Boston College heads to Virginia Tech on Saturday (3:30 p.m. ET, ESPNU) for a battle between interdivision — and old Big East — rivals. ACC reporters Matt Fortuna and David Hale break down the matchup.
How to beat Boston College: Neutralize the Eagles' defense as much as humanly possible. They have a new coordinator and some new faces this year , but the Eagles have looked sharp on that side of the ball through two games this season. They came up with some timely turnovers last week at UMass, and while no one will be mistaking the Minutemen for the Hokies anytime soon, it was an impressive performance considering the circumstances, as BC was coming off a tough loss and, more importantly, jet lag from its Dublin trip a week earlier.
