Lots of FBS teams played FCS teams for their first game of the season, yet in spite of yet, nobody allowed fewer passing yards than Miami this week.
I know you can't put to much emphasis on how they played BC, but with the combination of an excelling DL, a disciplined secondary and some nice open field tackling, I think we could have a potentially good defense on our hands.
Also something to keep in mind...
Defensive rank (yards per game)
2012: 120th (486 yds)
2013: 90th (426 yds)
2014: 14th (328 yds)
And now through only the first game I know, we're ranked 3rd. So while I wouldn't advise getting hyped up just yet, I would say to watch the games against FAU and Nebraska very intently.
Syracuse and Boston College are the 2 best defenses in football. We're third. I think it'll be a 3 way battle all season between the 3 of us for best defense in football.
