HiStory & recordS
OFFENSE Quarterbacks (Lettermen Returning/Lost:3/0) Boston College’s starting quarterback position is in the firm grasp of 6-foot-3, 213-pound junior Chase Rettig. He has started 21 games over the last two seasons and has thrown for 3,198 yards and 16 touchdowns. Rettig finished his sophomore season strong, leading the Eagles to victories three times in the final five games of the season, including a 24-17 win over the Hurricanes in which he completed 13-of-17 passing attempts for 196 yards and two touchdowns. Josh Bordner, a 6-foot-4, 221-pound product of Sykesville, Md., returns for his sophomore campaign and is listed second on the quarterback depth chart. Bordner saw limited action in five games (all consecutively to close out the season) primarily as a rushing threat in 2011. Senior Mike Marscovetra, a letterman in 2010, and senior Dave Shinskie, a two-year lettermen from 2009-10, will provide capable competition and veteran depth at the position, with highly-regarded redshirt freshman Christian Suntrup out of St. Louis, Mo., also competing for playing time.
2011 SeaSon review
a
s Boston College prepares for the 2012 campaign, it does so in the interest of continuing to build upon the success it produced down the home stretch last season. For, although the Eagles slipped below .500 on the year and missed out on postseason play, the program showed promise and resolve in capturing three victories (over Maryland, North Carolina State and Miami) in the final five games of the campaign. That growth was perhaps never more evident than in the team’s final game at Miami when the Eagles combined an intelligent defensive performance featuring four interceptions from four different defenders with an efficient, yet diverse, offensive attack that was highlighted by two tailbacks combining for 153 yards on the ground and 196 yards out of the arm of quarterback Chase Rettig, who completed 76 percent of his passes. Boston College loses only six starters from that team, including All-America linebacker Luke Kuechly, four-year starting cornerback Donnie Fletcher and special teams extraordinaire Ryan Quigley. While you don’t replace Kuechly, the NCAA career record holder for tackles per game, the Eagles appear to have a solid corps of linebackers in the program. All totaled, 17 starters and 44 lettermen are back. In fact, it’s interesting to note the Eagles lead the nation with 98.5 percent of its offensive yards returning in 2012. Boston College will also feature a new offensive staff headed by coordinator Doug Martin and offensive line coach Jim Bollman. Martin came to BC having served as Kent State’s head coach for seven seasons from 2004-10. Bollman, who is entering his 36th year coaching, served as offensive coordinator and offensive line
coach at Ohio State the last 11 seasons, coaching in three BCS national championship games during his tenure with the Buckeyes. In all, the 2012 Eagle coaching staff has 198 years of combined experience among them. The Eagles open the 2012 season against Miami, the same team they played and beat in last year’s finale. This time the game is in Chestnut Hill, Mass., and will be played on Sept. 1.
coacHeS & Staff
Junior RB Andre Williams and the Eagles will look to build on late-season momentum in 2012.
SeaSon Preview and a 4.3 average yards per carry last fall. Bolstered by the contributions of sophomore letterman Tahj Kimble, who carried the ball 43 times and registered eight receptions out of the backfield, the running back position should prove to be an offensive strength for Boston College in 2012. Finch returns after having led the team in rushing attempts (157) and rushing yardage (705) as a sophomore. His 2011 campaign was highlighted by a 243-yard rushing performance in the team’s victory at Maryland, an effort that stood as an ACC best for tailbacks last fall. Williams is a 6-foot, 220-pound power running back who has registered 219 career attempts for 978 yards and six touchdowns. Offensive Line (Lettermen Returning/Lost: 6/2) Boston College returns six lettermen on the offensive line – senior Emmett Cleary, sophomore Andy Gallik, sophomore Bobby Vardaro, senior John Wetzel, junior Ian White and sophomore Harris Williams. The graduation of versatile veteran offensive linemen Nathan Richman and Mark Spinney, who combined to participate in more than 60 games during their careers, will open two key positions to fill along the Eagles offensive line. This might give reason to pause. Yet, the performance of Cleary, a 6-foot-7, 313-pound senior who has 25 career starts entering the season, the addition of veteran offensive line coach Jim Bollman, and the return of Wetzel and White, who each have more than 12 career starts, should give fans a reason for optimism. Cleary ranks second behind tight end Chris Pantale among offensive players in starting experience. Gallik, a 6-foot-3, 300-pound product of Evergreen Park, Ill., played in nine games as a redshirt freshman last fall and registered three starts along the offensive line. Vardaro, a 6-foot-5, 312-pound guard, played in all 12 games as a redshirt freshman last fall and started each of the last eight games at right guard. Williams, a 6-foot-4, 301-pound product of Lynn, Mass., played in seven games as a freshman and recorded his first collegiate start in the team’s season finale at Miami. Among the returnees competing for playing time this year are junior Bryan Davis, sophomores Seth Betancourt and Aaron Kramer, and redshirt freshmen Dave Bower, Dan Lembke, Liam Porter and Victor Nelson. Wide Receivers (Lettermen Returning/Lost:6/1) Two fifth-year seniors – Donte Elliott and Colin Larmond – are the senior returnees at the wide receiver position. Larmond is one of the team’s top receiving threats. He is a 6-foot-3, 202-pound product of Whippany, N.J., who has led the Eagles in yards per catch in each of his last two seasons (2009 and 2011). Elliott has played in 20 career games. The Houston, Texas, resident registered three receptions for 26 yards as a junior last fall. Three juniors – Alex Amidon, Johnathan Coleman and Bobby Swigert – return and aim to build on their experience of their first two collegiate seasons. Amidon, a versatile local product of 14
Greenfield, Mass., has 21 career receptions for 558 yards and three touchdowns and has 15 carries for 59 yards and one touchdown in his first two seasons. Coleman, a 6-foot-4, 228-pound junior, has 19 career receptions and eight career starts entering the 2012 campaign. Swigert has been a favorite target of Chase Rettig in their first two seasons. A 6-foot-1, 186 pound junior from Louisville, Ohio, Swigert has led the team in receptions in each of his first two seasons at the Heights and has caught 80 career passes for 964 yards and seven touchdowns. Spiffy Evans, who emerged as the team’s primary kickoff return man and played in 10 games as a true freshman in 2011, aims for a breakout sophomore campaign. Brian Miller will also look to contribute to the Eagles passing attack. Miller is a 6foot-4, 232-pound tight end that will also be used in H-back formations. Freshman Joel Karim Zoungrana, who is from Montreal, caught four passes for 109 yards and two touchdowns in the spring game. Tight Ends (Lettermen Returning/Lost:2/1) Six-foot-six, 255-pound senior Chris Pantale leads all Atlantic Coast Conference returning players entering the 2012 season with 36 career starts at tight end. He has ranked among the team’s top three receivers and has been the top receiving tight end in each of his first three seasons at Boston College. A native of Wayne, N.J., Pantale has 77 career receptions for 797 yards and five touchdowns. He will seek to build upon his final performance of the 2011 campaign in which he led the team with a careerhigh 70 receiving yards and two touchdowns in a 24-17 win at Miami (Nov. 25). Junior Mike Naples, who played in nine games last fall, and sophomore Jarrett Darmstatter, who caught four passes for 44 yards in the spring game, will also be relied upon at the position. DEFENSE Linebackers (Lettermen Returning/Lost: 6/2) Perhaps one of the more intriguing storylines about Boston College football is how its defense will adjust to the loss of Luke Kuechly, a dynamic defensive performer who accounted for 535 tackles in three seasons. Among the returnees at the position are senior Nick Clancy and juniors Steele Divitto, Andre Lawrence and Kevin Pierre-Louis. Clancy is a 6-foot-3, 232-pound senior from Plainfield, Ill., who has seen action in 30 games over the last three seasons. Divitto, a 6-foot-3, 238-pound junior from Ridgefield, Conn., started all 12 games at strong side linebacker last fall and finished the season ranked third on the team 92 tackles. Lawrence, a native of Hartford, Conn., saw action in 10 games as a sophomore last fall. Pierre-Louis is a 6-foot-1, 215-pound junior from Norwalk, Conn., who leads at Boston College returnees on the defensive side of the ball with 22 career starts. He finished the season ranked second on the team with 74 tackles in nine games. Rounding out the returnees are sophomore Sean Duggan and
Junior LB Kevin Pierre-Louis
recorded seven tackles for loss which tied for third among all BC defensive performers. Mihalik made his collegiate debut against Massachusetts on Sept. 24 last fall and played the final nine games of the season. He recorded six tackles and two pass breakups. Ricci played in all 12 games as a true freshman in 2011, earning four starts. Among others competing for playing time are sophomore Mehdi Abdesmad, sophomore Matt Murphy, redshirt freshman Kieran Borcich and redshirt freshman Connor Wujciak.

