BC Eagles: What Is in Store for the Maroon and Gold?

BC was up in the fourth quarter when...signature BC...they choked. The stud defense that I drooled over in this article gave up a 43 yard touchdown run and BC could not recover.

They are at a measly 1-1, which could have easily been 2-0 if it hadn't been for the lack of red zone offense. Crane did throw two picks, but he still had a chance to win the game, so in my mind those picks are irrelevant.

They have UCF coming up to Alumni this weekend and this for me is the make or break game of the season. UCF is coming off a heartbreaking loss to USF at home a couple weeks ago. It was a great game and the Knights have had two whole weeks to think about it.

Look for this game to be a close one, but BC is going to come out on top.

As for the rest of the season, this is a year where BC could actually find itself in contention for an ACC title game. Every team in the Atlantic Division is beatable, but in reality BC is going to come out of this season with six or seven wins and will go to try to defend that illustrious bowl winning streak of beating crappy teams in crappy bowl games.

My expectations are pretty low this season so at season end I probably will not find myself screaming f-bombs at the television set when BC blows it once again. But you never know, BC will most likely find a way!

I'll trash BC all I want, but I will still cheer 'em on until the day I die. This year is no different. Give 'em hell, Eagles!
