On Saturday afternoon, the Boston College football team will have their home opener in the first year of the Bill O’Brien era, as they take on Duquesne of the NEC. The Eagles had a very impressive win over Florida State down in Tallahassee in Week 1, and they are heavily favored to beat the Dukes on Saturday, but we all know what happened against Holy Cross last year… let’s hope it doesn’t get as close this weekend as it did then.
Who: Boston College Eagles (1-0) vs Duquesne Dukes (0-1)
Where: Alumni Stadium, Chestnut Hill, MA
When: Saturday September 7th, 2024
Kickoff Time: 3:30pm ET
How to Watch: This game will be broadcasted live on ACCNX and streamed online here
Click here for an overview of the Duquesne team this year. I’m not expecting them to be much of a threat to win on Saturday, but you never know. The Boston College team went down to the wire against Holy Cross last season despite them being an FCS program.