2011 season review
SPECIAL TEAMS Lettermen Returning/Lost: 3/1 Boston College returns three (of four) specialist letterwinners in 2012 – placekicker Nate Freese, long snapper Sean Flahery and holder Gerald Levano. After a remarkably successful performance by the field-goal kicking unit in 2010, in which then-freshman Freese was successful on 88 percent of his field goal attempts (22-of-25) and 96 percent of extra points (23-of-24), Boston College was successful on 10-of-16 field goals attempts (63 percent) while maintaining its exemplary performance on extra points in 2011, connecting on 26-of-27 PATs. It will surely be looking to return to form in 2012 as Freese is back for his third season as the team’s placekicker. A 6-foot, 185-pound junior from Strongsville, Ohio, Freese has connected on 32-of-41 career field goal attempts in the last two seasons (78 percent) and has already matched the school record with four field goals in a game three times. Punter Ryan Quigley’s graduation marked the end of four outstanding seasons of exemplary contributions and steadfast reliability to Boston College’s kickoff and punt teams. A four-year starter, Quigley played in 52 career games and concluded his collegiate career having dropped and downed 78 punts inside opponents’ 20 yard line and stands as the school’s career record holder (284) for punts. Levano, who served as the back-up punter and primary holder on field goals and extra points last fall, is listed atop the depth chart. Also competing for playing time will be 6-foot-5 redshirt freshman Alex Howell.

Defensive Line (Lettermen Returning/Lost: 7/2) Boston College returns seven lettermen on the defensive line – senior Bryan Murray, senior Kaleb Ramsey, senior Dillon Quinn, junior Kasim Edebali, sophomore Dominic Appiah, sophomore Brian Mihalik and sophomore Max Ricci. Among the returnees, Edebali, an end, leads all defensive linemen with 16 career starts. In 2011, the 6-foot-2, 258-pound product of Hamburg, Germany, started all 12 games and recorded 27 tackles and a team-high five pass breakups. Ramsey, who missed nearly all of the 2011 season because of injury and was granted a medical hardship waiver, has 13 career starts at the position while Quinn, a 6-foot-6, 312-pound senior from Elmsford, N.Y., started eight games last fall and has 10 career starts entering the fall campaign. Quinn tallied 21 tackles, including four tackles for a loss, last fall. Appiah played in 11 games as a redshirt freshman last fall and was listed at the top of the team’s depth chart at left tackle eight times. The 6-foot-5, 291-pound Appiah

Defensive Backs (Lettermen Returning/Lost: 8/2) Senior Jay McGillis Scholarship recipient Jim Noel highlights a total of seven returning lettermen in the Eagles’ defensive backfield. Noel is a 6-foot-4, 200-pound product of Everett, Mass., who has played in 33 games over the last three seasons and is the team’s starting strong safety. Noel joins seven sophomores – cornerback Manuel Asprilla, cornerback James McCaffrey, cornerback Al Louis-Jean, cornerback C.J. Jones and safety Josh Keyes, safety Spenser Rositano, safety Sean Sylvia and safety Dominique Williams – to form the returnees in the Boston College defensive backfield. Asprilla, a 5-foot-10, 167-pound sophomore from Everett, Mass., saw action in each of the last nine games of his true freshman campaign in 2011. He recorded four starts and was listed either first or second on the depth chart in each of those nine games. McCaffrey, a native of Winchester, Mass., played in all 12 games as a redshirt freshman and picked off two passes in the spring game. Louis-Jean, a 6-foot-2, 195-pound product of Brockton, Mass., played in 10 games as a true freshman last fall. Jones, a resident of Wilmington, Del., returns for a sophomore campaign after having been granted a medical hardship waiver last fall. Jones saw action in 12 games as a freshman in 2010 and suffered a season-ending injury in the second game of the 2011 campaign at Central Florida. Keyes played in nine games as a true freshman last fall while Rositano, Sylvia and Williams each appeared in 11 games. Rositano finished his true freshman campaign ranked fifth on the team with 40 tackles last fall.
season Preview
redshirt freshmen Nick Lifka. Duggan is a native of Cincinnati, Ohio, and a graduate of St. Xavier who played in 10 games as a true freshman and is set to slide into the middle. The 6-foot-4, 228-pound Duggan registered three starts at weak side linebacker. Lifka will battle for playing time at the linebacker position having earned the program’s scout team award during his redshirt freshman season in 2011.

Head CoaCH Frank Spaziani
F
rank Spaziani is beginning his fourth year as head coach of the Boston College football team and his 16th season overall on the BC football staff. Widely regarded as one of the best defensive minds in college football, he was named head coach in 2009 after a 10-year run as the Eagles’ defensive coordinator and two as running backs coach. Spaziani’s head coaching record now stands at 20-19 (he was credited with BC’s 25-24 win over Navy in the 2006 Meineke Car Care Bowl as he served as interim head coach following the departure of Tom O’Brien). The son of first-generation Italian-Americans Joseph and Regina Spaziani, “Coach Spaz” grew up in Clark, N.J., and never forgot his roots. The values of hard work, toughness, dedication, humility, loyalty and honesty he learned as a boy have formed the foundation for his coaching philosophy. Spaziani would become the last player recruited to Penn State by a young assistant named Joe Paterno, who went on to become the head coach the next year. Talented in baseball as well, Spaziani was originally recruited as a quarterback but eventually became a defensive end before serving as a graduate assistant for Paterno. His first season as head coach at Boston College (2009) required more than a few tough decisions due to several key injuries. By mid-summer, expectations were low; at the ACC’s Operation Football in July, the league’s media predicted the Eagles would finish dead last in the Atlantic Division. But the team overachieved, finishing with an 8-5 record, tied for second in the ACC Atlantic Division, and played in its 11th straight bowl game, giving

