For one, they might have come in a little flat.  But really, most teams aren't used to playing a team like BC these days.  It can be a shock to the system.  FSU came in and BC really punched them in the mouth early, and was dominating the game.  BC is a lot better at home than on the road, so that helped too.  We beat New Mexico St in a way too close game on the road, and then rallied and kicked a 52 yard FG to beat Maryland.  Before those, we hadn't won a road game in near 2 years.  Anyway, BC could have won that game but Winston really took over.  We blitzed and blitzed and he would find a way to get away and then hit his talented receivers against our man coverage.  BC is almost defiantly aggressive on defense.  We were leading Clemson on the road, and Boyd hit Watkins with a touchdown bomb against single coverage with no help... but it was called back on a penalty.  When they lined up for the next play, everyone in the stadium knew they would run the same play again, but BC still blitzed with the same lone man coverage and got burnt.  Hunt could have a career day in terms of yardage against BC... BC's hope will be to pressure him into a few key mistakes.
