November 10: @ Boston College Eagles

In my opinion, the Boston College game is probably the toughest on the schedule.

It takes place in November when weird things seem to happen. It’s also against a very talented team on the road.

Boston College features one of the best running backs in the nation in AJ Dillon, as well as a talented quarterback in Anthony Brown behind a very experienced offensive line. The Eagles also will have a solid defense.

With all that being said, though, I think Clemson’s focus is just too much. Many teams would falter in a game like this.  But these Clemson football players know what it means to play meaningful games in November. With the win, the Tigers clinch the ACC Atlantic and guarantee themselves a spot in the ACC Championship Game.

Prediction: Clemson 27, Boston College 17
