative play haon The Tackle for loss 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 they don't pass it off the switch release and you see right there you can see shyen Brown's Body Language they didn't talk it out as far as whether they were going to pass it off or lock that combination around and when you don't talk down there in the Red Zone things happen too quickly and they result in six classic miscommunication wow go Campbell stadium in shocked silence a seven playay 68 back in Tallahassee bab wasan alongside Lewis rck Chris Buon with us as well Boston College with a dominant first 20 minutes 14 to nothing they lead Florida State so if you're looking for that FSU response off the lost to Georgia Tech in London last week you have not gotten it so far they have run six offensive plays to BC's 29 Austin college has had the ball 1772 minutes Florida State 2 and 1/2 minutes they're about to get the ball back now but Lewis BC just capped another impressive drop yeah Bill Bill O'Brien and offensive coordinator will long they are locked in these are the two guys you want to keep an eye on and that's fentel Cypress and Shaheen Brown the corner in his safety cuz what you're going to get here in this man coverage you're just going to get a little pick route or really a little combination R I don't want to say pick route you just have to communicate that are you going to lock it or you going to pass it off right there you see them both they turned both guys loose because pre- snap they didn't communicate it they weren't on the same page and as a former secondary player I can tell you this most big plays when you're watching football are because of miscommunications in the back end there's a perfect example quarterback run right up the middle and right into the arms of C horley let's go down to Chris yeah Bob this is the first year that you can use the technology of the tablets on the sideline Mike norell told us yesterday he's not a huge fan of it he'd rather trust his eyes live but things aren't going very well on offense you'll use whatever technology you can get after the last possession he's spent a long time on the iPad went over and related some things to his offensive line DJ angay has been using it during the entire time while they're sitting he's back on the field facing second down at 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 Lewis you made the point on the other line NFL coaching staff might have an advantage in this Green Dot era we're now in in college football absolutely when you can talk to the Green Dot player one player designated on the field until the play clock hits 15 seconds these guys are used to doing it Bill O'Brien's used to doing it will Long's used to doing it Tim Lewis the defensive coordinator he's talking to cam Arnold up to 15 seconds now incomplete on third down it's going to be another three and out for Florida State theed Johnson there in coverage on Jaylen Lucas and here comes the punt group the pressures are just starting to get to DJ now because Tim Lewis is starting to dial up some fiveman pressures with different twists on the inside and he's just telling his Corners in the back end hey look that Ball's going to come out quick stay true to your Technique he told us in the production meetings he believes in Amari Jackson he believes in Max Tucker kri Johnson Carter Davis all the names that you've been calling out who have been making plays against a real good wide receiver Corp of Florida State they just can't get loose asano with a terrific punt he's going to drive mcgall he fumbled the football at first now breaks a eventually gets gang tackled at the 10 yd line but did well to recover and just Escape his own goal line feel uncomfortable and right cuz right now he's in it he's like I can do whatever I want they run it with roash show up the middle there's the other part of it Bob that run up the middle those four and 5 yd runs that just absolutely just take a chunk out of you every time when it's second and six second and five it's hard to call defenses when they constantly got you in that either or downward distance they can either run it or they can throw it that's tough for a defensive [Music] [Applause] coordinator C salanos at the 5yd line he's going to take a deep shot incomplete he had a step for Reed Harris but let him just a bit too far they are getting absolutely no push whatsoever the pocket look look perfect it looks absolutely perfect just look at castalanos he's just sitting there patting the football he's just waiting he's just waiting for the wide receiver to uncover he's saying Reed Harris let's go let's go get down the middle of the field and he just misses him he has him on the Deep Over route and just overthrows it and he beat a pretty good corner right there in fentrell Cyprus who was a darn good man cover corner and had him for a big explosive play could have been a big play for BC and instead it's a third down and now Bill O'Brien's going to run down the sideline and call a [Applause] timeout after the Miss deep shot the play clock was all the way down to two Bill O'Brien saw it and called timeout [Music] this Saturday on ABC and ESPN Plus at 3:30 Eastern South Carolina takes on Kentucky and then at 7:30 number 15 Tennessee we'll square off with number 24 NC State over on the ACC Network starting at noon Eastern SAR acuse meets Georgia Tech at North Carolina against Charlotte will cap the night with number 14 Clemson squaring off against Appalachian State lots of college football ready to come your way in week two we're capping week one Boston College six for seven on third down after the BC timeout 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 and Florida state gets the stop they needed and Boston College will have to punt that is a huge play by Cam Riley Bob he was able to really break the contain here you see Marvin Jones he's trying to get over the top and trying to keep him in the pocket you're going to see Marvin Jones come out here at the top of your screen he can't make the play Cam Riley gets on his horse is able to track him down before he gets to the line the gain otherwise it's a fresh set of downs for Boston College that's a huge play for the Florida State Defense Midway through the second quarter those snap now he just gets it away it may have been deflected on the way out it's going to be great field position for Florida State this is just what we talked about the tide had to turn some way somehow whether it be the defense getting off the field providing this offense with a short field special teams put some pressure on the punter makes him hurry his process and you see it there the punter has to move he can't get a good clean kick good clean operation this is just what the doctor ordered now DJ W young what are you going to do who are going to be the guys that Mike norell goes to who's he going to dial up you see the Freshman Cam Davis is in at running back number three who's an absolute tank do they start to try and get him going get this run game going they've got Lawrence to ailly as a receiver nearest look for the deep overshot as part of the three- wide receiver set wangal long throw incomplete for TOA Ked Johnson was draped on him in coverage it'll be second down and 10 he just got to be able to hit those throws those timing throws see it here tonight I mean the accuracy you just can't he has a clean pocket to feel is just running an out route I know it's a long throw from the opposite hash he's just got to be able to complete those [Applause] good push for the Freshman Cam Davis he picks up five it will be third down and five KP price made the stop this has to be four down territory it almost feels like for Florida State after a 20yd punt yeah and getting dominated the way that they have so far here in the first half it almost feels like this is touchdown or bust just to swing the momentum in this game before Hal time who do you who do you call on here now you see the transfer Jaylen Lucas in the slot number three in the slot to this trip set down here he's a dynamic playmaker BC 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 goal NOS a gain of [Applause] 24 sometimes you just see it and it's this going to work out depending upon where certain guys are you can kind of get a feel for what an offensive coordinator is trying to do dalen lookas in the slot the number three position play with quick Tempo young can't avoid the sack down he goes Donovan isar Raku with a big sack for BC back outside the 10 to about the 13 yd line 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 you see Darius Washington stop his feet drop his head you're going to lose every time ezar Raku is one of those guys that defensive coordinator Tim Lewis said was the first guy in his office when they got hired and said what do you need me to do just tell me what you need me to do I'll get everybody on board OU young in trouble again and he misses on a sidearm screen Roy Dell Williams now it's going to be third down and goal from the 13 yd line those are those plays that the DJ is just having a tough time with right now that can you change the arm angle throw the football with consistency and just have it