Can Fordham Put Up Any Type of Fight?

Last season was a major problem for Fordham and they finished the season with a 2-10 record overall. The only real positive for the season came in the second game when they were able to dominate Georgetown 31-3. The offense last season averaged only 15.3 points per game, and if they can only get to that average here, this is going to be a very long game for them. Not only did the offense struggle last year, the only real bright spot for their offense, running back Julius Loughridge, has moved on to South Dakota State. He finished last season with over 1,000 yards and nine touchdowns. 

At quarterback, Fordham has three options, but there is some concern that none of them are all that good. Gunnar Smith is a former three-star recruit, and it wouldn’t be shocking if this ended up being his job eventually, but this is a situation where three quarterbacks could play in this game. On defense, they gave up 28.4 points per game, but that didn’t tell the whole story. They were actually decent at creating turnovers in key situations, and creating a few turnovers here is going to end up being key. 

Why Fordham Will Beat Boston College

• Boston College has failed to cover the spread in each of its last three games against non-conference opponents.

Can Boston College Finish Drives This Season? 

Boston College finished last season with a 7-6 record overall, but if they had actually finished drives, it could have been more. The offense only managed a touchdown 65 percent of the time when they made it into the red zone, and that isn’t close enough to actually be competitive. One reason they had those struggles was because of the pass protection. Jude Browy is back, and he’s going to need to be an x-factor this season. The strength of this offense should be  Jordan McDonald and Turbo Richard and they are going to be a 1-2 punch out of the backfield. 

On defense, there are some areas to improve, but they have a solid base. The defense was great at forcing turnovers, but they have some key players they need to improve. Donovan Ezeiruaku has moved on to the NFL, but it was a deep group behind him last year, and they should step up. KP Price is also back in the secondary, and he could end up being an All-American this year. 

Why Boston College Will Beat Fordham 

• Boston College has won each of its last five games against non-conference opponents at Alumni Stadium (Boston).
• Boston College has covered the spread in each of its last four home games.

Fordham vs Boston College Prediction

I am not actually convinced that Boston College is going to be that good this season, but this is Fordham we are talking about. Fordham has three quarterbacks on the roster, but maybe none of them should actually be starting for this team. This Boston College offense is going to have a huge game with the rushing attack, and that is going to be enough here. Fordham’s offense isn’t even going to find the end zone here, and it’s going to be the Eagles that are going to cruise. This quarterback room just isn’t talented enough for Fordham to really put up much of a fight here. Back Boston College against the spread.