The 2007 Eagles began the season 8-0 and were ranked No. 2 in the nation in both major polls. The team won the Atlantic Division of the ACC and finished 10th in the final AP poll, BC’s best finish since the 1984 season. In 2006, Boston College led the ACC with five defensive touchdowns. The Eagles were third in the ACC in scoring defense and Jo-Lonn Dunbar was named National Defensive Player of the Week when he scored two of BC’s three defensive touchdowns vs. Maryland. In 2005, BC led the ACC in rushing defense (90.8 ypg.) and red zone defense (25-39, 64.1 percent) and was third in scoring defense (15.9 ypg.). The 2004 Eagles were ranked in the top 10 nationally in scoring defense, top 20 in rushing defense and top 25 in pass efficiency defense. In 2003 BC was ranked second in the Big East in total defense and rushing defense. During the 2002 season, the Eagle defense was ranked 13th nationally in passing defense, 25th in pass efficiency defense, 23rd in scoring defense and 37th in total defense. Spaziani joined the BC coaching staff after three seasons with the Calgary Stampeders of the Canadian Football League. During his coaching tenure at Calgary, he served two seasons as the defensive coordinator. Prior to his coaching stint at Calgary, he served as the defensive coordinator for two years with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Spaziani spent nine years as a member of the Virginia coaching staff, where he was defensive coordinator for his last five seasons in Charlottesville, after having been defensive backs coach for the first four. Spaziani is a 1969 graduate of Penn State, where he was a star defensive end on the Nittany Lions teams that tied Florida State in the 1967 Gator Bowl and defeated Kansas in the 1969 Orange Bowl. He began his coaching career in 1969 as a graduate assistant to Joe Paterno at Penn State. After three years as an assistant high school coach, he became head coach at Hempstead (N.Y.) High School in 1973, and a year later, at Raritan (N.J.) High School. He joined head coach George Welsh as an offensive assistant at the U.S. Naval Academy in 1975 and went with Welsh from Annapolis to Virginia in 1982. Frank and his wife, the former Laura Heikel, are the parents of three children, Joseph and twins Avery and Andrew.
tHe eagles
national power USC all it could handle in the third-most-watched bowl game televised on ESPN. True freshman linebacker Luke Kuechly was named ACC Defensive Rookie of the Year after coming out of nowhere to lead the league in tackles and averaging more tackles-per-game than any rookie since the NCAA began tracking the stat in 2003. And the Eagles continued their proud tradition of achieving in the classroom, becoming one of only six FBS programs in the country to receive a Graduation Success Rate score of 90 or better. The 2010 season followed suit. The Eagles began the season 2-5 and were plagued by injuries to key defensive starters Alex Albright, Wes Davis and DeLeon Gause. Midway through the season, 25 of the 44 players on the team’s two-deep were freshmen or sophomores. But led by the nation’s leading tackler (Kuechly), the Eagles became the first team in ACC history to win five consecutive games after losing five in a row. In so doing, they became eligible for their 12th consecutive bowl game. The squad led the ACC in total defense and the nation in rushing defense. Thanks in no small part to a series of injuries to key players, the 2011 team stumbled to a 1-6 start before regrouping to finish the season strong, winning three of their final five ACC games. Kuechly led the nation in tackles for the second straight year and became the most decorated defensive player in Boston College football history. He captured the FWAA’s Bronko Nagurski Award as the nation’s top defensive player of the year; the Lombardi Award, given to the nation’s top interior lineman or linebacker; the Dick Butkus Award, as the nation’s top linebacker, and the Lott IMPACT Defensive Player of the Year Award. A two-time consensus All-American, Kuechly was the 2011 ACC Defensive Player of the Year and a first-round NFL draft selection. A number of outstanding freshmen and sophomores saw significant playing time by the end of the season, providing an optimistic glimpse into the future. Three freshmen, in fact, earned Freshman AllAmerica honors, including DT Dominic Appiah, G Bobby Vardaro and LB Sean Duggan. Spaziani’s reputation as an outstanding coach was built upon a decade of producing one of the toughest defenses in college football. In 2008, the Eagles ranked in the top 10 in the nation in seven defensive categories, including interceptions (first, 26); turnovers gained (second, 36); total defense (fifth, 268.14 ypg.); red zone defense (sixth, 72 percent); first downs allowed (sixth, 14.71 pg.); rushing defense (seventh, 91.2 ypg.), and pass efficiency defense (98.81). The Eagles advanced to the ACC Championship game for the second consecutive season. In addition, Herzlich was named ACC Defensive Player of the Year. In 2007 Spaziani’s defense ranked second in the nation and led the ACC in rushing defense, allowing just 75.5 yards per game. Senior free safety Jamie Silva was a consensus AllAmerica first-team selection and was one of three finalists for the 2007 Jim Thorpe Award, which is given to the nation’s top defensive back. Spaziani was part of a staff that led the Eagles to an 11-3 finish, the first BC team to win 11 games since 1940.

a senior, he entered BC in 1965 and would become the greatest receiver in the school’s history before graduating in 1969. He set school marks for receptions with 87 and receiving yards, 1,325 (Mel Briggs eclipsed both of the records in 1973). He had 735 yards and established a season record for catches (46) as a senior (a mark eventually broken by Gallup protégé Brian Brennan in 1983). He also played two years of college basketball for legendary former Boston Celtic Bob Cousy. Upon college graduation, Gallup turned down an offer to play with the Boston Patriots and began his career in teaching and coaching, working in the Swampscott school district. In 1970, he embarked upon a 20-year coaching career with the Eagles when he became a part-time assistant coach at BC. He became a fulltime assistant in 1973, coaching the team’s defensive line. His role changed to receivers and tight ends coach and head recruiting coordinator when Jack Bicknell arrived as head coach in 1981. As an assistant first to Joe Yukica, then to Ed Chlebek and finally to Bicknell, Gallup established himself as a top recruiter and football strategist. Gallup played a key role in attracting some of the nation’s most talented players to BC, including Heisman Trophy winner and current New England Patriot Doug Flutie, Joe Nash, Fred Smerlas and Peter Cronan. He coached several future professional players while directing the receiving corps, including Brian Brennan (Cleveland Browns), Mark Chmura (Green Bay Packers), Kelvin Martin (Dallas Cowboys), Pete Mitchell (New York Giants), Tom Waddle (Chicago Bears) and the brothers Flutie, Doug and Darren, who both went on to play in the Canadian Football League. As BC’s primary recruiter, he was one of the key builders of bowl-bound BC teams in 1982 (Tangerine Bowl), ’83 (Liberty), ’85 (Cotton) and ’86 (Hall of Fame). He was inducted into BC’s Varsity Club Hall of Fame in 1983. Gallup took over the Northeastern football program in 1991. After going 4-7 his first year, Gallup built the program into a winner that finished with a 6-5 mark in 1996 and an 8-3 record in 1997. He was named New England Coach of the Year in 1997. His 1998 senior class left as the most successful in school history. He left NU with an overall coaching record of 38-60-1. Before returning strictly to coaching in 1998, Gallup had an eventful fouryear tenure as NU’s athletics director in which the department successfully earned NCAA certification, initiated a comprehensive strategic plan to achieve gender equity, and added several prominent coaches, including highly respected hockey coach Bruce Crowder and men’s basketball coach Dave Leitao. Gallup resides in Wellesley with wife, Victoria. They are the parents of Lisa Ann, a nurse in New York City and a 2009 Boston College graduate; Barry Charles Jr., a financial analyst at Morgan Stanley in New York City and a Notre Dame graduate and football letterman; and the late Darren Douglas.

Chestnut HIll, Mass. (AP) - Backup Kain Colter threw for 197 yards and ran for 71 more with a touchdown to lead Northwestern to a 24-17 victory over Boston College in the season opener. Colter completed 17 of 24 passes and Northwestern won for the first time since Dan Persa ruptured his Achilles tendon last Nov. 13. Persa, who had been touted as a Heisman Trophy contender by the school, was a late scratch. Andre Williams, who replaced the injured Montel Harris, ran 22 times for 114 yards and two touchdowns. Luke Kuechly had 19 tackles, two for a loss, and an interception for BC. BC brought the ball to the Northwestern 19 with 18 seconds left before a false start moved them back and took 10 seconds off the clock. Chase Rettig was sacked by vince Browne on the final play and remained on the field for several minutes. Ifeanyi Momah caught eight passes for 171 yards for the Eagles, but Nathan Freese missed a pair of field goals. Rettig, a sophomore who took over as the starter midway through last season, completed 24 of 44 passes for 375 yards with one interception, but he couldn’t find anyone open on the game’s final play. Persa led the nation in completion percentage and total offense last year before he had surgery on a ruptured Achilles tendon Nov. 13; Northwestern lost its final three games, including the TicketCity Bowl. Boston College was without Harris, the Atlantic Coast Conference preseason player of the year. 82

Neither absence seemed like much of a setback. Harris’ replacement, Andre Williams, broke free for 69 yards on the first play from scrimmage. But BC settled for a field goal, and got nothing on its next trip inside the Northwestern 15 when Freese missed a 31-yard field goal. The Eagles made it 10-3 when Kuechly intercepted Colter and ran it back to the Wildcats’ 3 yard-line. After a penalty, Williams scored on a 6-yard run to give BC the lead. Colter tied it when he ran it in himself from 3 yards out to complete a 10play, 80-yard drive just before the half and then led Northwestern on another just like it to start the second. Mike Trumpy scored on a 5-yard run to give the Wildcats a 17-10 lead, and they went up 24-10 on a perfect option pitch from Colter to Adonis Smith with 9:24 left. Rettig hit Momah for 38 yards to the 2, and two plays later Williams ran it in to make it 24-17 with 6 minutes left. But Northwestern stopped the Eagles on fourth-and-10 with under 3 minutes left, and by the time BC got the ball back there was 1:37 left and they were on their own 36. After an intentional grounding left the Eagles with third-and-16 from their own 30, Rettig brought them to the Northwestern 19 with 18 seconds left. But there was movement before the snap on the left side of the offensive line, resulting in a 5-yard penalty and a mandatory 10 second runoff from the clock. With 4 seconds left, Rettig rolled right but could not get rid of the ball before Browne tackled him to end the game.