match up have it match up where you can give the running back a chance to catch it and then make something happen they have just been a tick off all night long [Applause] you see a fourman rush seam route Enzo broken up BC played coverage and Kyle Morlock couldn't haul it in cam Arnold the linebacker got a hand in the passing Lane best on best we saw them try to work Kyle Morlock in practice on these routes down in the Red Zone they wanted to get the ball to him Mike norell told us look he's too good of a player he has to get his touches but he was mached up against one of the best players on BC's defense cam Arnold came to BC as a defensive back transitioned to linebacker defensive coordinator Tim leis loves it says he can do it all and he did it right there and that is aaku sack changed this entire possession and now Florida state has no choice but to settle for the field goal that gets them on the board but Boston College after only a 20yd punt and Florida State having great field position hold to three and this season all state will celebrate every field goal and extra point made by participating universities by making a donation to The University's General scholarship fund thank you to all state that's a win for BC's defense in a big way leis yeah it sure is hold them to three when you give them a short field to work with and you just see how close they are though that being Florida State's offense you can see who they're going to probably start going to here right you have to get the ball to Jaylen Lucas you have to get the ball to Morlock you have to run the football maybe get Cam Davis in there a little bit more use his power and his stoutness to establish a physicality but you know what none of it works unless DJ U angal settles into a rhythm for young can one little slant to a Lucas like that can one play like that get a quarterback started I mean sure I mean you saw you saw how he did it over in Ireland against Georgia Tech in the fourth quarter where he hits those two fourth down big throws like look he's a guy who look all the experience that he has he has to rely on that look it's next play next play next play It's the moment of truth right again we've been talking about it his is right now it's right now well Thomas castalanos on the other side as put together some big time scoring drives tonight I and he's just a guy who is just so athletic that if you don't rush with Lane discipline that's how he burns you he will extend plays and just wear your defense out quarterback power down on the goal line told you he's not a small guy at all he can run the football with authority and there there's the play calling of will Long and Bill O'Brien together getting a good feel for what defensive coordinator Adam Fuller wants to do by situation and they're making the right calls and so far they have executed darn near flawlessly his efficiency as well as castalano's 9 of 12 for 102 yds a touchdown rushing a touchdown passing and Ward dieses up the middle and for castalanos that was really the question wasn't it we knew he was a dynamic playmaker but he was mistake prone last year he only had one more touchdown pass than interceptions yeah right 15 touchdowns is great 14 interceptions not so great 57% completions not so great he looks like he's combining efficiency with big time playmaking today he's put in the work he's put in the work he dedicated himself since Bill O'Brien was hired I know Chris Buon has has it documented how much time he has put in how he got up early every morning and started doing work before any of the other players were even in the facility going through practice scripts dedicating himself to trying to be the best quarterback he can be yeah Chris how about that dedication from castalanos an alarm clock that goes up before any of the three of us 500 a.m. wake up he would get to the facility at 5:30 from 5:30 to 6:30 he would run through the script that they would use in practice so that he would make sure that he would know it all before they got in there they go they practice he watches film relentlessly when we were talking to him this week he had the Georgia Tech game pulled up on his screen up facing third down here and PC is six for eight on third [Applause] down they'll go down well short of the first out Daniel Lions didn't buy the fake and a little pushing and shoving after the play is over so that's back to- back stops now for the Florida State Defense they will force a punt and still with three and A2 minutes on the clock FSU has their timeouts we'll see if DJ Loui 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 and still f where Thomas castalanos is better late than never that's the kind of heads up play as a defensive lineman against a quarterback like this that'll pull it down on you in a moment's notice that's the kind of play you have to [Applause] make Line Drive kick Lucas with a fair catch at the 24 yd [Music] line this Saturday the college game day crew will be live from Ann Arbor Desmond Howard will go all access Shon Moore as he takes over as the head coach of the national champions will also go all access with Texas quarterback Quinn Ur Texas Michigan is the site and it's college game day built by the Home Depot will be on site just outside the big house that should be a scene no question no be a scene no question I'll tell you what else is going to be a scene the mood around here if they don't put this ball in the end zone here soon I tell you you got to start calling on certain guys man that that you know can make plays for you you got to start dialing up some looks for him fourman rush we Ang long throw outside the numbers incomplete he tried to find Jaylen Brown and the heat was coming it looked like aaru with a speed rush just about got to U angal as he let that one go Donovan eeru looks fantastic he is right now just giving Darius Washington the left tackle all he can handle OU unlay trying to throw that long opposite hash comeback route to Jaylen Brown just can't get enough on it again just off just a little [Applause] bit play action sidearm throw bobbled incomplete that time Malik Benson couldn't hold on now it'll be third down and 10 a flag down on the near side of the fields in the secondary Max Tucker on the coverage the penalty is against Florida [Applause] State down 52 so Boston College rather than make it it second and 15 will take the down to make it third down of 10 with 251 to go in the half BC still with two timeouts correction college has accepted the 5yd penalty from the previous spot repeat second down they' accept the foul repeat second down what do you think Le would you take the penalty there BC changes their mind they take the five yards rather than the down you like second and 15 as opposed to Third and 10 I think right now they are just they want to have as short a field as possible they're thinking look we're going to get off the field regardless we want as much yardage as possible see if we can get another score here before the half and look at BC's defense no deep safeties that's right they're feeling confident right [Applause] now a lot of players showing pressure they'll Rush only four OU angal tries to escape the pocket floats one out to Midfield terrific play by oui angal to jakai Douglas across his body that time he kept his eyes down field he's absolutely that was just a simulated pressure again show five six up at the line of scrimmage drop them out Rush with four covered with seven and you just see there jakai Douglas he finds the Zone void nice throw by DJ OU [Music] young 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 19 more that's a guy that they need to get going you see him there he's working against Amari Jackson Boston College's best corner just runs a little comeback on the outside drives him off nice throwing and catcha state gets another snap off before the two-minute timeout Flags down back shoulder incomplete with two1 to go in the half as Morlock couldn't reach back for that one the clock does tick down to two minutes to go in the half legal formation offense number 52 lined up in the back field 5yd penalty repeat first down so that should take us based on the clock as it reads to the two-minute time time and it does so it will be first and 15 when we come back for Florida State two minutes to go in the first half here inella [Applause] has we'll take some of those Maddie trick play the reverse Fleet flicker IOU angal misses Kyle Morlock down the sideline and Boston College didn't really buy the fake as KP price was pretty tight on the tight end in coverage so off of the two-minute timeout they dial up the trick play yeah you see Kyle Morlock he just blocks blocks and then you just see him released down the sideline overthrew him a little again Kyle Morlock is someone they want to get the ball to they think they have a guy here who presents some mismatch problems for the coverage Defenders of Boston College that time it was KP price who was [Applause] [Music] trailing incomplete thrown behind jakai Douglas now it's third down and 15 for Florida state with a minute 50 to go before halftime this is a huge sequence upcoming because Florida state starts the third quarter with the football