The Crimson must replace several key players on both sides of the ball, most notably running back Aaron Shampklin, quarterback Luke Emge and linebacker Jordan Hill. It won’t be easy but head coach Tim Murphy and his staff…

We covered all 15 Division One programs in New England this fall and watched a lot of games. Here are 12 thoughts observations on the season we just had. Boston College had a disappointing season. There is no way around it. Many of us thought they would win 8 or 9 games. Instead, they finished 6-6. Losing Phil Jurkovec to injury was the primary reason for the disappointing finish but…
There’s a reason why “The Game” is a featured broadcast on ESPN every season.

As disconnected as the average person can feel to the life of an Ivy…

UMass hijacked the news cycle this weekend when Athletic Director Ryan Bamford announced that head coach Walt Bell and defensive coordinator Tommy Restivo were relieved of their duties. Rumors began almost immediately as to some possible replacements. The Flagship Faithful are restless. They want to win. It is imperative that Bamford and the administration hire the right guy. Boston College beat Virginia Tech 17-3 in the annual Red Bandanna game…
