In Costellanous interview he mentioned that at B.C. he has to go to class. Do any think in the age of NIL and paying athletes that at other universities athletes are not required to go to class

He called it🙌🙌🙌!

BC and O’Brien top performing team & top performing coach in week 1.

Anyone looking to sell 2 tickets to Michigan State game?

Very light practice, only about an hour. Team already locked in on Duquesne as if FSU never happened

OT because the WNBA doesn't qualify as BB in my vernacular.

I actually like Caitlin Clark and some of her college highlights were bonkers, but the coverage is like the hype on Trae Young coming out of school, but on steroids. There are only so many 28 foot bricks you can watch before you wonder whether it is still a story.

Is he still with the team or in the portal?

So much fun to see a BC team show up for a huge, nationally televised game and play a brand of football akin to that that we all loved two+ decades ago -- that is, stout on both lines, ability to run the ball, tough and disciplined D.

TC was impressive even if not quite as electric as he showed at times last year. I'm sure he'll take over some games with his legs going forward, but since FSU couldn't consistently stop the base runs between the tackles, or figure out the wheel routes, there was really no need to for him to call his own number consistently, or push the ball downfield. That said, both of those options will be needed going forward and knowing they have the personal to run the ball sets up nicely for QB keepers and play action.

Really liked what I saw from the backs vs what was considered FSU's strength -- their DL with a bunch of future NFLers. Not many long runs but some really tough, positive 3-4 gainers. KR was as expected and outside of the fumble had a really nice night. Ward looked really solid too (sans drop on the wheel route on that first drive). Some hard nosed runs in the 2nd half. Turbo was impressive in his first action with a few bruising runs and showing some nice burst through the line.

OL and DL (which were concerns of mine in this game in particular given the high praise for their counterparts on FSU) really dominated. Congrats to Jack Conley as he has taken a ton of shade on the site, but held up well last night. Looks like there is some solid depth on the DL too. Very promising start for both positional groups.

The tackling was excellent outside of that long TD (but that WR is a beast).

Only one penalty is perhaps the best stat of the night outside of the final score.

ST looked solid in limited action. Gunners on punt team need to be better at tracking the ball as they missed a couple of opportunities to really pin FSU down deep, but outside of that not much to critique. Hopefully BC has a reliable FG kicker inside of 40 yards and the returned Stone has been lauding can help the field position battle.

Game at Mizzou is going to be a huge challenge but I love that they have that game on the schedule early as it will give the team, and us as fans, a great sense of where this team is vs a legit top 15 team. Play that team tough and my take is that this team is way ahead of schedule (i.e. the BOB rebuild) and an 8 plus win season is possible. Win it, and talk of a playoff run is warranted. Amazing to even be writing that, but after last night, who knows, as there are really no juggernauts remaining on the schedule.

BC football is fun again.

I saw that he suited up for the game but did he get in at all? Any word on his status? Thanks in advance!

I won't call this my victory lap on certain things, but it kind of is...

That was awesome and this is going to be one hell of a year to cover this team. Alumni better be rocking Saturday even for little ol' Duquesne

Anyone down on the Cape this week who needs a parking pass for Saturday? I'm in Centerville for the week.

Anyone know when they will announce MSU kickoff time? Any early ways of knowing what time is most likely? Does Red Bandana game make it more likely to be a night game?

Putting this here for g2 to help him get fired up for the Ladies 2024 season. And duda…a chance to hear his preseason coach on the year fire up the troops after practice.

Does anyone have the secret sauce in order to watch?

Finally get to kick off the Bill O’Brien era at BC. It’s going to a fascinating season to come. Preseason expectations from the experts always devalue BC even during the Ryan era. Some teams like VT and SMU did not seem as strong as proposed so can BC slide up into that spot?

FSU might have played its worst game and certainly under Norvell. The chess match in this game will be what OB does with TC. If BC runs TC I think they can really stress FSU unless they get the LB’s to downhill. Need Safety’s to tackle. Neither was on displayed in Ireland. Can that get cleaned up in a week? I have by doubts however I imagine Norvell was on the warpath this week. If BC wins they put themselves in the driver seat for a playoff berth. It’s early but FSU is one win that you need for that recognition.

FSU to kickoff.

We were on the positive side of a thoroughly humiliating outcoaching?

I'm not sure it's EVER happened before last night in my >20 years of watching this team.