so they could score before halftime this whole game could flip or could BC get a stop and get another score before halftime absolutely look DJ knew where he was going with the football there another simulated pressure he had the right guy jakai Douglas just another Miss would you Blitz if you're BC here I would he him up a little bit I would bring more than more than four they bring four angal short of the first down line to gain but not by much jakai Douglas reach the ball out he's about a half yard shy so you have to think Florida State goes for again it's that zone blitzing background that Pittsburgh Steeler background of defensive coordinator Tim Lewis you're seeing it on display Florida State that's the first charge timeout of the half 30 second timeout what a big play is coming up here as FSU will call timeout with a minute 34 on the clock they will undoubtedly you would think go for it on fourth down to try to keep this drive alive and again they start the third quarter with the ball yeah this this is this is huge you have to get some points out of this obviously you would like to get six out of it it'll be interesting cat and mouse here as far as if they're able to convert here what does defensive coordinator Tim Lewis then try to do cuz right now his Zone Blitz schemes are not they're not getting home the pressure is kind of calmed down DJ's kind of settled in a little bit and he's seeing the field better isn't always accurate but he's seeing the field better do you try and get some hits on him by sending some more and telling your second secondary guys to lock down lock down in manto man not Zone Blitz but man-to-man coverage which they were doing well earlier on in the game and they run the chains out just to make it official and it is less than one on fourth down that they have remaining this is fourth at about a foot that Florida state has to go so with a minute 34 on the clock both teams now with two timeouts remaining a huge play [Music] here Florida state was not charged a timeout now they'll give FSU so FSU gets their timeout back since the officials will stop at the clock anyway to bring the chains out for a measurement big big call here do you ask this offensive line to go ahead and just establish the line of scrimmage and pick up this first well you have a 250lb quarterback as well is this anything more than just quarterback going right up the middle yeah if he's not under Center he better not be carrying the ball and there he goes he gets the push and an easy fourth down conversion for U angal and that will stop the clock for the moment and again it Pres deserves all three Florida State timeouts and inside in two minutes even in a loss last week Florida state had a heck of a fourth quarter touchdown drive to get that game against Georgia Tech chot tied well they showed a lot of mental toughness and they needed here now time Florida State that's their first charge timeout of the half 32nd timeout so now they'll get organized with their first timeout before first down yeah I mean you've got you've got the benefit of time on your side a minute 10 on the clock you had all three timeouts the clock so now you can really kind of talk through your strategy now the real cat and mouse game starts who are the guys down here that you're going to try and get the ball to they've been trying to get the ball to tight end Kyle Morlock number 84 they had Jaylen Lucas they had him open he's a guy who's dynamic in space so maybe he's a guy Lawrence toy has been open they just haven't been able bble to hit him so they have a number of different people that they can go to I would bet on Toof or Lucas alert for a trick play down here the closer we get to the goal line and if you're Tim Lewis the defensive coordinator now you got to get more aggressive now you can't sit back and and simulate pressure you got to bring some pressure but a point you made about FSU that I thought was interesting this week is you think they might be spreading around to too many weapons that maybe they need to really identify of the top of the pyramid and get it to those guys absolutely and I think you know as the season goes on that'll that'll declare itself we leg and that is a long throw for not much yardage to Malik Bon that will get the clock rolling they'll hold on to their timeouts gets it down to about the 17 yd line for a gain of four Bob there came the pressure the boundry Corner Fire they brought five and played manto man in the back end Rush four here sidearms one slipping out of the back field H down inside the 10 yd line is royell Williams he's got a first down and stops the clock he picks up 11 and Crouch made the stop now it's first and goal and the whole Playbook at their disposal because they still have a [Music] timeout 10th play of the drive for ref [Applause] [Music] [Applause] FSU [Music] wangal floater in the back of the end zone wobbler comes up short he was looking for jakai Douglas but it must have been tipped at the line that came out like a wounded duck jakai Douglas is wide open in the back of the end zone you can just see there was a miscommunication Carter Davis cam Arnold and you see jakai Douglas is sitting there at the back of the end zone you can see the miscommunication there you see everyone playing on the goal line and they just turned jakai Douglas loose in the back of the end zone and George DOD one there George Rooks got a hand on the ball second down and goal looks in that same direction another wideopen receiver and he misses Darion Williamson oh fui angal just puts a little bit of touch on that throw it is an easy Florida State touchdown instead it's third down and goal this is what you're going to get you're going to get here and here and now watch these two Defenders they both jumped the short route they don't talk it through and look what happens they turn the slot receiver loose they both cover the smash route but DJ just misses him the exact thing that happened to their defense down in the Red Zone they can't take advantage of it same [Applause] formation another fourman Rush OU angal back in the end zone for Morlock that's incomplete will they have to settle for another field goal it's Fourth and goal from the six we watched them over and over trying to get the ball to Kyle Morlock down in the Red Zone during practice and you're going to see him here he's matched up against Amari Jackson he's got size and length on him he's got position he just can't DJ just can't put the ball on a spot that gives him a [Music] chance he just didn't give him enough of a shot to make a one-on-one play so Ryan Fitzgerald from short range 24 yds away that's the second time though that Florida state has gotten down to the 6yd line and on both of those possessions they have had to settle for only three a one possession game 25 seconds to go before halftime and what a lineup we have coming for you this weekend and Monday the US Open Women's final is Saturday afternoon on ESPN our ABC Saturday college football triple header capped off with Tennessee NC State the US Open men's final is Sunday afternoon and our Monday Night Football week one matchup has the Jets in San Francisco to meet the 49ers injury update by the way from Chris button down on the Seline DJ Lundy has made his way back to the FSU locker room so without Omar Graham they were already a little thin at linebacker and that's one of those Green Dot middle linebackers that they're now going to potent be without keep our eyes on Lundy and see if he comes back out to start the second half but he just made his way back to the locker room you know it's on C Nicholson you're up so DJ OU angal again got Florida State down inside the 10 yd line but again they have to settle for three yeah they have some open receivers you see the miscommunications on the part of Boston College's secondary there the tip pass good play by the defens of line of Boston College but these are throws that have to result in six they have to be touchdowns Morlock one-on-one against a corner that he has a lot more length and reach on doesn't put it in a spot where he can make a play on the ball high in the back of the end zone it's just those missed opportunities had some good throws still just not quite in sync so Boston College you would think would be content to take an eight-point lead of the locker room room at halftime as they'll run it straight ahead with tra Ward and that should end the first half tribe certainly an opportunity for that for Florida State as they begin the third quarter with the football Boston College they've got the touchdown lead and it'll be coming out to the 20 yd line at the 25 yd line for the NS Babble shoing here with Lewis rck Chris button is with us as well boy the way that that first half went with Boston College dominating field position time of possession how important is this first drive of the third quarter for the NS it's huge because as you mentioned when we were talking about it with the way Boston College is dominating time and possession every possession matters and that in particular really comes into play when they get in the red area right they're 0 for two in the red area right now that's an NFL Style game where