Scouts and personnel people from the Patriots, Steelers, Lions, Bills, Bears, Falcons, Cardinals, Giants, Colts were among those in…

Now, he’ll have a chance to get up close and personal with the most elite college talent in the country…

When the Eagles head to South Bend, Indiana to take on Notre Dame Saturday afternoon, it’ll be the final time the Eagle swear the road whites and are able to embrace an “us vs. the world” type mentality for four or five hours. You always want…
Photo – @BCFootball It’s only two games, but it feels like the season is already slipping away for BC. The offense could only muster 155 total yards in an ugly 27-10 loss to Virginia Tech on Saturday night at Lane Stadium. The Boston College defense kept it a ball game for as long as it could, but they ended up giving up a back-breaking drive late while a banged up…
If you listened to any of head coach Jeff Hafley’s statements during ACC Media Day a few weeks ago, you could hear a different tone in his voice when talking about the team.

DeBerry and Mahogany were first team selections, Flowers and Garwo second team and Woodbey third team. It’s somewhat stunning Flowers wasn’t also…

A little more than a year after his arrival, Woodbey has become the leader of one of the most talented secondaries in the ACC. The Eagles secondary was impressive in Saturday’s spring game and the reason for that according to Woodbey is in the details. “I feel like we…
PHOTO: ESPN.COM LINE: BC -2 (O/U 55) No three keys necessary again today. With BC looking like a completely different team since the return of Phil Jurkovec, there’s a reason the Eagles are favored in this game, even though it’s only by two points.
