Michigan State @ Boston College preview

Alumni Stadium (Chestnut Hill, MA)

Last Meeting ( Dec 28, 2007 ) Michigan State 21, Boston College 24

Unbeaten Michigan State visits Boston College for the programs' first meeting since 2007 on Saturday at Chestnut Hill, Mass.

Playing its annual Red Bandana Game in honor of Boston College alum and Sept. 11, 2001, hero Welles Crowther, the Eagles (2-1) look to bounce back from last weekend's 27-21 loss at then-No. 6 Missouri -- the first setback under new head coach Bill O'Brien.

"For us to be able to go out there and play a game in honor of (Crowther) is a big deal," O'Brien said. "I think it's a great opportunity for Boston College to show off who we are. This is who we are."

Thomas Castellanos threw three touchdowns against the Tigers and ranks second in the Atlantic Coast Conference with nine on the season. The Eagles led 14-3 before giving up 24 unanswered points.

"We're never going to accept losing at Boston College, but these guys fought hard," O'Brien said. "I think if we can do a better job stopping the run, that's going to lead to more success for us in the future."

With last week's 40-0 win over Prairie View A&M, Michigan State (3-0) has won three straight games under a first-year coach in Jonathan Smith for the first time since Mark Dantonio in 2007.

The Spartans have seen both Aidan Chiles and Tommy Schuster make an impact at quarterback, with the latter debuting with his new team last week -- 8-of-10 passing for 97 yards -- after transferring from North Dakota.

Chiles threw for 173 yards and a touchdown, following up a 363-yard performance in a 27-24 win at Maryland on Sept. 7.

"We've got total confidence (Schuster would) be ready to go out there," Smith said. "It's a long season, just like we're dealing with injuries at different spots, he needs to be ready, and he will be."

A new Spartan has recently been added to the injury list in offensive lineman Gavin Broscious.

"You probably won't see him the rest of the year which is unfortunate," Smith said. "Again, these yearly ones (hurt) because he'd been working really hard."

Boston College has a 4-1-1 advantage in the all-time series, including a 24-21 win in the 2007 Champs Sports Bowl in Orlando. The QB matchup in that game featured Matt Ryan against Michigan State counterpart Brian Hoyer.