now every possession matters if you don't have as many cracks at it you've got to be efficient this has to be an efficient [Applause] Drive Wanga 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 let's go down to Chris spoke of Bill O'Brien coming out of the locker room when they get the ball back on offense they like to go what what worked for them in the first quarter running the football controlling the tempo sustaining drives he said defensively I like how we have mixed up coverages 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 eight barius Washington the left tackle gave him an extra shove they're already already out across their own 42 yd line and they go right back to Davis this time not nearly as much room he lost a yard that time you see the Boston College defensive line really Step Up Neto oala really set the edge right there got his hands inside on the offensive tackle against Robert Scott and now they've got him in the second and long situation which puts the advantage with the Boston College defense and will they Blitz more often here in the second [Music] half might find out on this play they're at least bluffing will Rush only four weang left protected incomplete so now it's third down and a long 11 close to 12 Shion Hala was tracking royell Williams and that's a nice stop nice job by Shion Alla of just playing with leverage stay staying calm and then just driving underneath you see him hook him a little bit with that back arm that's an old defensive back trick and able to get his hand in front and get come up with the pbu here's the money down here's where it's at does DJ have an [Applause] answer now BC does bring the blitz there's a completion to AI wrapped up though and immediately brought down about 5 yd shy of the first down that's a gain of seven that's going to set up fourth down and will Florida State leave their offense on the field on their side of the 50 fourth down at five we said this was a big opening tribe to begin the third quarter Hey Now who do you go to wow and a onep possession game going for it on fourth down got one-on-one coverage down here at the bottom of the screen and they will snap it out of hardap a sidearm lob and it's intercepted Max Tucker down the sideline inside the 10 yd line first and goal Boston College a 57 yd interception return for Max Tucker 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 the marari 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 just sitting there waiting tips it over throws defensive backs no Aaron throws you just got to catch it and now you turn into a running back good coverage across the board by the Boston College secondary they locked them down in man-to-man coverage that is a huge swing and momentum goal to go for BC roash to the 5yd line an extra push inside the five down to about the four it'll be second down and goal and boy back to the pass rush as well Lewis on fourth down ezar Raku again got the pressure on uang it's all front and coverage it goes together on the defensive side if you can lock it down in the back end and make the quarterback just hold the ball a beat give the defensive line another second to work that's how that's usually what happens right how about in a one possession game though the decision to go for it on fourth down 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 from the with the touchdown and the Eagles extend their [Applause] lead never again never again [Applause] again the play calling running back out here in the flat you're getting a little natural pick route they're just kind of right now taking advantage of the Boston of the Florida State linebackers playing with poor eyes getting out leveraged not communicating all of these different switch releases this is a pro style offense what they have done is identified a weakness and now they're exploiting it over and over and over again this game yeah look right now they they just are not happy with the efficiency of the offense and for good reason but I tell you a lot of it has to do with the efficiency of this Boston College defense yep that's Le rck on bab shoen pris button with us as well as we take a look at tonight's game Flow brought to you by Progressive just watch how this happens watch these guys right here man-to-man coverage watch right here you have a free dropper who just kind of hangs in the middle and then watch the pass rush of ezar Raku he just beats the tackle one-on-one and it's just front and coverage all goes together you make the quarterback Pat the ball let give me time to work my moves lock them down in the back end free dropper give out help that's perfect team defense right there you can't draw it up any better than that Philly in the game to the left ofal he will take the hand off and bounce it has to turn the corner and gets rid out at the 30 yd line and and last week there were multiple times where Florida state was in a had to have it fourth down and they converted against Georgia Tech in Dublin certainly understand off of that maybe why Mike norell might have had some faith on fourth down to go for it there but to go for it on fourth down on the opening possession of the third quarter it felt like a little too much desperation with a lot of time on the clock in a one possession game all St number 53 offense 5y pen still second down and now morce Smith the center wipes away the 5 yd gain on first down yeah Bob it WS of a coach who senses that right now in this moment of truth I need to get my guys give them an extra jolt I need to really raise their confidence demonstrated out of their ability to pick up that fourth down but now it could go just the other way so this is this is important now now how do they respond here do they continue to fight can they put together some drives Jet Sweep jaat Douglas lasso down across the 30 at the 31 yd line he's got six D Crouch Amari Jackson were there to sandwich him four yd shy of the first down so the nlls faced with third and four Boston colleges man pressures and the ability of their secondary right now to make plays in one-on-one situations has been nothing short of spectacular so far in this game TI ball nearly intercepted on the caram intended for Morlock and that makes Florida stay one for nine on third down I mean you just see warlock's just running a y stick which is basically an out route it goes through his hands he just isn't able to get his hands oriented and make this catch you got to make that catch that's got to be a catch they have been dialing up routes for Kyle Morlock all game long we saw him work him in practice Ice Mike norell said look we have to make a concerted effort to get him the football but you got to make the [Applause] plays Jaden Macwan lets it bounce and it takes a sideways hop out of bounds inside the 5 yd line young children Matthews child on the way and all of their family and friends from everyone at ESPN trewn Ward out to the 25y line but I mean Lewis that was as heartbreaking a story as you could possibly imagine and it really hit home with the Boston College Community specifically it it absolutely does look that it this takes your breath away when you read some of the details that were put out there for the public to consume about how this took place I mean I I was just literally speechless just speechless and to think about you know all all the circumstances surrounding it with his with their families it it's just it's crushing it's absolutely crushing so hopefully the entire good family and their circle of friends and it is a very wide circle of friends because those two young men were as nice as they come feels everyone's Collective arms wrapped around them because we're all sending every good thought and prayer your way absolutely Tre Shawn Ward was able to head off the field and seemed okay so BC out to their own 25 yd line look like a hamstring cramp I mean it is humid didn't warm in this Stadium tonight conditioning hydration all going to play a big part of this if we head through this third qu and now up the middle goes the Freshman turbo Richard and he lives up to his name and picks up 15 more yards ventr trell Cypress made the stop but B O'Brien told us I think this kid is our future not sure how much he was going to play tonight because he had been banged up a bit during camp but turbo Richard makes an early impression you see the acceleration right there that weak side counter with the two pullers coming back weak side Turbo's got some juice you can see why coach O'Brien was excited about it and it's Richard and this time not nearly as much bottled up near the line of scrimmage got a [Music] couple think if you're if you're Florida State's defense you've just got to stay in it you just got to keep your your head down as far as do your assignment play Team defense don't try to do anything extra just play Team defense don't look at the scoreboard and get off the field on third down and let your offense continue to try and find its way you've just got and it's the hardest thing in the world to do in a situation like [Applause] this four more yards DJ Lundy who was able to make his way back into the game here in the second half able to bring down the true [Music] freshman looks like