Saturday Blitz Vegas ACC Prediction: Florida State Wins 34-27

Ready for another great escape? If Florida State and Jameis Winston are going to keep digging holes in the first half against teams and then have to climb out of it, Boston College has the perfect formula for that. They are Plus 3 in the turnover margin on the year and have forced 10 interceptions.

Winston interceptions have dug the holes or made them deeper over the past three weeks. Oh, and Boston College has a great rushing attack with Steve Addazio’s brilliance and Tyler Murphy’s great play to the point that it just might be able to maintain its lead for a pretty solid period of time. So watch out.

Florida State, as it always does, will pull it out in the second half with a few huge throws by Winston, a couple of key turnovers forced somewhere on defense, and some random playmaker stepping up once again.

It will be the same old story it has been all season long, and the Seminoles will have to wait until midway through the fourth quarter before they can finally take the lead because Boston College can use its rushing attack to hold onto the lead.
