Florida State hasn’t been a reliable team on the road, but the Seminoles have been unbeatable at home and they tend to win big. Their last two home wins have been by 24 against N.C. State and by 48 against Clemson. Boston College isn’t likely to buck that trend. The Eagles just don’t have the talent to match what Florida State can do.