turbo Richard will head out Kyle robell will come back in for a third down just like it's been all game long this is the down that they just have to be better with that they just have to get off the field mikae Morel made it a point telling on Chris Chris Buton that this was the down distance that they had to be better at offensively and defensively and here's one of those moments this is one of those moments where you got to find something out about yourself down 21 to six here 8 minutes to go in the third quarter castalanos tries to find an escape patch gets to the sideline and comes up short about two yds shy of the first down DJ Lundy and Joshua farmer combined to drive them out so Boston College will punt mway through the third quarter PJ Lundy has really shown his competitive character in this drive number 10 is flying all over the place he is coming downhill trying to stop the run you saw there the extra effort to chase castalanos who just been a nightmare for him all night long that's what you want to see if you're Mike norell if you're Adam fer the defensive coordinator who's going to continue to fight who's going to show up S kandadi with some Hang Time and the ball with a flag down inside the 5 yd line bounces into the end zone that might be kick catch interference I'm interair number 13 kicking Team 15 yd penalty from the spot of the foul first down that's the first Boston College penalty and it's a 15yd penalty for kick catch interference that will change field position for Florida State [Music] Tallahasse and it has been some kind of impressive Road 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 another tackle for KP price see now that just that just gives you a little bit of Rhythm second and six you can deal with that you can deal with that as a play caller now the passing game who can you get it to you got man-to-man coverage free safety in the middle of the field can you win one-on-one on the outside if you're going to throw the football it looks like FSU is going to give the yards right back again B St number 53 offense 5yd penalty still second down and Lewis that just erases exactly what you said the four yards a little bit of rhythm that middle ground play calling down and distance second down and six well now you're behind the chains yeah and now you're back into what you might think would be an obvious passing situation now you're to a situation where the defensive coordinator for Boston College is going okay let me flip over my card now I get to call these the fun defenses and here they come they're in Pursuit rangal leg dropped Again by Morlock he is normally very short-handed and that's backto back possessions where he has dropped balls that he's got to come up with to spark his offense Bob we saw them working him in practice they want to get the ball to him he's just like like now it's in his head now he's thinking too much now everything is just becoming a struggle and you see right there he doesn't look it all the way in you see how the hands go to the head like it's already something that's starting to work on him mentally and now you can see BC trying to play with the eyes of OU angal as well look at all the players up near the line of scrimmage how many are blitzing are they blitzing where are they coming from and Mike norell is going to call a timeout maybe he's just confused as well time out Florida State first charge time out of the half play clock winding down they want to avoid delay of game [Music] the 55th season of Monday Night Football kicks off September 9th the Jets and 49ers 8 Eastern on ESPN ABC ESPN to pz and ESPN plus Peyton and Eli are back on ESPN 2 as well and Aaron Rodgers is back for the Jets and if Aaron roders can stay healthy for the Jets this year speak Comfort to me leis rck you sound like Mike Greenberg thank you yes greeny and iron but we are up one mind where this is concerned just always looking for Hope do we have hope look we we we all know what Aaron Rogers is as a player when he's on the field he changes the calculus for everything and yeah yeah it would change the ball game in the AFC East and in the NFL overall no question about it I knew we'd get along third and 11 after the timeout a roll out pressure coming we young on time Jaylen Brown first down that's a big throw 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 Brown runs a fantastic comeback route sticks his foot in the ground get out of the break and you see now Bob you see that humidity the heat Amari Jackson over there on the sideline looks like those cramps are start like he it looked like he started to cramp up in the middle of that play and you see how he's walking now like this is going to start playing a role in this football game Florida State players used to practicing in this weather probably have a great game plan for dealing with this level of humidity at BC does does not have the deepest of secondaries right so if you lose a starting Corner even to cramps for a few reps that could be crucial and that could help the Florida state offense in a big way so they're going to want to hydrate Amari Jackson and get him back in the game now Florida State of course left out of the college football playoff last year so they would have been the chief beneficiary of a 12 team playoff had it occurred last year and now their season is on life support right now now we showed you earlier we had an AR college football playoff metric to begin the year them at 36% likelihood to make the playoff it dropped to 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 porer he's got it the throwback to OU angal from Cam Davis and portier got loose 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 and they dial it up and they go hey look we're going to test him right out of the gate Ami Mari Jackson one of their best cover Corners their best cover Corner that's a smart play call by Mike Morell orer again fights his way through contact all the way to the end zone touchdown [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] now Florida state is going to go for two potentially right here no it looks like they are going now to line up and kick the point after and make this a one possession [Applause] game and all of a sudden Kon porer backto back 29 yd receptions breaths a lot of life back into this football game him and the crowd back in it as well you 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 63 202 lbs 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 oulay opposite hash putting the ball right on the money he's got a cannon to do it he's just got to do it consistently that's exactly what they needed at this point in time that changes their whole mindset big explosive plays that's what that was right on time now last week when the Florida state offense got some big momentum changing scores they didn't get the response from their defense that they needed now on their home field will they we're about to find [Music] out this Saturday on ABC and ESPN Plus at 3:30 Eastern South Carolina squares off against Kentucky and then at 7:30 it's number 15 Tennessee and number 24 NC State it's an ABC ESPN plus Saturday college football double header when week two kicks [Applause] off after the play personal foul unnecessary numbers number 54 kicking team 15yd penalty from the 25 yd line first and 10 and Byron Turner commits an unnecessary roughness penalty after the play is over that gives Boston College terrific field position after the Florida state touchdown just that those are the kind of things look every possession counts field position counts you've got to be smart in this moment in time you can see Mike Mell he is not happy [Music] [Applause] [Music] so a mental mistake and now BC has it at their own 40 yd line and they'll go Jet Sweep Macwan no check that a counter play as castalanos with a good fake and he's got a first down a gain of 15 you're going to see him right here just unnecessarily shove the Frontline Blocker in the back of Boston College I mean it's just not even necessary I mean just run past it it doesn't accomplish a thing besides now given a very dangerous offense very good field position and in one play they're on your side of the 50 castalanos again right up the middle he's got another first down so back-to- back runs by Thomas castalanos for 25 total yards after the penalty and just like that BC is at the 35 yd line of FSU that's his designed quarterback run just take it up to the middle Thomas who find some space as the second level Defenders Retreat just use your athletic ability this offensive line has done a fantastic job of blocking all night long go to your big Playmakers in crunch time castalanos is that for Boston College tipped ball almost intercepted it was deflected and quindarius Jones almost picked it off that's big Patrick pton you see him he gets those long arms up out on the edge you're going to see he does a nice job he looks look I'm going to fight outside I'm make sure you don't break contain on this one there's the difference just got to come up with those maybe it wasn't paid it might have been Cam Riley who got his hands on [Applause] 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 tackles is Ward all the way