NC State's best defensive lineman is out with a knee injury.
Here is a good stats page on BC football.
As of this posting Raji's status was still unknown and unlikely for NC State.
This is the first article where TOB really seems to miss BC and Boston.
Ty Hall's dad is probaby the most photographed BC fan of alltime. I hope he keeps showing up next year.
Finally, the pictures keep rolling in. These two are from Mike G.

Picked up this TOB quote reading an ESPN Insider article on the ACC
(http://insider.espn.go.com/ncf/insider/news/story?id=3007245)
Why does it sound nauseatingly familiar?
"The only disappointing debut was that of O'Brien, who made the rare intraconference coaching switch after spending 10 seasons at Boston College. The Wolfpack began the O'Brien era with a 25-23 loss to Central Florida in Raleigh. 'The first thing they've got to recognize is that they're not as good as they think they are,' O'Brien said of his players. 'A lot of these guys got an over-inflated image of who and what they are.'"
From State Fan Nation, talking about Pressley:
His replacement Alan Michael Cash will not make the BC game due to the death of his father.
Here are my pictures from the Wake game, I am getting some more from the NC State. I will post them here too.

Bill, it looks like BJ Raji has played his last game in a BC uniform: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/football/ncaa/09/07/bostoncollege.raji.ap/index.html

BC also announced the redshirt, but he still has a year left of eligibility, so I'm not sure what the last comment means (unless I missed something)
I wasn't trying to go negative. I really hope he takes the redshirt year to rededicate himself to getting his degree and improving himself on and off the field. However, some people had him as high as the very late first or early second round of next year's draft in previews written less than a month ago. Ryan, Cherilus and Tribble should go on Day 1. Most people see BJ as a better pro prospect than all 3. My point was that I would be (pleasantly) surprised if he passed up the chance to leave for the NFL next spring.
I find it interesting that all these profiles of TOB reference his friendship with Belechick ... some how implying that they are equally good coaches. I can appreciate that TOB would form friendships with people of similar personalities, but his coaching style is very different that Belechi'ck's. Can you see Belechick saying "We're up, aren't we?"
