2. Force turnovers

It should be expected that Boston College QB Phil Jurkovec will throw somewhere in the range 35-50 passing attempts Saturday afternoon.

A couple of those need to belong to Clemson football.

Boston College’s offense is different from anything we’ve seen from that program in the last decade. The Eagles are a pass-first team and they are looking to open up the field with their wide receivers. Talk about a complete about-face.

The Tiger defense needs to find a way to force a couple of turnovers and allow the Eagles to make a few mistakes.
