Most of their rushing yards come from their QB Murphy.

He has 86 attempts for 711 yards and 8 TDs.
We should come out with a gameplan similar to NC State. Make Murphy throw to beat you. He hasn't proven he can do it. He only completes 56 percent of his passes and has 6 picks to just 3 TDs.

It's way better.qb is run 1st and lots of zone read concepts. Our de will have to play well. If I had to compare to recent opponent, would be Ohio st. BC doesn't have that kind of talent but scheme is similar

Boston College is Louisville with a better QB and offense.***

Not really.

BC is close to dead last (123rd) in the passing game, and the only running attack they have is Murphy. Colorado State and Pitt managed to beat them.

They are 5th in the country in rushing with over 315 yards

per game. They shorten the game by running it so much. Their defense is 19th in the country, holding teams to 5 more points per game than Louisville, and always gives us trouble.
Great defense like Louisville, beat Southern Cal, and run the ball to shorten the game. It will be a struggle.

Most of that rushing attack comes from Murphy.

He has 711 yards on the season. Their starting runningback only has 454. We can play them like we played Brissett and NC State and shut down their offense.
The real question is going to be how we score, because you're right in the fact that they do have a good defense.

better passing game with a healthy Stoudt (and 1 week of practice). Hopefully our receivers will catch the ball this time.

Agreed.

We're going to have to pass to open up the run. Morris running it up the middle against their front to start the game isn't going to work.
Hopefully a week of practice will help Stoudt shake the rust and build some chemistry with our receivers. And hopefully Williams will get over whatever hate he has for Stoudt and catch a pass from him.

Not saying they run the same offense, just saying they have

the same tough defense that is big strong and physical, but their quarterback is better and their offense is at least as good and probably better because of their quarterback will give us trouble.
It will be the same struggle to move the ball that we had last Saturday. Their offense will shorten the game with the style of quarterback they have(which we have struggled with in the past) and we'll get fewer at bats to score.
I look for another low scoring game just like Saturday that comes down to the wire.

If we stack the box with 6 or 7 and play man at the corners, drop one LB into coverage, we should shut them down quite nicely.
