L - Sep. 3 - vs. GT - Addazio's perplexing decisions snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. GT attempts more passes 10+ yards down the field than we do.
W - Sep. 10 - @ UMass - Exceptionally boring game where the rock does indeed and unfortunately crack, thus providing Dazzler with all the rationalization he needs for another whole season that running up the middle again and again and again is a good strategy.
L - Sep. 17 - @ VT - Reasonably close game that we blow somehow, possibly with bad kicking. EO controversies brew over whether we have the right QB or offensive system, as scoring output thus far has been poor. The Funishment suggests that perhaps we need to replace the head coach.
W - Sep. 24 - Wagner -This game isn't as bad as the Howard game, but it is nearly as bad. QB controversy still brews.
W - Oct. 1 - Buffalo - Buffalo's offense struggles to do much against our defense and we win again, with offense even looking respectable, at certain points, if you squint your eyes and sort of tilt your head. Resident morons convince themselves that we can beat Clemson in a "trap game."
L - Oct. 7 - Clemson - The highlight of this game for BC fans is the closing whistle. Student section enters stadium in 2nd quarter, looks at scoreboard, and immediately turns and leaves. Addazio uses the phrase "Rome wasn't built in a day" in the postgame.
W - Oct. 22 - Syracuse - For the first time since Olivier Hanlan beat Georgia Tech with a baseline jumper in the 2014-15 ACC tournament, we have won a conference game. A wacky and wild affair. Claims are heard that reaching a bowl would constitute a successful season. Funishment attempts to make joke about "moving goalposts" and our kicking game, but it is poorly executed and falls flat.
L - Oct. 29 - @NCST - BC goes on the road and lays an Eagle-sized egg against the "dark horse" of the ACC. No one is happy. Bates signs Addazio to an extension and plants story in A Jersey Guy suggesting he deserves plaudits for "buying low." Because no one subscribes to the Blauds site, no one reads story.
L - Nov. 5 - Louisville - Hoping to save season and get fans to show up, Bates does the red bandana game in November. A hard fought game is lost in the final minutes. Addazio tells us postgame that he's very proud of how his youth-laden team plays, and warns us to mark his words that we're right on schedule to compete for an ACC championship in 3 more years.
L - Nov. 11 - @ FSU - With only the diehards even continuing to watch, with all the pundits having written us off, in a game no one expects us to win ... we come out and get beaten soundly. Run, run, pass is employed with such regularity that our offense rates as more predictable than an episode of Teletubbies.
W - Nov. 19 - UConn - UConn's team is made up of the players we would have taken if our actual players had committed somewhere else. Diaco says something bizarre in the week leading up to the game and many jokes are made at his expense.
W - Nov. 26 - @ Wake Forest - Bowl eligibility is ensured in a game so ugly that it is mocked nationally. Confidence in a 10-2 year in 2017 amongst the fanbase is unshakable.

Bowl Game: BC gets matched up against some good team from a bad conference and loses. Thus the world spins madly ever ownward...

W - Sep. 10 - @ UMass - Towles throws for 300 + 3 TD's in his supposed coming out game
L - Sep. 17 - @ VT - Towles throws for 80 yards and 3 INT's in the anti-coming out game
W - Sep. 24 - Wagner - Towles throws for another 300 + 3 TD's to PROVE THE CRITICS WRONG according to Blauds
W - Oct. 1 - Buffalo - Daz drops the presser line "Proud of this group of young men, we've reached the same amount of wins as last year by October 1st"
L - Oct. 7 - Clemson - the reckoning
L - Oct. 22 - Syracuse - Towles hands the baton to Wade after a gruesome display
W - Oct. 29 - @NCST - The season changing/coach saving victory for 2016
L - Nov. 5 - Louisville - The 40 point loss to mildly decent team that BC deserves
L - Nov. 11 - @ FSU - the reckoning II
W - Nov. 19 - UConn - An ugly, ugly win
W - Nov. 26 - @ Wake Forest - Rumbles about a must-win game lead to tearful victory over a fellow cellar dwellar
L - The ex-Beef O'Brady Bowl vs. UCF - Bates gleefully signs Addazio to a one-year extension during the December practices.
Final Record: 6-7 (2-6)

I like imagining that you mean this literally. I can just picture an irate Daz running up and down the sidelines with the satchel of balls trying to avoid the referees like a pouting child.

Beautiful.

Harold Landry is the first since Keeks to leave school early and is drafted first two rounds. A healthy Hilliman scores around 15 TD's with 1200+ yards with Jeff Smith being our leading WR. Another top 15 defense this year. Landry, Milano, Strachan, Moore, Gutapel, Hilliman, Lindstrom all could find spots on the All-ACC team.

Going 6-6 (2-6) really is Daz's destiny, but I think he'll fuck it up and lose to UConn because he wants us to suffer. He'll blame the failure to get bowl-eligible on giving up a home game to play in Dublin.

I did not make one of these. But considering we were just beaten by the passing attack of a triple option rush offense, it would have been overly optimistic.

2014 Eagle {l Wrote}:L - Sep. 3 - vs. GT- Despite our defense being ready for the GT offense, BC's OLine shows minimal progress from '15 and the O can't get anything going
W Sep. 10 - @ UMass - The "road" game at Gillette starts off slow, but by halftime BC has a decent enough lead that it holds through a boring second half
L - Sep. 17 - @ VT - Loeffler goes back to get one more loss at Lane stadium under his belt.
W - Sep. 24 - Wagner - Not quite Howard 2015 level, but enough offense to let both QBs get some scores and not give any clarity to a now muddled QB battle after a 1-2 start
W - Oct. 1 - Buffalo - Boring game that seems close on the scoreboard, but Buffalo never really had a shot vs the BC defense
L - Oct. 7 - Clemson - Biggest excitement for BC fans is the tailgate as Clemson dominates under the Friday night lights
W - Oct. 22 - Syracuse - Another frustratingly close Syracuse game that BC almost chokes away
W - Oct. 29 - @NCST - Finally things seem to click on the offensive side and the win by a safe margin gives some confidence heading into the next two tough games
L - Nov. 5 - Louisville - BC hangs for one quarter and then falls flat as Louisville wins big
L - Nov. 11 - @ FSU - Another Friday night massacre, this time in Florida
W- Nov. 19 - UConn - Diaco does nothing to make us feel like we missed out by not hiring him
W - Nov. 26 - @ Wake Forest - A win, and more than 3 points combined on the scoreboard

L- Independence Bowl vs Kentucky- Towles goes out with a L against his old team and Addazio hangs on by getting back to having an ok year yet still no bowl win to show for it

Final Record: 7 - 6 (3-5)

and, and a lots of work to be done
no place to hang out our washing
