Pick #1: Thomas Castellanos – Boston College – More than 57.5 Rushing Yards

The Junior quarterback is in his second season with Boston College, and he is every bit as dangerous with his feet as he is with his arm. Castellanos finished last season with back-to-back 100+ rushing yard games and topped 58 rushing yards in 9 of 13 games. The entire offensive line returns this season, and Bill O’Brien, the new head coach, brings a ton of offensive experience and pedigree with him.

Haynes King picked up 54 yards on the ground for Georgia Tech against FSU in the season opener in Dublin. While he’s certainly a capable runner, Castellanos’s running ability is at another level. With BC sitting as three touchdown underdogs, the game script should offer plenty of room for Castellanos to pick up bulk yardage on the ground with FSU sitting back in their 4-2-5 set.

Pick #2: Roydell Williams – Florida State – More than 70.5 Rushing Yards

Boston College had one of the worst rushing defenses in the national last season, allowing 188 yards per game – which was the 13th most in the Division 1. This backfield will likely be a 2-headed monster all season, but Roydell Williams did outrush Lawrance Toafili by a 12-8 margin in the opener. Florida State will obviously be hungry tonight in front of the Talahasee faithful, and their strength this season figures to be their running game.

The Alabama transfer averaged 5.1 yards per carry last season with the Crimson Tide and should see another 12+ touches here in a more favorable matchup. Mix and match these two options in with some other slips tonight and enjoy the last Monday night without the NFL for the rest of the calendar year!
