Bye Week Scoreboard Watching

BC's not playing, but much of today's action impacts our season. Important games of note include:

• Army at Wake Forest. Both teams are on our schedule and both are still considered potential wins. If Army hangs with Wake on the road, I fear they will give us a tough game at West Point.
• Miami at Georgia Tech. Georgia Tech's offense has been clicking. If Miami can't slow them down, I fear how we will handle them.
• Clemson at Florida State. We will be heavy underdogs to both, but Clemson is more pressing since they come to Alumni next week. If they pull off the upset, we could become their trap game. If they get crushed, I think they will want to take it out on us.

Bye week: your chance to comment on non-BC games

Sign No. 1 that I am getting old: I fell asleep watching BC's 4-2 loss to Denver. The good news was that they had a good crowd. The bad news was Conte was hot again and the ice was bad. The guys play UNH tonight.

Sign No. 2 that I am getting old: on BC's off week I am going to Disney on Ice. Before kids I would use BC's bye weeks to go to see other teams. Now I see princesses skating. But it will definitely be more fun than watching Spaz lose again.

I will watch the afternoon games and have a few comments later.