inside the 15 down to the 11 yd line 23 yds another chunk play on the ground for BC it looked like aaria Thomas missed a tackle oh that is just gutting it's gutting you got got to get him on the ground AAR 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 and then you see shahim brown he misses him well as well those are things you just can't have just can't have it in that kind of moment and if you're Boston College you'll take it roasa inside the 10yd line down to about the seven just CER and the tackle what are they doing right now they're going back to who they are the interior three this offensive line has been doing work all night Drew Kendall Jack Conley Dwayne Alec Jude bowry these guys have been doing work on the ground just like they did last year at home up there in VC and they're taking it right to this Ved FL State front the show again about a yard shy of the first down that'll put Boston College up to 188 yd rushing and we still have over 2 minutes to go in the third quarter KY roash show is just he's basically a cheeseburger away from 220 lbs built low to the ground he is a low and when they come in then with tan Ward you saw with turbo Richard can do that is just that's just a nightmare for a defense third down and two inside the 5yd line roash show again submarines does he have it it depends on the spot [Music] the I'll tell you that is a heck of a job by Daniel Lions the defensive tackle against the the double team he doesn't get moved at all holds the point of attack he gives him a chance there there guys who were still fighting out there obviously for Florida State's defense but this offensive line has just had their way with it and without measurement it's a BC first down first and goal there you see big Daryl Jackson Jr 65330 lbs Joshua farmer 63 318 Rob show up the Middle with a flag down he's in the end zone for a touchdown legal substitution defense more than 11 players on the field at PTY decline results of the play touchdown Florida state had 12 on the field and it still didn't matter how about the response by BC and boy you mentioned Boston College so far tonight being who they are unfortunately for Florida State this this season this has been who their defense has been exactly as well they have not been able to get stops even when their offense has changed the momentum in these first couple of games this offense is I mean this offensive line is just absolutely mauling 192 rushing yards 5.2 per Rush at this point in the game it has just been one of it's it's it's the worst possible scenario that you can have as a defense you know what they have said their game plan is going to be and you can't stop it you simply can't stop it I you see it there Drew Kendall Jack Conley ozie 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 with and if you're Bill O'Brien you're going yep that's exactly what I thought and if you're Mike norell you just don't have any answers this was supposed to be the strength of their team this defensive line this defense of the line supposed to have multiple high draft picks on it multiple Daryl Jackson Josh farmer Patrick Peyton these guys when they get off the bus they look like NFL players but tonight they have no answer 192 rushing yards for Boston College and we're not even to the fourth quarter yet after Georgia Tech had 190 rushing yards last week in the win in [Music] Dublin it's really the same theme from last week and you watch that film from last week and you said from a physicality standpoint there's no reason to think that that might not carryover to this week it absolutely has like you you you just sense look when you turn on the tape you combine that with who Bill O'Brien is you combine that with how the players talked about they went through training camp the kind of training camp he said he put them through this is who they are this is who they want to be but on top of it they've got a dynamic quarterback who opens up the offense and it makes them too dimensional that's a pretty darn good recipe zah holms enough do [Applause] it inside of a minute to go in the [Music] third when you think about this now Fon ward has 134 combined yards and a touchdown Ro show 50 yards two touchdowns you've gotten a little bit of a glimpse of Turbo Richard Boston College that's their first charge time out of the second half 30 second timeout so BC will spend a timeout here so Mike norell is looking for answers but you've got Bill O'Brien now as you said setting a culture yep and talking you know him you know this coaching staff very well you know why do you think cuz we talked about it again with him this week why do you think this was the perfect job the right program for him at this time look I think one he brings credibility okay so now players are willing to buy into exactly what he's selling which is no matter how hard I push you they'll respond because he they believe when he goes to the administration and says hey look I need to improve the weight room I need to improve the nutritional program I need to have more assets available for my players to be the best that they can possibly be people go well you know what considering what your what your uh pedigree is we believe you will best 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 that it really needs and he truly believes like he told us I can win at Boston College it's been done before but you I need a couple things to really go my way he said look I got to get a really good quarterback he's got one he said I got to recruit the region I got to dominate the region up there in New England as far as getting the very best players and I got to expand the football operation and make it exact 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 put it you see it on the field and be thank you and they're looking for answers as we start the fourth quarter royell Williams bounces around brought down by ezar Raku near the line of scrimmage maybe Falls forward for about two and a half so it sets up third down in a couple Bab wasen alongside Lewis rck that was Chris button down on the fields a chance to talk to Mike norell and his team faces third down and two to begin the fourth quarter and they are down by a couple of [Applause] [Music] [Applause] scores big third down maybe get the ball again to portier he at the top of the screen one onone coverage DC Blitz coming weang double clutch and that's great there they go oh Lewis you saw that matchup they take advantage again the 6'3 size of portier for the first down yeah he's just going against ra Brown who's in now forar Jackson who I haven't seen come back in the game since he went out with those cramps with that hamstring and they've gone after Bri a couple different times now which is a smart smart move on the part of Coach Mike norell and portier is feeling it right now you got to ride the hot hand and we've got another cramping player for BC it looks like that's k Johnson that's the nickel Corner this is becoming a little bit of an issue now their depth is going to start getting tested so Chris this is starting to be a little bit of an epidemic for the Boston College secondary yeah and they've been trying to get ahead of it I've been watching them down on the sidelines the training staff trying to give them electrolytes they give them these shots that say muscle cramps trying you know when I was talking with Bill O'Brien before the game I said it's pretty hot one out here today he's like yeah but we've had a hot summer in Boston it ain't like this I know you are absolutely right Chris I was down there pregame I was like man back pedaling anget and he just has to dirt the ball again it's aaru blowing that play up in the offensive backfield they're trying to set a screen up but DJ just couldn't unload the football with aaru all over him and now a flag drops out grounding ezar Raku is just right now giving Darius Washington left tackle for Florida State Fitz you see he's been using the same move stabs him outside arm over inside so they are not going to give the benefit of the doubt of a receiver in the area or a deflected ball there to OU angal they're going to call that intentional grounding as he was still inside The Tackle Box ball didn't get back to the line of scrimmage either so as a result that's a 13 yd loss and an incompletion on second down and a mile so now it's going to be third down and 23 yeah it's just it's just deflating you know portier makes a big play against Bri kees Brown you feel the momentum like starting to really kind of come back into him they they they gain some hope and then auraku just has a great pass rush have intentional grounding and now like the like the timing's thrown off again because now it's just like you're looking at this third and forever and you're just like man we can't this up like I'm telling you that's just part of the mentality that's what happens when those kind of things start happening you 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 ra keis Brown makes the stop you see there they just play what they call a drop eight coverage Rush with three drop eight it's fourth and 16 you're inside the 40 yd line too far to try a field goal and I'm not sure what a field goal does for you