Pitt actually has a, much, worse game day atmosphere than BC. Atlanta is one of the worst cities in America.

Which destinations are better than FSU & Clemson?
Tallahassee sucks even for a game.
This has been the most pleasant day for BC sports in about 3 years

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.

Hate to say it, and definitely may eat my words a few weeks from now, but it's also possible that we lost 4 games early in the year to very good teams (even Wake looks like a top ACC team this year), have had injuries all over the place, and the youth needed time to develop. Just like Daz has been saying all year. And now that it's finally coming together it's...what does he like to say in all those obnoxious press converences...it's "beautiful."
I think the D took a big step forward as soon as we started playing Landry every down. Just making offenses game plan for Landry, even an injured Landry, has allowed the rests of the DL to shine.
Also, OL looks really good right now. It's always been about the OL and if they're coming together the offense should move.
4-4 with very beatable FSU, NCST, UConn and Syracuse remaining.

I haven't tracked the changes, and when they occurred, but they seemed to arrive at a nice combination of players on the offensive line. It's not the lineup at the beginning of the season, due to injury and what not, but the evolution there has been as significant as any. Add Brown's slowing maturity and Dillon leaving Hilliman in the dust, and the fundamentals have come together. On defense, they still have issues. The LB crew ain't great, and they had a few tackling problems yesterday.

The OLine has been playing well for weeks now. Basically since Notre Dame. The reason we sputtered for so long was mostly coaching. Giving the ball to Dillon last week turned Hilliman's touches into first downs and some freakish long ones. This week UVA came in determined to stop the run and shot themselves in the foot. On both White and Smith's TD, all the UVA defenders were within 6 yards of the line of scrimmage. One guy misses and we were off.

Yes. You will eat your words.
That said, we lost games against 3 very good teams and we lost to Wake. Wake is not good. They are more beatable than Cuse, NCS and FSU. I don't think they'll qualify for a bowl. That said, a loss to a team you should beat is to be expected when you are in the midst of a youth movement... especially early in the year. The remaining games will determine if that is what happened or if these last 2 games were merely the anamolous result of Dazoo trying to save his job.

Those weren't his BEST coaching performances with the team, but both of those wins were in the top five of all time (IMHO.) At the moment, I have no criticisms of the junior high school phys-ed teacher. He is earning every penny of his contract.
That said, I don't think this changes a thing. I don't think Jarmond is all that impressed. I think Jarmond is very happy, just not impressed. I don't think this is going to get Addazio an extension from Jarmond. I don't think we are going to have him pacing the sidelines for the 2020 season. Addazio has (at most) 31 games left to his Power-5 head coaching career.

I do wonder if these games show them how to win and get rid of that culture of losing. A big part of it is just believing you’re going to win
