BC-NC State game at noon

The ACC released their schedule for next weekend and BC's game with NC State will take place at noon. It will be on ABC or ESPN 2 depending on your region.

This was somewhat expected as NC State lost the past two weeks. This diminished their national appeal. The Wolfpack will still be favored, but they come in reeling.

This game will be the last home game of the season and Senior Day. I hope the fans turnout and show up before the game to support the players. This could be a fun end to an unpredictable season.

NCSU looked oretty good vs Clemson, but not good vs ND. And meh vs FSU

The generated clisse to 500 yards oiffense vs Clemson. 340 in the sir.


Gonna be a tough game. Which NCSU shows up? Which BC?

Mod, did you have one too many beers when you wrote this gibberish?; Lol

Ha! No, not a drinker. Insomnia at 4 am. (Without clock adjustment) But, yes quite a few typos!

Still. NCSU will be a tough game

We gotta win at the point of attack. If Petrula and co. are blowing them off the line we’ll be just fine. Whole game revolves around being able to move the ball on the ground against a very good front. Hopefully Landry will be back and healthy. Force them into some third and longs and let him pin his ears back

Latest weather forecast - clear and chilly.

Use it to your advantage, BC.

As I recall, NC State doesn't like chilly and (to them) cold weather. ☺️

They don't like the weather, they don't like competition and their QB doesn't run.

John, it gets " chilly" in NC.

I remember a game in Boston when NC State had two great DE and they were expected to beat us handily.

BC won the game and NC State players huddled in front of their space heaters on the sideline.

Just making a little light-hearted comment. ☺️

Kind of like when BC came out against Alabama in the second half in Foxborough (in the cold, wind and sleet) with their shirts torn off at the stomach, to show we weren't cold. Led by Steve DeOssie. 🙂

This will be a big test for the team and we will see whether real progress is being made. Without taking away from the three game streak we have benefitted from playing flawed opponents and having virtually no turnovers.

NC State is a solid team and if we win against them it will underscore that the progress is indeed legitimate. Even playing a competitive game would speak volumes. A blow out puts us back in murky waters and the Syracuse game will become the litmus test.

I am hopeful and I like that NC State is coming into town having suffered two debilitating losses where as BC is fresh off the bye week which was much needed given injuries to Brown and Landry. Playing at home with an opportunity to make a statement much like the FSU drubbing is appealing. Go Eagles!

NC St. 24-10. Best D Line BC will face. I see Brown taking a step backward against blistering rush. So BC becomes somewhat one dimensional with Dillon.

Then, which BC defense will show up is a better question. NC St. has a couple of good receivers and a more than serviceable QB.

Want the Eagles to keep it going, but NC St. and the 'Cuse both will test them.

We rank 6th nationally allowing .78 sacks per game. I don’t think our Oline will be flustered against their “blistering rush.” People predicted the same thing with Clemson and FSU

Jerry Palm just updated his bowl predictions on cbs sports: Pinstripe Bowl - BC vs Michigan.

How fun would that be? Huge game Saturday,is the progress real? I hope it's a good turnout for Senior day and would love to see a Eagles win.

Go 🦅🦅

I hope we win - if only because I enjoy talking about this team more than talking about Steve Addazio.

NCSU is better than anyone we have played in the last three. Just sayin’.