anyway I mean do you try and punt from here and pin BC deep does that do anything for you I I guess you have to go for it I I absolutely look you you've got to Hope someone is able to break a tackle you look they might have a coverage bust down here they're turning loose the slot oneon-one down here at the bottom of the screen there's a blitz 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 and BC will take over on Downs to PA shoen Lewis rck Chris button well Boston College has the football back they've got field position they have run for close to 200 yds and they are a field goal away from making this a three-core game cran Ward who spent his first three seasons here in Tallahassee playing for the nles before he spent a year at Kansas State now comes back in his final year of Eligibility as a member of Boston College he's got a touchdown tonight and he has been part of an offensive attack Lewis that is again just kind of like Georgia Tech did last week own the line of scrimmage against a very highly touted Florida State defensive front just leaning on this offensive line just making it about the trenches and the running backs just benefited castalanos tries to create incomplete now it's third down and nine that one went through the hands of Ls Bond who was his most reliable receiver last season he's been quiet tonight they haven't needed him because they've run the ball so effectively Lewis B will play a big role for this offense trusted receiver trusted friend of Thomas castalanos they have really expanded their ability on the perimeter Bob as far as bring bringing in some guys like Shake mcgaan Jaden mcgaan in terms of their explosiveness this is a well-rounded offense now with has a much more Dynamic component to it feels like the game right here for Florida State a must stop on Third and [Applause] N castalanos keeps the Play [Applause] Alive well short of the first down so FSU does indeed get the stop they'll even rule that to Jaden mcgaan incomplete had he even caught it it would have only been for a gain of two or three yards so that's exactly what the FSU defense needed to do not much time off the clock and a three and out I know it would have been almost impossible for him to see him but he had Lewis Bond coming across the field 15 yards behind Florida State secondary but he was trying to was trying to buy some more time and couldn't locate him that's been the difference the playmaking ability of Castellanos 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 at about the 12 so Boston College flips the field after a 43 yd [Music] punt woo and now here Boston College you want to talk about a road win this would be 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 all the way back close to the 5 yd line that time atow wakala looks like he'll get credit for the sack at the six BC's third you see AA coming on the right side of your screen getting those hips turned flattening down the line of scrimmage not allowing offensive tackle jayen early to push him up field classic pass rush wangal steps up across the goal line he goes down again this time at the line of scrimmage George Rooks spins him down you see now the defensive line knows what kind of game it is nakala again watch him off the top of your screen you see now he just does the high side speed rush dips that inside shoulder defensive tackles George Rooks is there to clean [Applause] up third and [Applause] 17 fourman Rush the quick out to aing it'll be fourth down as he's at least 10 yards shy of the first down Frank ke Brown came up and made the immediate tackle at the 11 yd line and Florida State on Fourth and 12 will have to punt you see some of the depth on the Boston College defense stepping up on that drive oala quintavius Hutchins the pass rushers giving the Frontline guys a little bit of a break you see the fresh legs you see how different it looks [Applause] Jaden mcowan bear catch at the 41 yd line so again Boston College with very good field position as we check out tonight's Capital One rewarding performance and Lewis again it's been at the line of scrimmage for BC yeah they've just dominated inside out an inside out rushing attack that's a bill bellich philosophy Bill O'Brien coach under Bill bich they want to own the line of scrimmage they want to attack you inside out they want to defend inside out because once you start hitting at the heart of a defense like this it has a tangible tangible effect on their competitiveness cuz they feel there's no other place to go when when a team's under able to run the football right down your throat it's the game within the game and Bill O'Brien knows how to play it as well as anyone and this team is carrying it out to a te turbo Richard starts this drive [Applause] a gain of seven EJ Lundy makes the stop Bill O'Brien told us you have to set a tone there has to be sustainability there has to be an identity and Boston College hasn't been a team to win eight games in a regular season for 15 years when he said that I had to go back and check the 15 years is a long time for this program to not be a team to win eight or more games at a regular season and he was right it's been 15 years since they have won eight games castalanos brought down near the line of scrimmage it'll be Third Down Chris you know Bob there's a pride that comes with representing the city of Boston and Bill O'Brien knows that well you're competing with all the professional teams in terms of building the brand that is Boston College but he grew up right outside the city and he told us he was just so happy to have his dad there at the opening press conference his dad has since passed away but knew that that would make him proud it's someone who grew up 30 minutes from Boston College this city runs deep in his blood now 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 but I mean it it really was Lewis a job that checked every box for him from a person standpoint and also the opportunity he thought he would have with this program to again build a winner yeah absolutely and he look he was he was on his way to Ohio State so he got a late start on this on this job wasn't able to get any transfers to come in because of the time that he was hired but there were but players were allowed to transfer out and guess how many left none everyone was thirsty and hungry for the knowledge and the cache he was bringing and the best players which is always the key were the ones who led the charge and set the tone for everyone else and this is how this is how it results on the football field with this kind of performance that punt for Kad rolls into the end zone for a Touchback Midway through the fourth quarter Florida State needs a touchdown to make it a one-score game the back fields with DJ angal as they begin this drive at their own 20 yd line DJ 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 he's definitely found a little bit of a rhythm throwing the football to his right potier has been someone who has shown up 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 line he hits jakai Douglas another first down eight of 16 since Amari Jackson went out of the game he has not been back in the corners have been being manned Now by bre kees Brown and Max Tucker can't afford to lose too many more people on the edges for Boston College's defense Wang nowhere go with the football so he throws it away over the head of jaki Douglas the pass rush started to get home it'll be second down in speaking of Amari Jackson here he comes back up on on the field top of the screen see Mike norell there right now just trying to find something that they can hang their hat on as being a foundational part of their offense for 2024 what are the things that we know we can go to who can we go to what are those plays there's a long season left sliding attempt by Darion Williamson but he couldn't come up with it so now it will be third down and 10 how many times have we seen that too tonight though Bob we've seen wide receivers we've seen Kyle Morlock the tight end just can't get his hands situated ball go right through his hands it's just been if it hasn't been the quarterback it's been the receivers if it's not the receivers it's the quarterback just no consistency no [Applause] [Music] rhythm BC brings four L angal underneath for a gain of four wrapped up as du span that's his first catch Maybe 5 yd [Music] gain and there's a flag throw oh that could be a costly penalty TJ Ferguson the Right Guard gave a big shove to aala threw him down it was going to be fourth down at five unnecessary roughness number 67 offense 15yd penalty the down counts fourth down and TJ Ferguson out of the game after that penalty by Mike norbel transfer from Alabama it's a killer it it sure is look this is just this is just Peak frustration this peak frustration you can see him right here just comes into the play late it's just it's like it's so hard to put in the words just how frustrating that is I mean it's there's no question Florida state would have gone for it on fourth down and five now they're going to punt after that penalty I still think Lewis counting how much time you got on the clock and you need two scores they probably should still go for it