University & media
The Knights had the ball for 19:52, compared to 10:08 for the Eagles. Boston College had just four possessions in the half, punting on their final three. UCF didn’t get in the end zone, but did put its extra time to use. The Knights were aggressive from the start, mixing 13 passes into their 37 total plays for the half. The Knights also racked up 100 rushing yards, led by Godfrey’s 46 yards on nine carries. Meanwhile, Cattoi made all three of his field goals from 36, 35 and 32 yards away. UCF’s defense also kept Williams at bay in the opening 30 minutes. His first touch of the night went for 16 yards, but his final seven carries of the half netted 27 yards. Boston College had a few big plays, but managed only four first downs. Rettig was also a paltry 3 for 8 for 27 yards through the air. He was also sacked twice deep in Eagles’ territory to set up a Knights’ score. The Eagles’ biggest bright spot of the half came on the defensive side, with linebacker Luke Kuechly posting 10 tackles. Both teams traded field goals in quickly played first quarter. Boston College got on the scoreboard first via a 47-yard field goal by Nate Freese. The drive nearly stalled on the UCF 33-yardline, but was kept alive by a fourth down pass play by Rettig to Bobby Swigert. UCF then answered with a 36-yard boot by Cattoi, capping a 15-play, 49yard drive that took more than seven minutes.
History & reCords
Orlando, Fla. (AP)- Central Florida used a trio of fourth quarter touchdowns and three field goals from kicker Nick Cattoi to top the Eagles 30-3. The Knights defense was stingy against Boston College, holding them to 141 total yards. The Eagles were only 1 of 12 on third down as quarterback Chase Rettig was sacked three times and intercepted twice. Rettig finished 10 of 23 passing for 70 yards. Andre Williams, who racked up 122 yards and two touchdowns last week against Northwestern, had only 59 yards 12 carries. UCF clung to a 9-3 lead throughout the third quarter until Godfrey completed back-to-back passes of 17 and 28 yards in the final minute of the period to get the Knights inside the 5. Godfrey snuck in from 1-yard out two plays later to put the Knights up 163 with 14:51 left in the game. Rettig was then picked off by A.J. Bouye on the Eagles’ ensuing possession, giving the ball right back to the Knights on the Boston College 49. UCF’s offense picked up where it left off, in six plays they got back into the end zone--this time via a 1-yard plunge by Murray--to extend its lead to 23-3 with 9:30 left. Murray had four carries for 38 yards during the drive, including a 19-yard scamper. Godfrey added one more 4-yard touchdown rush to provide the final margin. UCF won time of possession in the first half and took at 9-3 lead into the locker room.

Chestnut Hill, Mass. (AP) - Sean Renfree tied a school record with 40 completions and scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 1-yard run with just under 10 minutes left to lead Duke to a 20-19 victory over Boston College in the Atlantic Coast Conference opener for both teams. BC had an excellent chance to win, but Nate Freese’s 23-yard field-goal attempt hit the left upright and bounced back with 43 seconds left. Freese had already made two long field goals. Duke won for just the second time in its last 11 conference openers. Renfree threw 52 times for 359 yards and two touchdowns to Conner Vernon. He tied the Duke record of 40 completions set by Thaddeus Lewis in 2009 against North Carolina State. Duke rallied from a 19-7 deficit late in the first half and went ahead with 9:57 to go. Renfree led the decisive 70-yard drive after the Blue Devils wasted two solid scoring opportunities in the second half - an interception at the BC 3 and a missed 33-yard field goal attempt. With a first down at the Eagles 4, Anthony Boone was held to no gain and Jamison Crowder gained 3 yards before Renfree just made it into the end zone on a play that was reviewed. BC scored first on a 31-yard pass from Chase Rettig to Tahj Kimble, ending a 55-yard drive with 5:57 left in the first quarter. It began after Spenser Rosi84

Duke then marched 63 yards in just 51 seconds to score on Renfree’s 21yard pass to Vernon and trailed 19-14 at halftime.

Louis caught the ball in the air and ran down the middle of the field. Jesse Julmiste had a 100-yard kickoff return for a score for the Minutemen, and Jonathan Hernandez carried 22 times for 80 yards and a TD. It was the 24th meeting between the schools, dating back to the first in 1899. BC leads 19-5, winning its seventh straight. Rettig completed 14 of 22 passes for 196 yards with the three TDs and no interceptions. Andre Williams carried 20 times for 95 yards and last season’s Atlantic Coast Conference leading rusher Montel Harris returned from preseason left knee surgery and ran nine times for 27 yards. Colin Larmond, Jr. had two TD catches -- 36 and 37 yards -- and backup running back Tahj Kimble had a 3-yard run for a score. The Eagles’ Hampton Hughes picked off UMass Pagel on the first offensive play of the game, giving BC the ball at UMass’ 47. Eleven plays later, Rettig hit tight end Lars Anderson with a 1-yard score to give BC a 7-0 lead. After a short drive by the Minutemen, the Eagles took over on their own 45 and marched to the UMass’ 8 before the stalling. Nate Freese booted a 26yard field goal, making it 10-0.

Chestnut Hill, Mass. (AP) -- Boston College linebacker Kevin Pierre-Louis has a number usually worn by running backs. He had a chance to look like one, too. Pierre-Louis picked up a fumble and ran 96 yards down the middle of the field for a score to help the Boston College Eagles finally smile a bit after their first win of the season, 45-17 over Massachusetts. “The ball was tipped and we always practice tip drills,” said a wide-smiling Pierre-Louis, who wears No. 24. “I was happy to see on the Jumbotron -- (linebacker) Luke Kuechly and a couple of guys behind me. They had my back.” Chase Rettig threw for three touchdowns and Pierre-Louis had one of two TDs returned by BC’s linebackers for scores. Linebacker Nick Clancy had the other fumble return for a score -- 16 yards late in the third quarter -- about 4 minutes before Pierre-Louis. The Eagles (1-3) were off to their worst start since opening 1991 with four losses under then-coach Tom Coughlin. “You look for positive reinforcements,” BC coach Frank Spaziani said of the win. “A victory is the best re-enforcement you can have.” Leading 38-10, UMass QB Kellen Pagel was hit near the goal line, Pierre-

Chestnut Hill, Mass. (AP) -- Tanner Price threw a 47-yard TD pass to Chris Givens on Wake Forest’s first possession of the second half as the Demon Deacons opened a 15-point lead before holding off Boston College 27-19. Boston College’s Montel Harris carried 22 times for 108 yards, setting the school’s all-time rushing record with a 26-yard carry early in the fourth quarter, with 3,735 yards, breaking the mark held by Derrick Knight (2003). Knight had 3,725 career yards. Boston College’s Chase Rettig completed 23 of 47 for 188 yards with a TD pass and an interception, but he was stopped a yard short on a fourth-and-4 run at Wake Forest’s 44 with just under two minutes left. The Demon Deacons, who scored on their opening drive of both halves, held a 24-9 lead early in the final quarter. Nate Freese kicked four field goals -- three in the opening half -- for the Eagles (1-4, 0-2). After holding Boston College to a three-and-out on the first drive of the second half, Price hit Givens on a short pass and he broke free down the left sideline for a 47-yard score, leaping over an attempted tackle by Spenser Rositano near the 5 before going into the end zone to make it 24-9. The Eagles appeared to be ready to get closer, but Harris fumbled at the 86

