Florida State (15-2, 4-0) and Boston College (12-5, 2-2) match up for the 21st time on Sunday (noon on the ACC Network). Angel Gray will be on the broadcast team. She played at FSU from 2006-10.

The Seminoles lead the all-time series, 18-2, and own an 8-0 road mark at Conte Forum. FSU has not visited Chestnut Hill since winning 91-71 on Jan. 17, 2019.

The Seminoles rank fourth in the country in scoring offense at 88.2 points per game. Florida State is averaging 0.94 points per play, 79.3 possessions per 40 minutes and 110.6 points per 100 possessions.

Florida State has already scored 90 or more points in eight of its 17 games played this season. Its season low is 75 vs. Georgia State.

In Florida State’s 4-0 start to ACC play, it has out-scored its four opponents (Miami, No. 13 North Carolina, Georgia Tech, Clemson) by +21.5 points per game (90.5 to 69.0).

Perhaps no one in the country has had a more decorated week than freshman guard Ta’Niya Latson. The Miami, Fla., native swept the ACC weekly awards on Monday for the third time this season, earned USBWA National Freshman of the Week for the second time on Wednesday afternoon and was named to the Wooden Award Midseason Top 25 on Wednesday night.

Latson owns 16 20-point games this season, including 14 consecutive heading into Sunday’s contest. Latson’s current streak is the second-longest by any NCAA Division I men’s and women’s freshman ever, only trailing the Atlanta Hawks’ Trae Young and his 18 straight games in 2017-18 when he was at Oklahoma.

Graduate guard Jazmine Massengill is one of the nation’s most efficient players with the ball in her hands. Massengill owns a 2.71 assist/turnover ratio in ACC play, generating 19 assists to just seven turnovers in four games played (1.8 turnovers per game).

Florida State is off to its best start in ACC play since beginning 6-0 in the 2008-09 season.

Looking forward to this one. BC has some talented guards and a big in Gahdeng who is pretty good. They will have some momentum playing at home after a big road win over #10 NCST.
 
Much needed 3!

Timpson went to the bench with 2 fouls. Massengil has been the bright spot on offense so far

FSU finishes the first half with a scoring drought of three minutes, 50 seconds

Lacey's 3 on the final possession hurts. BC finishes on a 13-0 run and leads 34-27
 
BC ended the half on a 13-0 run to take a 7 point lead at the break.

No rhythm on offense and giving Bc too many 2nd chance opportunities
 
Need a big 2nd half from Timpson but she has to stop forcing it when she is getting double/triple teamed because it has ended in a turnover or bad shot

Every time it looks like our ladies are taking control, BC claws their way back. Gotta give their kids credit.
