Temple is pretty bad.


Was this supposed to be red font?


No.


They’ve won 27 games over the last 3 years.

What are you talking about?


They lost to Yukon and army last year, I think you may not have realized Rhule left.


I know who the coach is. I just find it amusing that you think an Addazio coached team is a gimme over a team with 27 wins the last 3 years.


you can admit you didn’t watch a temple football game in 2017, it’s fine.


I was there for their stupid bowl game. Does that count?

BC just lost to Iowa.

Has everyone around here lost their mind? BC is guaranteed to beat UMass, HC and I’ll cede will probably beat Temple. The rest are toss ups at best.


I can't reason with intentionally stupid.


Then call me stoopid because I agree with Epstein on this. I'm still baffled why everyone thinks Addazio has turned the corner because of a couple of wins. He has proven time and time again to revert back to his shitty coaching so why should this time be any different?

He's a 7-6 coach 4 of 5 years. It's a supremely shitty schedule, and should have his best team. Even coaching to his normal level of shittiness, there is no reason he shouldn't get to 8 or 9 next season. Assuming he will lose to Temple is dumb.

I don't know who's arguing what. But, I'm of the opinion that Daz is who he is. And what he is... is a 7-6 coach. I will continue to believe that until Daz proves otherwise.

I am not excusing any losses but you and I both know they will happen. I don't think that, despite the easier schedule and upgraded talent, this fucktard is capable of leading this team to more than 6 or 7 wins. I may be too pessimistic here but Addazio instills ZERO confidence that he'll turn the corner and get a whopping 8 wins this year.

I think but am not sure that both teddy and Mrs. Skinner are saying approximately the same thing but don't realize it and Mrs. Skinner thinks he is agreeing with micro but micro is actually saying something different.

Could be wrong.

I think the near consensus is that 7 wins is not a foregone conclusion as a floor, but that a generic mediocre coach could get this roster to 7 against this schedule 8+ out of 10 times. Micro is being critical of posters assuming BC will beat anyone not in the Patriot League because he's upset about his penile issues, but I don't think he actually disagrees that 7 is about right as much as any prediction can be. Teddy is saying that 7 wins *should* be a foregone conclusion as a floor but is not discounting Addazio's ability to underperform. Mrs. Skinner is arguing Addazio can't break 7, but appears to be imputing an argument that 7+ is likely that I don't really see being made.

if there were ever an opportunity for 8 wins to be underwhelming, the 2018 football schedule reflects that underwhelmingness.

2018 will be the year that all the thinskin fanboys will point at when someone raises the suggestion that this gym teacher is nothing more than a 6-7 wins a year guy

even with his annual wtf loss to wake/rcc/cuse, t.s. slaughter should be able to get to 8 wins.

then again, that is ignoring the always present injurblor that seems to only impact this team out of the 120+ competing in division 1a football - so maybe he youths he way into only 7 this year too

You see those games, but then you will call FSU and L'Ville flukes. Also, bowl games are irrelevant and NCSU was a far better opponent (and in conference rival) that Temple or Purdue will be.

You have got to love these annual college football publications and the "logic" they provide.

Athlon Sports released their annual to the shelves today. So I took a look at their "objective analysis" of Boston College. Of course, they said that of the now 6 seasons Addazio has been head coach, this season (his sixth, wow its been that long) looks to be his best. They rated this team (what with all its 15 returning starters) as the best he has ever coached anywhere since he has been a head coach. That is not the part I found humorous. It was this:

  • Out of 14 ACC teams, BC was rated #2 at running back trailing only FSU
  • BC was rated #1 on the offensive line given 5 returning starters and a possible Outland winner at Chris Lindstrom
  • The have the #5 rated defensive line out of 14 (very nice, well above average by ACC standards)
  • they have the #5 rated defensive backfield out of 14(also very nice)
  • And at linebacker, they are ranked #6, better than average

...and YET, BC is rated just 5th out of 7 in the ACC Atlantic, a team they predict will go 6-6 (3-5 in conference.) Sigh. Yes, that is exactly how bad they evaluate BC at the head coach, QB, and the wide receiver positions. Either that, or what they are saying is completely illogical.

I believe in the 2018 team. I don't believe in the coach, but I believe in this team. They sold me last year. The coach I want fired. This team could challenge Clemson. This team (with a REAL coach) would beat Clemson.

  • they have the #5 rated defensive backfield out of 14(also very nice)
  • And at linebacker, they are ranked #6, better than average

...and YET, BC is rated just 5th out of 7 in the ACC Atlantic, a team they predict will go 6-6 (3-5 in conference.) Sigh. Yes, that is exactly how bad they evaluate BC at the head coach, QB, and the wide receiver positions. Either that, or what they are saying is completely illogical.

I believe in the 2018 team. I don't believe in the coach, but I believe in this team. They sold me last year. The coach I want fired. This team could challenge Clemson. This team (with a REAL coach) would beat Clemson.


I can’t go much higher than 6-7 wins based off our coaching and QB play. If Brown were to get injured there would be a new coaching staff next year. Those two backup QBs are terrifying.

Those two backups both throw better than brown.

Your casual fan isn’t taking 1/2 a day off which is necessary for a 7 pm kickoff.

Unless you live in or around Boston.
