Neither Boston College nor Pittsburgh faced serious challenges in
Week 1, as the Eagles scored 24 second-points to beat UMass, 30-7, and
the Panthers shut out FCS-level Delaware, 62-0.
While Pittsburgh sophomore receiver Tyler Boyd is
this matchup’s most exciting prospect, each team has a few key senior
prospects that will get late-round looks at the NFL level. Offensive and
defensive line play will be the focus for NFL scouts evaluating this
game’s eligible talent for the 2015 NFL Draft.
Boston College Eagle
Brian Mihalik, DE, #99
At 6-9, 288 pounds, Mihalik’s size stands out before the ball
is even snapped. He impresses once the play begins as well and shows the
ability to get out of his stance quickly, especially for such a tall
defender. He uses his long arms well to get great extension on opposing
offensive linemen, and keeps his head up to watch the play develop and
get off blocks. Mihalik’s motor never quits and he fights hard to make
plays inside, while staying with longer plays all the way to sideline
and downfield. He shows the awareness to recognize situations where he
can strip the ball out as well, and while he lacks the upside of an NFL
starter, his skill set will intrigue teams on Day 3.
