View ArticleBC coaches in their 2nd Year
What do you expect from Addazio this year? In first years, fans tend to want a new coach to show improvement. They want to see healthy change as the new leader puts his stamp on the program. Years 3...
View ArticleSeason Prediction Part III: what will happen
Last year BC overachieved. Some of that was luck, but a lot of it was coaching. I felt Addazio played to his strengths while still instilling his values and philosophies. While putting that sort of...
View ArticleBC-UMass preview
Despite this nonsense, no one really cares about this game. But I will keep pounding the drum that good UMass Football is good for BC. Will this game make much of a difference for either team or...
View ArticleThat was the Pitts
This game reminded me of the Georgia Tech loss in 2009. It was early in the season and frustrating. After that game, the team regrouped. I hope this team can do the same. Pitt won but we didn’t play...
View ArticleTrampling the Trojans
When I wrote about what BC needed to do in order to get back in a bowl, I said we had to steal a game from one of the big boys on our schedule. We didn’t steal anything Saturday night. We beat USC by...

View ArticlePrepare for Pinstripes?
Earlier Sunday, I had a twitter exchange with News & Observer ACC writer Joe Giglio. He was adamant that BC is going to the Pinstripe Bowl. Joe’s logic makes sense. As he explained in his other...
View ArticleDoes BC need to publicly extend Addazio?

View ArticleBurned in the Bronx
Once again it came down to a kicker and BC got burned. But even though the game seemed in hand at various times in the second half, I don’t feel like BC played well. This was not a good Penn State team...
View ArticleThe day after the Pinstripe Bowl
