Addazio will turn out to be a great hire

[MF73-Eleazar]

in fairness to mrs. talon, it wasn't raining anymore but it was cold, windy and wet as b0mbers ass in the middle of a center hash.

that was a miserable gameday experience on many levels

worse than the game against maryland in 2007? coldest road game i've been to.

The game at Wake in 2006 I believe (when Wake won the conference) was as cold as any game I have been at I think. Didn't get close to 30 that night if I remember correctly.

it was 29 degrees at halftime of that game but the wind made it much, much colder to everyone not sucking on a handle of jim beam and falling into nice families seated in the middle of the bc section

That was 2008, and my friend still owes us a streak for his pre-Herzlich Pick 6 wager

[TobaccoRoadEagle]

oh yeah. well, suffice it to say that both games were colder than huang's saggy mewb (which is uncharacteristic for tobaccoroad)

[MF73-Eleazar]

home game against miami in 2007 was fucking cold as shit too. game was at noon or something, still froze.

[Onyx Blackman]

it wasn't even raining anymore by the start of the 2nd quarter

DOMINOJPOST!!!!!

Well played. That was the worst friggin game ever, and I was at the Buffalo (Chris Crane!) and UVa monsoons.

I remember the rain the following week against Wake being worse than the UVA game. Didn't Toby say that Ryan was able to lead the last minute comeback because his hands were dry after 57 minutes on the bench? The coldest game I remember was against UWV in '03 when Pacman Jones ran back a few kicks and PaulPete nearly led a comeback after QP got injured.

Yeah, the week between UVa and Wake was like a 100 year nor'easter that just friggin hovered over Boston for 10 days. Just dumped rain constantly. Both games sucked.

[bchockey04]

The 2002(I think?) home finale against Syracuse was miserable too. High 30's with a nasty rain/snow drizzle. I remember Sean Ryan hurdling a linebacker. Otherwise I just remember being cold.

[MF73-Eleazar]

Shit I was there for that fucking game too.

Music City Bowl was cold as shit, only good thing about the game was Larmond's DB-ankle breaking move on his TD from Davis.

I remember an absolute fucking downpour like nothing I have seen at a game since. I remember it being cold as well. I was a freshman and my high school girlfriend had come to visit from her school in South Carolina and was not handling the weather well. She asked to leave and as soon as we stepped outside te stadium erupted as Matt Ryan threw his first of the comeback touchdowns. We broke up and I never left a game early again.

The Georgia Tech game in 2008 was supposed to be a downpour as well. People were wearing bathing suits at the game. But the rain didn't come during the gam and it ended up being unbearably hot and humid in the stands.

[TobaccoRoadEagle]

We should all thank you and your ex. If it weren't for you taking your bad juju out of the stadium, we would have lost

[BCMurt09]

Likely true. In 07 I had left the room when Matt Ryan threw the first touchdown against Clemson. Never went back in.

The players were wearing bathing suits because they'd pooped in their underwear.

I went to the UVA game not the Wake but was in Boston. The weather was about the same both days. That UVA game wasn't that bad because it was warm. After 2mins you were as wet as if you had just jumped into a lake, but you were not getting any wetter and is was warm and thus bearable. Worst home (Alumni) game I can recall was the FSU game. I don't care if the rain stopped. GTech 1991 was bad. Wasn't there a bad (weather) Thursday night game in the late 90's?

[ATLeagle]

I was at the 2008 Rhode Island game and it was a downpour.

[pick6pedro]

I was hanging out with Ryan following the game and it popped up on sportscenter. He was over the moon and talked about it all night - as he should have. Every time he moved across a room or went to get a beer he'd slow-mo "hurdle" someone.

[Reverend Mike]

Mods, please change the title of this thread to "I remember a rainy game, too. Let me tell you just how rainy it was."

[BostonCollege1]

Wasn't there a bad (weather) Thursday night game in the late 90's?

Thursday night vs. VPI, when they retired The numbers of Flutie & Ruth, was a miserable downpour.

Last night wasn't too fun, either. Sat next to a screaming, swearing (in front of a ton of kids, including his 3 little girls) idiot from England who was a Terps fan. Shut him up by the time he left.

You can tell Addazio turned us around, we are back on the Rutgers forums.

I 100% believe we win the national title in 2007 if Raji plays. It would've come down to the title game against a very beatable OSU team.

I don't know that Raji changes the FSU monsoon game much.

I think he does. We couldn't get any pressure on whatever mediocre QB FSU was trotting out at the time (Weatherford?) and he picked our defense apart. That doesn't happen if Raji is collapsing the pocket on every play.

They went 5-wide with 3-step drops and threw short passes with YAC. Again, Raji helps, but the problem was (as always) the cushion (it was still a problem when Raji played the following season).

[eagle216]

And even then, we still would have won minus the turnovers.

[hansen]

Gents, the future will prove me right or wrong. I stand by my opinion and think BC will climb out of the morass that Spaz left us in

Daz and Proud - Say it out loud!!

climb to 6-6 or climb to acccg?

Will take 4 years but back to the ACCCG

then he was not the right hire... the right hire could go 7-6 next year and then BCS game the following year

Haven't you and most posters (including me) been down on the last year of Jags/first 1/2 year of Spaz recruiting and all subsequent years of Spaz recruiting?

How would you analyze the current talent level on the roster?

the depth is not there but there is still plenty of front line talent to win 6 games in a shit conference and get to some shit bowl game (especially with a senior QB).

timestamp bitches... 12/4/2012

[hansen]

I think he was the wrong hire compared to some other choices.

That said, he's am upgrade over his predecessor. We'll win between 6 and 8 games next year. Anything less than 6 wins would be failure.

damn, i was on a roll that week

Raji was such a disruptive element on the college level though (especially playing alongside Brace). We'll obviously never know for sure but having him on the field throws a wrench into any opponent's game plan.

[twballgame9]

Fair, but I don't remember any reprieve from the cushion bitching when Raji was on the field.

[MF73-Eleazar]

Wow. Getting Hilliman to commit is amazing. I suppose I'm less worried about next year's offense...

[RegalBCeagle]

From shit sandwich to a winning record, a bowl game, what appears to be an excellent recruiting class, two All-Americans, a Doak Walker winner, and Heisman Finalist? I don't think we could've asked for anything more in year 1 post-Spaz. Congrats to Addazio and staff. I'm excited about BC Football again and the program's prospects for the future.