Demon Deacons’ 5 to end the ensuing drive. They picked off a pass and took over at Wake’s 45 on the next possession, but Rettig threw a deep pass into good coverage and was picked by Cyhl Quarles at the 5. After coming up empty three times after good field position, Boston College converted on the next try when Rettig’s 2-yard toss to Alex Amidon capped a 41-yard drive and cut it to 24-16. Harris set up the score with his record-breaking 26-yard carry, but he left the game briefly after injuring his left knee. Boston College moved to Wake’s 10 before the drive stalled with 6 minutes left. Freese’s 32-yarder cut it to 24-19. The Demon Deacons needed a big play and Price delivered. On a third-and15 from his own 15 with just over five minutes left, Price hit Terence Davis on a 44-yard pass along the right sideline. On the next play, Michael Campanaro hit Given for 36 yards, setting up Jimmy Newman’s 22-yard field goal that made it 27-19 with 2:59 left Wake Forest took the opening kickoff and marched 74 yards on 11 plays, with Harris capping it on a 2-yard run to make it 7-0. Price was 4 of 5 on the drive for 57 yards.

rounded him. Death valley, 78,000 strong for homecoming, was silent as Boyd remained on the ground. He was finally carried off the field, his left leg held above the turf. He was taken to the locker room for X-rays and Clemson announced he had a hip injury. Boston College tried to catch Clemson groggy after Boyd’s departure, Chase Rettig’s 24-yard pass to Bobby Swigert cutting the lead to 26-14. The Tigers, though, found their footing and fast-paced attack under freshman backup Cole Stoudt, the son of longtime NFL quarterback Cliff Stoudt. Catanzaro added a 47-yard field goal and Ellington broke out for a 36-yard touchdown run on fourth-and-1 to seal the victory. The Eagles have had their successes at Death valley -- they’ve won two of the three times they’ve played here since joining the ACC in 2005 -- but were without injured star Harris and his backup, Andre Williams.
History & reCords
Clemson, S.C. (AP) - Tajh Boyd threw for a touchdown and ran for another before leaving No. 8 Clemson’s 36-14 victory over Boston College with a hip injury that raised concerns about how long the Tigers could stay undefeated without him. The severity of Boyd’s injury wasn’t immediately known. He came in leading the Atlantic Coast Conference in total offense and has been the catalyst for the Tigers’ first 6-0 start in 11 years. Clemson (3-0 ACC) got five field goals from Chandler Catanzaro and 117 yards and a touchdown from tailback Andre Ellington to put away Boston College (1-5, 0-3). The Eagles played without ACC preseason player of the year Montel Harris, who aggravated a knee injury in last week’s loss to Wake Forest. Boyd, a sophomore, had thrown for 200 yards or more each game this year and was on his way to a third 300-yard performance when, with Clemson ahead 23-7, he was hit by Boston College defensive end Max Holloway. Boyd tried to get up but rolled back to the ground as coaches, teammates and trainers sur-

Blacksburg, Va. (AP) - David Wilson didn’t even wait to get to the locker room at halftime before finding running backs coach Shane Beamer and giving him a simple message. “We need to run the ball more,” Wilson said he told the head coach’s son. The coaches agreed. When Wilson gave the Hokies the lead with a 42-yard touchdown run on their first possession of the second half, No. 16 Virginia Tech had finally found its offensive rhythm and was on its way to a 30-14 victory against surprisingly stubborn Boston College. “I was like, `Let’s run the ball,”’ said Wilson, who had just six carries for 21 yards in the first half but finished with 17 for 134. “I felt like we were getting away from what we do.” Logan Thomas took over after Wilson’s long run gave the Hokies a 13-7 lead. He hit Marcus Davis for a 20-yard touchdown, and then ran in from the 1, giving the Hokies a 27-7 lead. The Hokies (7-1, 3-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) won their third in a row, all games in which Thomas has scored at least one touchdown on the ground and through the air. The Eagles’ first touchdown drive covered just 35 yards on their opening series after a shanked punt, and their last - 72 yards in 11 plays - came in the fourth quarter with the Hokies leading 27-7. 88

“Once we got inside the 50, we stalled,” Eagles quarterback Chase Rettig said. He accounted for both scores, running two yards for the first and hitting Chris Pantale for a 7-yard TD. Eagles linebacker Luke Kuechly, who had 19 tackles to stay on pace for an NCAA record, said the attention to getting Wilson involved after halftime highlighted his potential. The Hokies had plenty of trouble in the first half, managing just a pair of field goals. After Wilson softened things up with his long run - Thomas rolled right with him, then made an option pitch to Wilson once defenders closed in - Thomas was able to get going, too. He was 10 for 11 for 126 yards after halftime, and 22 for 36 overall for 268 yards. The Eagles mounted their first real drive after Wilson scored, but on first-and-10 from the Hokies’ 22, Tariq Edwards intercepted Rettig’s pass at the 11, and Tech drove again. Two runs by Wilson covered the first 20 yards, and Thomas had a 29-yard completion to Danny Coale before throwing one up for Davis to go get in the end zone on the next play. The 6-foot-4 Davis easily came down with the ball despite close coverage by 6-1 cornerback Donnie Fletcher.

Maryland’s next possession ended when Sean Sylvia intercepted a deflected pass, and two plays later wide receiver Alex Amidon scored on a 21-yard touchdown run for a 14-3 lead. After a Maryland punt, Boston College mounted an 80-yard drive that ended with a 3-yard touchdown run by Andre Williams.

College Park, Md. (AP) - Rolandan Finch ran for 243 yards and two touchdowns, and Boston College defeated Maryland 28-17 for its first Atlantic Coast Conference victory of the season. Finch, a sophomore, never before broke the 100-yard mark and had run for 266 yards in six games before Saturday. He had 152 yards rushing at halftime, finished with a career-high 39 carries and had a team-leading two catches for seven yards. Linebacker Luke Kuechly had 12 tackles and an interception to help Boston College (2-6, 1-4) snap a three-game skid. Maryland (2-6, 1-4) coach Randy Edsall started C.J. Brown at quarterback, then switched to Danny O’Brien in the second quarter. Both threw an interception, and neither moved the offense until O’Brien threw a 55-yard touchdown pass to Adrian Coxson with 6:39 left. That made it 21-10, and after a failed onside kick, Finch scored his second touchdown to clinch it. Brown went 2 for 6 for 14 yards, and O’Brien completed 14 of 35 passes for 165 yards, including 141 in the fourth quarter. Maryland got off to a miserable start, beginning when Nick Ferrara bounced the opening kickoff out of bounds. Boston College needed only six plays to cover the 60 yards, the last five on runs by Finch for 7, 5, 9, 8 and 18 yards. Brown threw an errant pitch on the Terrapins’ first offensive play, but he recovered the loose ball and got a field goal out of the drive.

Chestnut Hill, Mass. (AP) - Chase Rettig completed 11 of 18 passes with one touchdown in the Eagles’ 38-7 loss to Florida State. Florida State’s EJ Manuel threw for one touchdown and ran for another as Florida State opened a 28-point halftime lead that the Eagles couldn’t recover from. With their fourth straight win, the Seminoles qualified for a bowl game for an NCAAbest 30th consecutive year. Boston College (2-7, 1-5), which had gone to a bowl game for 12 straight years, was guaranteed its first losing season since 1998 and was eliminated from bowl contention. Manuel completed 12-of-16 passes for 180 yards and ran 16 times for 37 yards. Devonta Freeman ran for 62 yards and two touchdowns, and Nick O’Leary caught three passes for 87 yards. Rettig split time with freshman Josh Bordner after the first six drives resulted in five punts and a fumble. Bordner was 1-of-2 for 37 yards, and he ran seven times for 45 yards. Manuel did most of the damage in a dominant first half, when Florida State scored on three consecutive possessions. With 4:51 to play in the second quarter, the Seminoles led 28-0; they had outgained BC 214 yards to 16 and held the Eagles without a first down. Bordner came into the game and, sharing time with Rettig on the drive, led BC 74 yards to the Florida State 1 before Rolandan Finch fumbled. 90

