A loss today to Wake forest would have been the fault of special teams play. It would not have fallen on the D. On 105 plays, the defense gave up just 20 points. That is incredible for this D, and incredible inefficiency for Wake Forest. They had to get "lucky" on 4th down 5 or 6 times.

Didn't need it. 5 different people caught a TD pass. BC's offense was never on the field long enough to bother to throw the ball to him. Too many other weapons.

I would rather they have a play book with just 12 plays in it if it meant scoring 6 touchdowns as opposed to a playbook with 50 plays resulting in 3 touchdowns. Its not the thickness of the playbook. It is how they execute the plays. As was said earlier, these are the same plays from 2015. Totally different result.

No idea what to think about this Purdue game.
Let me try to put your mind at ease.
Wake had a lot of returning depth this year, 8 returning starters on offense and 7 on defense (including 2 defensive linemen.) Much like BC, all 5 starting offensive linemen return and Colburn is the 4th best tailback in the ACC. We should not be shocked with all those yards rushing. With the QB coming back from suspension, that is an 8-4 Wake Forest team. This is NOT a rebuilding year for WF. They are built to win this year. That WF team beats Syracuse and might kill Louisville.
OTOH the Purdue team was obliterated by graduation on the defensive side of the ball. I am not sure Neal was a starter on the D-Line last year and if he wasn't, then their entire defensive front are newbies. BC should have at least 28 points scored on Purdue by halftime. The Boilermakers are not going to have 105 plays on offense, nor are they going to score even 21 points in the entire game unless BC gives up another 14 on special teams.
Wake Forest was the true "test" for the early part of the season. This game (given the play of BC on special teams) could have gone either way. That was not a decisive win. But they got the win. BC is 3-0, looking at 5-0 and a perfect record going into October. They should have no trouble with Purdue on the road. I refuse to even dignify Temple.
