Georgia Tech (Ireland)- Win
BC takes an ugly one from GT to start the season off in
Ireland. Towles gets the start and
doesn’t play particularly well, but it able to hit receivers on a few long
passes that are difference makers.
The defense stops GT from getting the option going, and the Eagles ride
an early lead to a close victory
@ UMASS- Win
BC cruises to an easy victory at Gillette. The offensive line shows signs of being
much better than last season, as the Eagles start 2-0.
@ Virginia Tech- Loss
After a 2-0 start the Eagles lose a tough one in
Blacksburg. The offense struggles
and turns the ball over multiple times in the loss. Well the defense plays well they don’t do enough to get the
victory. There are grumblings
about Wade taking over the QB job as Towles hasn’t played particulary well, but
Daz squashes this and announces Towles will stay as the starter.
Wagner- Win
BC gets back on track with a game against a bad Wagner
team. The Eagles are over halfway
to bowl eligibility before the end of September.
Buffalo- Win
Buffalo places a scare into BC after a slow start, but
the Eagles are able to come back and win easily. BC improves to 4-1 as they head into the bulk of ACC play. After back to back wins the calls for
Wade to take over begin to ease off.
Clemson- Loss
The Eagles lose to Clemson at home to a very good Clemson
team. The Eagles start off well,
and Towles is able to make some big plays through the air, but Deshaun Watson
is too much for the defense. Even
with the loss, the team sits at 4-2, with a good shot at making a bowl.
Syracuse- Win
The Eagles pull out a victory over Syracuse to get back
on track after losing to Clemson.
4 out of the 5 wins this season so far have been to teams that won’t
likely make it to bowl games. However,
the team sits at 5-2, and does not have a bad loss.
@NC State- Win
BC becomes bowl eligible over Halloween weekend with a
win over NC State. Like most
games, the defense sets the tone right off the bat. BC is able to use big plays on offense to overcome an
otherwise below average game. At
6-2, the team receives some votes in the polls.
Louisville- Loss
After becoming bowl eligible, they drop one to a very
talented Louisville squad. BC is
able to keep it close for a half, but gets blown out in the second. The loss drops BC to 3-3 in the ACC and
snaps any outside shot at winning the Atlantic.
@Florida State- Loss
BC loses back to back games for the first time this
season after losing in Tallahasee.
Lead by a strong first quarter by Towles, BC has the lead in this one
for most of the game. However,
Dalvin Cook turns it on in the second half and the Eagles lose a close
one. Looking forward, BC has two
easy games to close out the season and improve their bowl prospects.
UCONN- Win
BC finishes off the home schedule with an easy win over
UCONN. While not the toughest
opponent BC plays its most complete game of the season, and are lead by a
strong running attack. BC uses Rouse, Willis and Hillman almost
interchangeably, and runs all over UCONN.
With the win, Daz ties his highest win total as BC coach.
@Wake Forest- Win
BC ends the season with an easy victory down in
Winston-Salem. This wins improves
their record to 8-4, and 4-4 in the conference, the most wins for Daz in a
single season. Even though they
benefited from an easy schedule, the team was able to mightily improve. BC heads to the Sun Bowl, where they
lose to Washington State to finish 8-5