Finch, a former fourth-stringer who had 243 yards against Maryland last week, had two fumbles in the game while gaining 59 yards on 28 carries. Luke Kuechly had 20 tackles - 12 solo - for Boston College, his 31st straight game with 10 or more. Manuel threw for 321 yards and two touchdowns last week in a 34-0 victory over North Carolina State - the Seminoles’ fourth consecutive game with more than 425 yards of total offense. Against BC they had 307. Florida State failed to get a first down on its first possession, but it got the ball back on the BC 2 when Anthony McCloud knocked the ball free from Finch and Smith fell on it. Two plays and a penalty later, Manuel hit Bert Reed for an 8-yard touchdown pass. The Seminoles scored early in the second quarter on Freeman’s 12-yard run and, after another BC three-and-out, Manuel completed a 58-yard pass to O’Leary before taking it in himself from 1 yard out to make it 21-0. After another BC three-and-out, Freeman marched Florida State down the field before scoring from the 3 to give the Seminoles a 28-0 lead. Bordner entered the game for BC and, on his first snap, ran 25 yards for the Eagles’ first first down of the game. From the Seminoles’ 39 he hit Bobby Swigert on a 37-yard completion that brought the ball to the 2. But Finch was stuffed for a 1-yard gain on first-and-goal, and on second down he lost the ball on his way to the line of scrimmage.

NC State, coming off a shutout win over rival North Carolina last week, drove 61 yards in 13 plays on its first possession before the drive stalled and Niklas Sade kicked a 32-yard field goal. Glennon completed 7 of 8 passes for 60 yards with the only incompletion a drop by T.J. Graham. The Wolfpack had four first downs on their first drive of the game, but only had three more until midway into the final quarter. The Eagles improved their lead to 14-3 late in the first half on Rettig’s 17yard TD pass to Colin Larmond Jr. BC started with good field position after Wil Baumann’s 24-yard punt gave them the ball at their own 41. Rettig completed consecutive passes for a combined 23 yards and Williams carried six times mostly up the middle - for 16 yards. Except for the final possession - which was a one-play kneel down to end the half - BC went into NC State territory each time it had the ball in the first half. Washington’s scoring run cut it to 14-10 midway into the third quarter. on a third-and-4 from the Eagles’ 38, Glennon lofted a pass to tight end Quinton Payton that dropped in between four defenders.

Chestnut Hill, Mass. (AP) - Starting quarterback Chase Rettig threw for a touchdown, backup Josh Bordnerran for a score and Boston College held on for a 14-10 win over North Carolina State on Nov. 12. Rettig completed 9-of-13 attempts for 118 yards, and Andre Williamscarried 18 times for 61 yards. Mike Glennon completed 28-of-40 passes for 220 yards and James Washington had a 3-yard TD run for the Wolfpack (5-5, 2-4), who moved deep into BC’s territory in the closing minutes before Glennon’s pass was tipped at the line and fell to the ground on a fourth-and-5 play with 1:10 left. Wolfpack corner back David Amerson extended a school-record with his NCAA-leading 10th interception in the first half. NC State held BC to minus-2 yards of total offense in the second half. Boston College linebacker Luke Kuechly had 18 tackles - nine in the final 13 minutes - for his 32nd straight game with double digits in tackles. He entered the game leading the nation with 150 after leading the nation with 183 last year. The Eagles led 14-3 at halftime. North Carolina State started at its own 18 with 13 1/2 minutes left in the game and marched down to the Eagles’ 23 before Donnie Fletcher picked off Glennon’s pass in the end zone. Boston College took the opening kickoff and marched right down the field in five plays, grabbing a 7-0 lead when backup quarterback Bordner scored on a 3-yard run off an option play.

Notre Dame, Ind. (AP) - Jonas Gray rushed for a touchdown, David Ruffer kicked three field goals and No. 24 Notre Dame recovered an onside kick with just under 2 minutes to play to hold off Boston College 16-14. Ruffer had field goals of 40, 41 and 27 yards for the Irish (8-3), who matched their victory total from last year with their fourth straight win. But it was a costly victory, too, with Gray leaving in the third quarter with what looked to be a knee injury. Gray, who was enjoying a breakout year after a lackluster first three seasons, had extended his scoring streak to eight games with a 26yard run on the opening drive of the game. The Eagles struggled to get anything going offensively for most of the second half, with Chase Rettig throwing 10 incompletions in a row at one point. But Rettig got on track just in time to make things interesting, finding Chris Pantale for a 21-yard gain and throwing a 17-yarder to Rolandan Finch as the Eagles advanced to the Notre Dame 16 with about 3 minutes to play. A pass interference call on Zeke Motta moved Boston College to the 2 and, after a false start and an incompletion, Rettig connected with Bobby Swigert for a 7yard score. Boston College (3-8) went for the onside kick, but Robby Toma recovered it and Notre Dame ran the clock down to just eight seconds. The Eagles got the ball back and lateraled several times before Irish linebacker Troy Niklas made the final tackle around the Boston College 15 to end the game. Notre Dame has beaten Boston College three years in a row after losing six straight. 92

Eagles linebacker Luke Kuechly was credited with 14 tackles, leaving him one shy of the Boston College career record. The junior did set the ACC record with 523 career tackles. Notre Dame looked as if it was going to have an easy afternoon when it marched 80 yards on its opening drive, capped by Gray’s rumble through the Boston College defense. But the Irish offense stalled twice just outside the Boston College red zone, and Tommy Rees was picked off around midfield on another drive. Rees finished 24-of-39 for 256 yards. Cierre Wood had 98 yards for Notre Dame, giving him 1,001 for the season. Michael Floyd had 10 catches for 92 yards in his final game at Notre Dame Stadium.

History & records
Miami, Fla. (AP) - Luke Kuechly ran an interception back for a touchdown and became Boston College’s all-time tackles leader, and the Eagles picked Jacory Harris off four times in his final college game en route to beating Miami 24-17. For Miami, the biggest news wasn’t the outcome in the season finale for both teams. It announced during the fourth quarter that coach Al Golden has agreed to a four-year extension through Feb. 1, 2020. Chase Rettig threw two touchdown passes to Chris Pantale for Boston College (4-8, 3-5 Atlantic Coast Conference). Kuechly also topped his single-season ACC record for tackles, passing the mark of 183 he set last year. Lamar Miller had a 79-yard touchdown run for Miami (6-6, 3-5), the longest carry by a Hurricane since 2000. Harris had thrown five interceptions all season entering the day and matched a career-worst with the four on Friday.
University & media
The Eagles won their 2011 season finale, 24-17 over Miami, thanks in part to Luke Kuechly’s 45-yard interception return for a touchdown. 93

