Michigan State faces its toughest test yet.

Boston College made a big splash with a win over Florida State in its opening game (though that win doesn’t look quite as impressive now) and lost by six points on the road last week at a top-10 Missouri team. A running back-by-committee approach had led to a consistent rushing attack under former Penn State and Houston Texans coach Bill O’Brien.
