It seems like every game with Addazio is a litmus test for his tenure. I guess this critical game is no different. We are BC!

Go BC - the Eagles take the field in front of 10,000 fans.
Open up the playbook and good things happen. Duh!
Empty student section to start....12 yr old girl who sang national anthem honestly was phenomenal. Best I have heard at any live event. Ton of tailgaters but zero buzz in stands. Thanks Daz.
That's a Miami TD I think. BC defender is 5'9" against a 6'5" receiver.
Easily 2:1 Miami fans to BC in stadium.....#DecideToParty
Imagine how horrible our Dline will be next year...
Dillon - tough
Looks like a fun game brewing. Give Daz an extension!🏈
Looked like all 11 defenders were keying on Dillon initially on that.
Good one, Mr. Brown!
Standslooks full now
Let's go, Special Teams Kickoff Coverage.
What the heck.
Nice check off and catch/run
Hunter Long got hurt on that play. Ankle?
86 Yea
I missed that Jack
Good first quarter.
Saw it on my tape. Hope not serious. Looks like ankle
He limped/skipped back across the field after the tackle at the Miami Bench.
Doug Flutie still looking good
Nice run Negated by penalty
I am constantly amazed at how hard Dylan runs
Look at how tight the Miami defenders are to the line.
Almost!
Throw long.
Come on Anthony
O no. Is he ok?
IBe toughness
OMG
Let’s get creative
That’s OK. If we score on every possession six points or three points we will win
Need to shut them down each time of course
I think sometimes Anthony gets the yips when he feels pressure
BC defense is so bad. Get shredded with the pass.
BC D needs to man up. This QB will shred them!
Bravesbill - at times the defense looks overwhelmed. They can't seem to sustain 3 or 4 plays. Some of that might be coaching signals too, but they really looked bad on that TD run.
That BC settling for a field gold can be a problem now
Walker – good run!
So far this is reminding me of that Flutie versus Miami game was it in 84
Ramman - yes, we should have punched it in there.
Let's hope Addazio doesn't turtle up.
Great job Carissa!
Typical Addazio play - maybe the penalty saved him.
Dumb U
Wow!
#67 looked pretty bad on that.
Special-teams! Yea!
Can we hold Miami from scoring for 97 yards?
Offense Needs to protect the blind side
I’d like to see them call a down and out to Sweeney for Walker on first or second down next time
Our run defense seems to be stout tonight
Good job D
Time for Walker!
Hometown refs. Boo
Phew
Bad clock management by Coach Addazio.
Terrible
Blatant holding there.
If they tie it up or go ahead, it's all on Addazio.
Terrible
Keystone cop
Richardson - Yea!
Unreal. Good stop.
Fans hopefully will stay around.
Addazio need to get this done. Stay open, coach.
I’ve been to more big night games at Alumni than I can count and this is easily the most apathetic crowd I have seen in over twenty years. This will clear out by mid 3rd easy. Unbelievable.
That's what I was afraid of.
Athletic Department has to step up.
I notice that most of the students are not dressed properly for a cold night. But it's clear with little wind. No problem at all for real fans.
I don't get the apathy of fans who are AT THE GAME! It doesn't make sense.
One thing is for sure - I feel kind of helpless from 1000 miles away.
I'll be at the Clemson game yelling and screaming.
Go BC - win the second half.
Throw it away, Anthony.
Ok Defense - don't let these guys tie it up or get the lead.
Last time I saw it like this was end of Bicknell era. No Super Fans, no energy from student section. People pouring out gate near Flutie statue as we speak. My wife (also alum) made an interesting point — the caliber of students they are attracting these days have very little interest in sports, let alone football. This is a close game and you would not know it....
That sack hurt. Brown - shaky
Wrong defensive set.
Fantastic.
We need 7.
O line didn’t pick up blitz.
What are they reviewing?
Run it up the middle, coach.
Stupid - we need 7 - 7 - 7!!!!!
Excuse me, I didn't think Brown made it.
Let's run #2 into 11 defenders.
Too bad. We had Sweeney for a sure TD.
I think the play calling is atrocious
Yes - since the first quarter.
Couple of weeks ago I posted they could play call their way into a loss. This could be one of those games. Hope I am wrong.
Great - let's roll.
As my grabdfather said - when you get them down, don't let them get back up!!!!
Go BC! Beat Miami.
Let’s see if we can keep them pinned down this time
I guess not
Keep it up defense
OMG! Great D!