here this is almost like waving the White Flag I agree I mean it it's just I understand what you're saying here I mean it's just if you it's just been one thing after another with this football team and you're right I I think there comes a point where I know in in college football here like you're you're it's not over until it's really just over right I mean so you want to keep playing you want to keep fighting because look with the expanded playoffs you always feel as though you have a chance here but I I think sometimes the reality sets in that especially when you see your team making those kind of mistakes and those kind of judgments like subconsciously you may never admit it but sometimes it's just like you know what this just isn't it this just isn't our night you know so look let me just punt this thing down here 6:04 on the clock 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 but and look fourth and 20 what are your percentages to convert that that might be a 5% play who knows but with 6 minutes to go eating two touchdowns and a two-point conversion at some point just to force overtime I don't know how you give the ball back to BC there and think you're going to get it back twice in the last 5 and 1/2 minutes maybe you're going to think you're going to rip the ball out here and create a turnover 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 FL and there goes castalanos spinning into the secondary with a first half 18 yds for Thomas [Applause] castalanos and that puts BC well over 200 yds rushing in the game at 216 total you just see you you see right there on that play you see the bind that this young man's athletic ability puts defenders in they don't know if he's going to pull it down or if he's just going to try and throw that ball out in the flat on kind of like an RPO type of action and they just they're just never sure and that's two weeks in a row with hannes King last week and now with castalanos this week if this score holds a BC beat Notre Dame when they were ranked eightth back in 1994 by 19 if this score holds this would be their second largest win against a top 10 team in the pole era and the pole era be again 1936 look it's a it's a new day in college football we said that this was going to be one of the biggest seasons one of the most news filled seasons in college football ever for a number of different reasons and here you're having it Boston College a team nobody was who was talking about Boston College before the season started yeah Bill O'Brien yeah we get it coach Tom Brady Deshawn Watson Bryce young had a good had a had some good teams at Penn State nobody was like talking about this football team as being able to win this game Georgia Tech another team no one would no one was talking about in the ACC everything is up for grabs now I mean you love to see this you don't love to see it if you're Florida State but you love seeing some of these old traditional programs these are programs I played against four years when I was at the University of Pittsburgh we were 4 and0 by the way I remember 4 and0 yeah just we're the same age not to rub it in yeah no I remember but I mean it it's good for college football to see some of these teams kind of rise up and inject some new story lines into the college football scene this is a good football team you're watching here tonight in Boston College this is no [Applause] fluke picks up a couple and the conversation tomorrow as Florida State spends their last time out is going to be very much like a glass half full glass half empty thing glass half full how good is Boston college and you're right maybe this isn't a fluke but a lot of the conversation is going to be about Batman's team well there's no that's all the conversation there's no doubt especially considering last year but yeah I mean here it is I mean look at this du Kane at Missouri I mean that that's that's a tough assignment at Michigan State it's always tough to play up there on the road to Western Kentucky I'm back home against Virginia Virginia Tech is a team that people think can end up having a good season Louisville ser juice SMU these are always programs that can rise up at any moment so none of these are gimmies and obviously the last two are not gimmies either but hey Boston College has a shot against every single one of those every single one they don't have to take a backseat to anybody and with this coach you know he's not going to allow him to so if you're a Boston College fan you're kind of sitting up tonight going what do we have here well FSU has to get a stop here because now they're out of timeouts so they have sold out to try and stop BC on this set of downs and they have forced third down and a long seven and now Bill O'Brien is going to call a timeout that's their second charge timeout of the half 30 second timeout where does FSU Go From Here W if they can't pull off a a miracle in the last 4 minutes and 23 seconds we're talking about them potentially needing to run the table from here to make a 12 team playoff and they would obviously have to run the table after this to even have life but you look at a couple of the road games they have left Miami and Notre Dame after the way those two teams looked this past weekend those Loom very large again there's a lot of games on here that aren't gimmies either I mean I know everyone wants to throw dirt on Clemson right now they're not it's not done for them we don't know how Florida's going to look in late November I mean this this is a season that if they don't get their head right here in Tallahassee this coulds wind up being an ugly season cuz these are two win two losses right now that will shake the core in the foundation of your locker room like hey man are we like what is happening here castalanos on a counter keeper slides with a first [Applause] down first think about the leadership that they lost here 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 remember you had Jared bur Bren Fisk on this team Jordan Travis on this team Trey Benson you had some guys who kind of kept it all together guys who were Rock Solid but when we came down here to Tallahassee hey Braden Fisk and Jared vers I mean these guys were pillars even though they were both transfers I mean who is that guy guy now who's going to hold it together here now that's what we're going to find [Applause] out robelle four more down to the 39 yd [Music] line before that Boston cols had even played a game B these players had already bought in they had already they were already Believers just because of the resume of this coaching staff that was coaching them at Boston College so they had to believe they had to take a leap of faith that everything that they were telling them was going to pan out when they came down here to tell ass now that they're seeing this 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 man this could be a season up there and there has to be such an empowering thing for a team to know exactly what type of team they are MH right and the identity that they know they can go into each and every week and lean on a specific style of play that they know is going to give them a chance right now Florida state they're looking for that identity they don't seem to know what kind of a team they are you know culture and philosop are nice Buzz words in sports especially in football we throw him around all the time mhm Bill O'Brien comes from a background of History all about that he's got eyes for the End Zone inside the 5 yd line down to the four and that brings us down to the two-minute timeout 35 more yards for kyisha Boston College pouring it on in Tallahasse [Music] [Music] [Applause] oh it's an NFL coaching staff and they are taking the NFL approach a lot of times college football teams would look to put their second third maybe fourth stringers in there and I think had the score but NFL coaching staff's you know they they come from the world of just win the game and Bill O'Brien with the game now in a spot where it is over with three knees they're just going to take three knees I think in some ways it's worse what they're doing if I was Florida State I like so you're showing us Mercy huh like if that is not an an explanation point explanation point on this game I don't know what is we don't need the score we could but guess what look up at that scoreboard we proved our for 270 yard I mean what is this Nebraska 1985 270 yards and leis here is a list that you don't want to be on once much less twice and Florida State is about to be on this list for a second time as they are about to become the fourth preseason AP top 10 team to begin a year 0 and2 in the last 10 years I I knew this game was not a Get Right game watching this tape you can see this team and the way they played Florida State last year at home this was going to be a tight game I did not foresee them manhandling the Florida State defensive line to the tune of 267 rushing yards again like this that's a shock after a 19 game win streak that's three losses in a row now for Florida State stretching back to the Bowl game last year as Mike norell going to have to get his team right 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 when they beat