BC FootBall timeline a HiStoRY oF BoSton ColleGe FootBall — Text by Reid Oslin, Boston College, ’68 The 2012 season will be the 114th year of intercollegiate football competition for the Boston College Eagles. Here are a few of the milestones that have been reached along the way: 1891 — The Boston College student body was granted permission, but no money, by President Edward I. Devitt, S.J., to organize a football team. Joseph F. O’Donnell (1892), a Dorchester native with some previous amateur football experience, helped organize a team that played an informal schedule the following year. 1893 — Boston College began formal football competition. The team’s first game was a 4-0 victory over St. John’s Institute, an amateur power of the day (touchdowns were scored as four points by existing rules). BC played its first intercollegiate game on October 25, a 6-0 loss to Tech ’97, an MIT class team. The first varsity game was a 10-6 victory over Boston University in the final contest of the year. Joseph C. Drum (’94) served as BC’s first football coach and the team’s captain was Bernie Wefers (1894), who briefly held the world record in the 100-yard dash. 1894 — The Boston College football team got its first compensated coach, William Nagle. The school adopted the team colors of maroon and gold. 1896 — Boston College and Jesuit rival Holy Cross met for the first time in a home-and-home series. Boston College won both games, by scores of 6-2 and 8-6. 1900 — College President W.G. Read Mullan, S.J., refused to allow a football team to play under the school’s name. Students formed an independent team named “Boston Combination” that competed locally. Fr. Mullan relented and allowed a varsity team to be fielded the following year. 1903-1907 — In a reaction to the growing public outcry against the violence of college football, as well as for economic considerations, the sport was dropped at Boston College. U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt summoned the leaders of college football to Washington and urged that the rules of the sport be tightened. The resulting rules committee evolved into the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). 1908 — Varsity football was restored at Boston College. The team practiced on the Massachusetts Avenue Grounds, the site of a former city dump. Team members mowed the grass and lined the field before practice sessions. 1913 — The college moved from its original location on James Street in Boston’s South End to a new campus in Chestnut Hill. The football team’s locker room and equipment storage area were located in the basement of the “Recitation Building” (renamed Gasson Hall in 1952), but coach Hiker Joy’s team walked to the public park in Cleveland Circle for daily practice.
The 1893 Boston College Team
BC won its first game in 1915 on middle campus. 112
1918 — Because of required military training for students in preparation for World War I, the football team was forced to limit practice sessions to no more than one hour per day.
1920 — The Boston College football team adopted the nickname “Eagles.” The season was capped by a stirring 14-0 victory over Holy Cross before 40,000 fans at Braves Field. The win gave the team a perfect 8-0 season and the school’s first “Eastern Championship.”
tHe eagles
1919 — A returning war hero, Frank Cavanaugh, was hired as BC’s football coach. Known as “The Iron Major,” Cavanaugh had been badly wounded in the Battle of San Mihiel, but recovered to launch a coaching career that would eventually lead him into the College Football Hall of Fame. In his first season at BC, he led his team to a startling 5-3 victory over heavily favored Yale — the biggest win in school history to that point. A 1943 movie, “The Iron Major” starring Pat O’Brien, chronicled Cavanaugh’s life story. Part of the film was shot at the former Liggett Estate (now O’Connell House) on BC’s upper campus.
season Preview
1915 — The original Alumni Stadium was dedicated on October 30; however, the inaugural game was won by arch-rival Holy Cross by a 9-0 score before some 5,000 fans. A week later, Boston College won its first on campus game, defeating Fordham, 3-0. The stadium was located on middle campus on the site of today’s Stokes Hall.
1921 — The team’s budding success drew national interest. The Eagles were invited to play Baylor in the dedication game of Dallas’ Cotton Bowl stadium. The BC team, which made the 2,400-mile trip by train to play its first intersectional contest, responded with a 23-7 win over the Bears.
1928 — McKenney’s first year as head coach was perfect — 9-0 and yielded another Eastern title. McKenney would later gain entrance into the College Football Hall of Fame as a highly respected college football official.
1939 — On February 7, Frank Leahy is named head football coach. “I have come here to succeed and to win football games,” he told alumni a few days later. He did both, as the Boston College football team won 20 of 22 games played in the ensuing two seasons. The Eagles lost only one regular-season game in the 1939 campaign (7-0 to Florida) and became the first New England team in 20 years to earn a New Year’s Day bowl invitation. The Eagles met Clemson in the Cotton Bowl on January 1, but lost a close 6-3 decision to the Tigers.
History & records
1940 — An undefeated (11-0) season, capped by the Sugar Bowl championship and the claim of a national championship made this arguably the greatest season in Eagle football annals. On November 16, BC handed Georgetown its first football loss in three years when “Chuckin’” Charlie O’Rourke eluded a host of tacklers and took a safety in his own end zone as the clock expired to give the Eagles a memorable 19-18 victory. Sportswriter Grantland Rice described the contest as “the greatest game of football ever played.”

1936 — BC names Gilmour Dobie, another future College Hall of Fame member, as its head football coach. The Eagles’ schedule is upgraded to include such national rivals as Kansas State, Kentucky, North Carolina State, Indiana and Florida, and home games are shifted to Fenway Park and Braves Field. Dobie’s teams lose only six games in his three-year tenure.

BC FootBall timeline 1941 — On January 1, the Eagles would lay claim to the national championship with a 19-13 victory over Tennessee in the Sugar Bowl. Again, O’Rourke provided the heroics, scoring on a 24-yard touchdown run with three minutes remaining in the game. Leahy had installed the game-winning play in the BC offense one day before the game. Leahy and five members of the Sugar Bowl championship team would eventually be enshrined in the College Football Hall of Fame (HB O’Rourke, C Chet Gladchuk, E Gene Goodreault, FB Mike Holovak and G George Kerr). A crowd of 100,000 people welcomed the Sugar Bowl victors back to Boston’s South Station, but Leahy would leave Boston College for Notre Dame within a month of the game. 1941 — From a field of 80 candidates, Denny Myers was named Boston College’s new head football coach. 1942 — The Eagles were undefeated and ranked No. 1 in the land as they headed into the final game of the season against Holy Cross on November 28. The Crusaders pulled one of the biggest upsets in college football history that day, upending BC by a 55-12 score. Many BC players and fans were so bitterly disappointed that a planned “victory party” at Boston’s Coconut Grove restaurant was canceled. The Cocoanut Grove was destroyed by fire that night, and 492 people lost their lives. 1943 — Again playing on New Year’s Day, Boston College loses to Alabama in the Orange Bowl, 37-21. One bright point in the game for the Eagles was the play of Holovak, who scored all three BC touchdowns and averaged 15.8 yards every time he touched the football — an Orange Bowl record that stands to this day. 1943-1945 — A large number of Boston College players and coaches departed to serve their country in the U.S. armed forces during World War II. The teams fielded on campus found competition against service teams such as Melville PT and Squantum Naval Air Station. 1946 — Myers returned as head coach after the war and the Eagles undertook a national schedule that included LSU, Tennessee, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Michigan State and Penn State in following years. Two members of that September’s freshman class — linemen Art Donovan and Ernie Stautner — would one day be elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. The roster also includes lineman Ed King, who, after a brief pro football career, would later be elected Governor of Massachusetts. 1949 — On November 26, Boston College scored its most lopsided victory ever, 76-0, over annual rival Holy Cross. BC fullback/ kicker Ed Petela scored a record 34 points in the game — four touchdowns and 10 PATs. 1951 — Mike Holovak, who had played professional football with the Los Angeles Rams and Chicago Bears, returned to his alma mater as head coach. He later would be the head coach of the Boston Patriots and long-time general manager of the Houston Oilers. 1956 — After losing to Holy Cross, 7-0, on December 1, Boston College is told that football games will no longer be played at Fenway Park. The school considers dropping the sport.

1957 — On January 23, Boston College President Joseph R. N. Maxwell, S.J., announces the decision to build a new stadium on campus. Athletic Director William J. Flynn and former head coach Joe McKenney lead the successful $250,000 campaign to construct the new facility on the site of a filled-in reservoir on BC’s lower campus. On September 26, Alumni Stadium opened with a game against Navy that had been arranged with the assistance of then-U.S. Senator John F. Kennedy. The visiting Midshipmen spoiled the day, however, with a 46-6 victory before a standing-room-only crowd of 26,000-plus. The referee in the dedication game was the legendary Albie Booth.
1971 — Alumni Stadium is expanded to 32,000 seats, an artificial surface is installed and lights are added for night play.
1975 — The Eagles open the season with an ABC-TV “Monday Night Football” appearance against Notre Dame at Schaefer Stadium in Foxboro. A record 61,000 fans filled the facility to watch the Irish take a 17-3 victory.
1978 — The Eagles suffer their worst season in history, losing all 11 games, including a 28-24 loss to Temple in a game played in Tokyo, Japan, on December 10. 1981 — Former BC assistant Bicknell is hired as head coach. He opens the season with a 13-12 home victory over Texas A&M on September 19. Freshman Doug Flutie sees his first action — on one special teams play. Flutie would be named the team’s starting quarterback by Bicknell and QB coach Tom Coughlin prior to the Navy game on October 17.
2011 season review
1976 — BC upended seventh-ranked Texas, 14-13, in a thrilling season opener at Alumni Stadium on September 11. A key tackle by Kelly Elias on a Longhorn two-point conversion try with 4:38 remaining in the game proved the difference in this victory, the biggest for a BC team in years.

