The announcer just said UVA has never beaten BC. I don't think this is true.

Can’t believe they decided to kick a field goal. Bronco is a dumbass.

Joe Spazianni the long-snapper for the successful Virginia FG. Yes Frank's son.
Yes I am a BC fan. Proof of this is my dog's name is Baldwin.

3 points gets them within 3 scores. 0 points and the game is over.

it looks to be true

https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/pl ... d=virginia

also, somewhat unrelated, but our record against NC State is 8-5, 9-3 against Maryland, 13-10-1 against Wake Forest. Don't see any reason why BC can't consistently be the best team out of that heap and I'm excited to make NC State fans upset again this year

That is true, but you need to start scoring touchdowns now.

Don’t like that play call on 3rd and short.
Shovel pass? Meh

When Bronco kicked the FG and then followed that with the punt on 4th & 5, some irate UVA fan let loose a torrent of abuse that would have made anyone on this board proud. UVA fans are a bitter and angry lot.

UVA could finish 5-7. The Coastal would be a better division for BC. I also like the destinations better than the Atlantic.
There's no doubt that Daz is no longer involved in the offense. He is not in the middle of any offensive huddle on the sidelines and he is no longer managing the clock. I think we would have won at Clemson if he actually got tossed in that game.

Back to .500 with 4 games to go. UConn will be a win and FSU, NC St and SU are all winnable games.

I don't know what I just watched but I liked it. We played well all around. If we continue play like that we win the rest of our games.

BC might be favored against FSU. 8 days ago that would have seemed like a crazy statement.

FSU is reeling right now. I would love to see BC run this uptempo smash mouth and take the Noles out early

Does someone tapped into the program have some insight on how this happened?

I’m not buying it just magically happened.

I am not tapped into the program, but I would say it's a combination of Anthony Brown improving quickly, AJ Dillon being the featured back and the play calling putting these guys in a position to succeed.

Has the play calling really changed that much?

Only difference I see is now we have a lot of 3rd and shorts which adds flexibility to your play calling (run or pass) as opposed to 3rd and 10 when we couldn’t run the ball on first and second.

I think the execution by the players has def improved but in my mind the coaching is the same.

Perhaps it's just Anthony Brown being able to hit his passes that makes the play calling look better. But we seem to be a bit more aggressive.

BC has topped 40 points in back to back games for the first time since 2002 (Rutgers, Toledo). First vs BCS/P5 since 1998 (GT, Rutgers).

Tallahassee sucks even for a game.
