Florida State vs. Boston College 2017 live stream: How to watch ESPN’s Friday night game online

The Florida State Seminoles and Boston College Eagles will pack into the BC Alumni Stadium to clash in an ACC Atlantic division matchup. Kickoff is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET, and ESPN (livestream) will broadcast the action.

The Seminoles have been struggling to stay healthy this season, as this program already lost star players like starting quarterback Deondre Francois and receiver George Campbell to season-ending injuries. To make matters worse, Florida State already lost to divisional foes like Louisville and North Carolina State.

Boston College, on the other hand, is on a two-game winning streak. Indeed, this is an important game for Boston College’s players, but this matchup is significant for head coach Steve Addazio, too. Addazio is in his fifth season as Boston College’s head coach, and he’s never knocked off Florida State. He’s come close at times but couldn’t seal the deal. This could be the game where he does.

USA Today released its annual updated list of salaries for college football coaches across the country. Jimbo Fisher is once again in the top ten nationally and, somehow has the second highest buyout of all coaches, higher than that of Nick Saban and nearly double that of Urban Meyer or Jim Harbaugh.

It’s no debate that Florida State has been struggling as of late, which is most evident by its 2-4 record to start the 2017 season. Since the beginning of the 2015 season, the Seminoles are just 17-10 vs. Power 5 teams. In 2013 and 2014 alone, the ’Noles had 22 victories against Power Five opponents and an additional win over then No. 5 Notre Dame

The longest active home winning streak ended against North Carolina in 2016, the first time in 22 games FSU lost at Doak Campbell. However, the Seminoles have a current win streak that isn’t as highly profiled, but impressive nevertheless— And that is Florida State’s current six game winning streak on the road with the last five coming vs. ACC teams. Since its last road loss at Louisville in 2016, the ’Noles are 6-0 in true road games and just 3-5 at home.

Florida State has got a lot of great players on their roster. Obviously, they had a tough blow this year losing their quarterback, but they have, you can see that there’s some talented players on their roster right now. The young freshman Blackman is getting better each week, they have got two strong running backs, their tight end Izzo has a lot of experience, their wide receivers starting with Tate I think is a phenomenal player, six-five, 225-pound target. On defense, I mean this was a team that was predicted to be a national championship caliber team early in the year, you can see why, on defense their extremely talented.

Addazio will finally collect his first win against Florida State. The Eagles have the momentum heading into this head-to-head matchup, and Florida State will not be able to stop it.
