Boston College
Steve Addazio is this decade’s Chan Gailey. You know what that means, 7 wins, 7 wins 7 wins and more 7 wins seasons. Last year was another 7 win season for Steve Addazio. After 6 seasons of decent but rarely great football, what does Boston College want to do if the Addazio can’t exceed the 7 win total for a 7th straight season?
Will Go 9-3 (6-2) if:
The Eagles can take advantage of a manageable opening near 2 months of the season. Look at this schedule – Virginia Tech, Richmond, Kansas, at Rutgers, Wake Forest, at Louisville, NC State. Is there a game there Boston College should feel they can’t win? That’s a schedule a quality team can start the year 6-1 or 7-0. Boston College brings back their starting QB Anthony Brown, leading receiver Kobay White, and super stud RB AJ Dillon.
If Thomas can continue to improve as a passer, the offense will keep defense from keying on AJ Dillon. The defensive line needs to grow up quickly as they will be an inexperienced unit. If that happens, and the defense improves from a 2018 ranking of 70th in the country, BC can win a lot of games in 2019.
Will Go 5-7 (2-6) if:
The defense doesn’t improve. Bill Sheridan takes over at DC from Jim Reid, because of mediocre defensive play. Another season of that, and BC could have issues. Even in the best of circumstances, BC doesn’t want to get in a lot of shootouts. Their offense just isn’t built to win a lot of games like that.
The early part of the schedule is easy, but lose 2 of 3 to Virginia Tech, Wake Forest, and NC State at BC and the homestretch will finish off the Eagles. The could easily lose their last 5 games at Clemson, at Syracuse, FSU, at Notre Dame and at Pittsburgh. Anthony Brown needs to take the next step as a passer.