Let’s get seven this time! Yea Dillon!
Great play calling Scott!
Let's dream big - drive down for another TD right here on this drive.
Go BC!
I'm starting to think that Brown is not our best QB.
He'll certainly be in a fight next year.
Agree
Brown is a one read QB. Said it all season. He needs Dillon. Not good for the future.
Here comes our soft defense against
Boo
That interception changed or may have changed the entire game momentum-wise.
Regroup, Boston College. Stay tough!!!
I want a chalupa!
Zack!
D came through
No targeting!
No penalty. No crown - no targeting. He pulled his head up on a bang bang play.
Do you think the TV guys influence the officials?
Please give us a no call - do not reverse!
I think they sit very near each other.
How are the Red Sox doing
Don't turtle up completely.
Get that first down.
Loefler calling good game
Too bad.
Should never have gone to slow pace
Wow
Stick a knife in their throat. I hope that earlier low tackle on AJ didn't hurt his ankle again.
It will show up after the game.
This is beautiful!!!
Come on 🦅
Come on Addazio - keep them off balance.
Dazoshit is turtling - playing not to lose.
2 down territory. But a FG puts us up 3 scores, really.
Daz is the very picture of composure on the sideline. NOT!
He actually looks like the degenerate gambler Khead after a bet on DIII East Asswipe State goes against him and he has to tell his mother the rent money for his room in the basement will be late again.
After reading this post he’ll next write a crazy non sequitor about Providence College, then declare he can’t be beat.
BTW, there is a poster on both the Northwestern and Purdue boards named Knucklehead who claims he went to those schools too.
Sad.
That’s a shoulder. Hope the kid is ok.
Don’t know if that was Louefler or Daz. But boo!
Georgia Eagle - that 3rd (and 10) down hand off to AJ up the middle was 100% Addazio turtling up.
Loeffler has to override the guy. I really don't think he called that, but was ordered to do so to play for the 44 yard FG.
We will never know!
That was weird.
Hold them. As usual, we are playing the clock, Addazio.
D!
D! ‘Should’ lock it up!
We'll take it.
Here comes 3 up the middle.
So if you are going to milk the clock, coach - DO IT!
We should keep our O in high gear and let the U worry about stopping the clock.
Damn you, Addazio.
Ok, here come the 3rd up the middle.
You had better milk 45 seconds off before the punt.
Horse collar?
Baker is on the ground every play. Line was better last year when he was out
Unbelievable - finally a winning call and we get a stupid penalty.
The Daz, Mr. Calm.
I have been saying all year that Baker gets overpowered.
Clemson will kill us because of that.
What’s going on announcers
Boy, I think we should win this, but we could have put this away.
Keep them in bounds!!!!!!!!
I don't want to see a TD and an on-side kick.
Good defense. This is in the bag.
The fat lady has sung
Congratulations, Boston College!!!!!!!
Give it to someone besides AJ - to keep his average ok.
That's it, take a knee.
Bring on Virginia tech
Nice win, but will be 6-5 when they take on the Cuze to finish season.
Well, I hope you are wrong, but I realize that's a possibility.
Still, I think we can beat Virginia Tech, based on what I have seen a few times from them this season.
I know that FSU is improving, but you never know.
Clemson - oh boy! Our Center will be looking at the sky all night. They will bowl him over at will.
Syracuse will be a very meaningful game. As I have said several years ago, this will once again be a rivarly game for BC - or as close as we can come to one. Dungey gives them a chance against anyone, Clemson included a few weeks ago.
So we'll see - and I hope you are wrong.
Meanwhile, let's enjoy this win for a day!
Dudes, we won. Convincingly. Be happy with the win and stop with the doom and gloom.
VTech is hugely winnable. That defense is poo poo. 500yds to ODU thru the air. 465 to GaTech on the ground.
Great prime time win.
Yes the VT is not the same team of old. Our offensive game is better than theirs and our D is stout especially against the run. And they defended the pass very effectively tonight. They are a college team after all and we cannot expect the perfection of the Pats!
Despite the grousing I heard tonight about the coaching we did win decisively.
We will beat Tech next week.
Beyond that we’ll see.
Go Eagles 🦅
TGS, You are a fucking loser.
You just gave up any credibility by divulging your parousal of the Purdue and NW websites. You didn't go to Boston College and if you did you sure as shit didn't graduate. Bear Hunter.
Order the Thanksgiving ham yet, pinko?
