BC Pre-game thread

Figured since there are at least a few of us we could chat about the upcoming games. With Harris officially being out for Saturday's game, I just don't see how we could win by less than two scores. BC does have a pretty good defense, but offensively they are, well, offensive. My hope is that the offense rolls early and we can get some reps for the backups, especially the lineman.

I would also love to see some of our younger defensive players like Steward, Anthony, Tavaris Barnes, Garry Peters, Desmond Brown, Joe Gore, and Corey Crawford. IF we can use games like this to build depth, it will help tremendously down the stretch and for the upcoming seasons.

BC shouldn't be taken lightly, and it seems the coaching staff is doing everything they can to keep the team focused, but honestly, I just don't have a lot of respect for their team this year. They did lose to Duke after all...

I agree. I hope we don't over look them. It wouldn't be the first time they have bitten us in the ass because we were looking ahead. With that said, I don't think this team is even comparable to the teams in the past. They have shown that they are focused and that they have heart. These guys have been behind at halftime 3 times and have never looked beaten or haggard. I think we handle these next two handily. I would love to see us start rotating in some of the younger guys. Start building that experience and confidence so they'll be ready down the road. Hopefully we can do this for the next 2 weeks before the tarholes come to town.

Well, Harris being out is a big blow to their offense, and they tend to struggle even when he's playing. He was their workhorse against us last season (37 carries for 147 yds). So, yeah, this looks like a great opportunity to get back-ups some playing time. And better yet, it will give us the opportunity to sit our top guys to avoid injury. Staying healthy is key for continued success.

I just hope the players aren't getting cocky.

Maybe they'll let Bellamy start to give all the other rb's a chance to fully heal. Ellington definitely looks like he's not 100%.

A drinking game for the BC game. Although it is intended for BC fans, it sounds like a grand way to get "hammered."

Boston College Vs. Clemson Football Drinking Game - BC Interruption



In order to make it through this Saturday's game between Boston College and Clemson, I have decided to create a drinking game. Let's be honest. Every game this season has made us all want to drink, so why not make it fun and relaxing?

Well, there goes the season. Offense is dead without Boyd.

Sounds like it's just a strained hip. The x-rays and mri came back negative.