1974 — The Eagles, under Yukica and offensive backfield coach Jack Bicknell, are the hottest team in college football down the stretch, outscoring opponents by a 270-27 margin in the season’s final six games. FB Keith Barnette is the nation’s top scorer with 22 TDs on the season. However, the team’s 8-3 record does not attract any bowl invitations to Chestnut Hill.

BC FootBall timeline 1982 — The Eagles open the season with a smashing 38-16 victory over Texas A&M in College Station. Two weeks later, BC tied defending national champion Clemson 17-17 at “Death Valley,” and once again Boston College football was drawing national attention. After beating Holy Cross 35-10 in the final regular season game, the Eagles are invited to the 1982 Tangerine Bowl in Orlando to play Auburn. Fans watching that game saw two future Heisman Trophy winners: BC’s Flutie and the Tigers’ Bo Jackson. Auburn won the December 18 game, 33-26. 1983 — The Eagles finished the regular season with a 9-2 record, including the first ever win over Penn State (27-17 at Foxboro) and a last-minute 20- 13 victory over Alabama on a rainy November night in Foxboro that is remembered as the game “that the lights went out.” Fortunately, power crews restored electricity just as officials were considering stopping the game and BC went on to score on its final possession to win. The Lambert Trophy champions were matched up against Notre Dame in the Liberty Bowl on December 29 — a game that was played in frigid, icy conditions. Each team scored three touchdowns in that game, but BC missed all of its extra-point tries, while the Irish converted one of three to account for the heart-breaking 19-18 final score. 1984 — Perhaps one of the most storied seasons in Boston College football history, an early highlight was the Eagles’ stunning 3831 victory over Alabama in Birmingham before a national television audience on September 8. The Eagles scored on their final possession of the game to beat the Crimson Tide — an omen of rallies to come. On November 22 at the Orange Bowl, Flutie and Boston College Football went into the storybooks as No. 22 threw a 48-yard “Hail Mary” touchdown pass to WR Gerard Phelan on the game’s final play to give BC a memorable 47-45 victory over the Miami Hurricanes. A week later, Flutie completed one of his final college football goals by throwing a touchdown pass to his brother Darren, a freshman, in the final game of the regular season at Holy Cross on December 1. He then flew to New York City where he was presented with the Heisman Trophy later that night. 1985 — Boston College scored its first postseason victory since the 1941 Sugar Bowl with an impressive 45-28 victory over Houston in the Cotton Bowl on New Year’s Day. The Eagles were ranked No. 4 in the final college football poll and won the Lambert Trophy as Eastern Champions for the second consecutive year. 1985 — Appearing in the Kickoff Classic, the Eagles lost to high-powered Brigham Young, 28-14, in the college football curtainraiser, but NG Mike Ruth chased Cougar QBs all over the field en route to eventually winning the Outland Award as college football’s top lineman that season. 1986 — After thrashing Holy Cross by a 56-26 score in Worcester on November 22, the Eagles were invited to play Georgia in Tampa’s Hall of Fame Bowl on December 23. There, QB Shawn Halloran hit WR Kelvin Martin with a 5-yard scoring pass with just 32 seconds left in the game to give BC a 27-24 victory. Two months later, Holy Cross abruptly canceled the BC-HC rivalry that had begun in 1896. 1988 — A rebuilt Alumni Stadium with matching upper decks and state-of-the-art press facilities is dedicated in a nationally televised game against Southern Cal. On November 19, Boston College and Army made sports history by playing the first American college football game in Europe. The Eagles topped the Cadets 38-24 in that contest, played at Dublin’s Lansdowne Road Stadium.

1992 — BC scores three consecutive shutout victories (vs. Northwestern, Navy and Michigan State) on the way to an 8-2-1 regular season and a berth in the Hall of Fame Bowl against Tennessee. The Vols won the Sugar Bowl “rematch” by a 38-23 score. 1993 — The Eagles bounced back from losses in the first two games of the year to reel off eight consecutive victories and earn another postseason invitation. Highlighting this drive was a magnificent 41-39 victory at Notre Dame on November 20, when David Gordon kicked a 41-yard field goal with no time remaining to shock the No. 1-ranked Irish. The Eagles’ final 8-3 showing earned them a slot in the Carquest Bowl in Fort Lauderdale where they convincingly beat ACC representative Virginia, 31-13, on New Year’s Day.
1996 — Tom O’Brien was named head coach at Boston College on December 13. 1997 — O’Brien recorded his first victory as a head coach on September 13 as BC beat West Virginia, 31-24. It was the first time the Eagles had defeated the Mountaineers in Chestnut Hill since 1976.
1999 — Boston College engineered the third-best turnaround in major college football by finishing the regular season with an 83 record and ranked 22nd nationally. BC received an invitation to play in the Insight.com Bowl, its first postseason appearance since 1994.

1994 — Alumni Stadium was expanded to its current capacity of 44,500 and was completely refurbished. Unfortunately, as had happened on three previous occasions, the Eagles lost the dedication game, this time, 12-7, to Virginia Tech on September 17. BC made up for the loss, however, by scoring an impressive 30-11 victory over Notre Dame in Chestnut Hill on October 8 — the Eagles’ first win in their new lair. BC went on to cap the season with a Christmas Day appearance in the Aloha Bowl in Honolulu where the Eagle defense led the way to a 12-7 victory over Kansas State.

Green (16th, Cleveland) and OT Marc Colombo (29th, Chicago) are selected in the first round of the NFL Draft. 2002 — BC’s 51-25 win over Toledo in the Motor City Bowl, an unprecedented third consecutive bowl victory, sent the 2002 senior class out with 32 victories in four years (32-17), tied with the 1981-84 group for the most wins in a four year period in 60 years of Boston College football. One of the top highlights of the season occurred on November 2, when the Eagles marched into Notre Dame Stadium and defeated the previously undefeated, fourth-ranked and green-clad Fighting Irish, 14-7, to end ND’s dreams of a national championship. 2003 — On October 12, 2003, BC President William P. Leahy, SJ and Director of Athletics Gene DeFilippo hold a press conference to announce that Boston College would accept an offer to become the 12th member of the Atlantic Coast Conference. The 2003 Eagles notched impressive victories over Notre Dame, No. 25 Penn State and No. 12 Virginia Tech en route to winning their 40th game in five seasons, tying an all-time school record. On New Year’s Eve, the Eagles appeared in a school-record fifth consecutive bowl game at the Diamond Walnut San Francisco Bowl. Their 35-21 victory over Colorado State made the Eagles the first team in BC football history to win seven or more games for five consecutive seasons and the only team in college football to have won a bowl game the past four years in a row. Senior running back Derrick Knight became BC’s all-time rushing leader, finishing his career with 3,725 yards. 2004 – The Eagles rolled to another 9-3 season, winning a share of the BIG East Conference championship and missing a Fiesta Bowl bid only by a loss to Syracuse on the final day of the 2004 campaign. Senior QB Paul Peterson, who engineered a thrilling 2423 victory at Notre Dame with a last-minute 30-yard touchdown pass to Tony Gonzalez setting up the stunning victory. Peterson was injured two weeks later in a win against Temple, but the Utah native returned to the lineup to lead the Eagles to a 37-24 victory over future ACC rival North Carolina in the Continental Tire Bowl in Charlotte. 2005 – After season-opening victories at Brigham Young and Army, Boston College played its first-ever Atlantic Coast Conference game - a nationally-televised contest against Florida State on September 21. ESPN’s “Game Day” crew was on hand to broadcast from campus prior to the much-anticipated ACC match-up. The Eagles lost to Bobby Bowden’s powerful Seminoles 28-17 in their league debut, but introduced themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the ACC with a 16-13 overtime victory at Clemson a week later. BC finished with another impressive 9-3 record and went on to play Boise State in the Humanitarian Bowl where they handed the host Broncos a rare defeat -27-21 - on their home “Blue Turf.” 2006 – Another successful year for BC Football, as the team finished with a 10-3 record, including a pair of double-overtime victories over Clemson (34-33) and Brigham Young (30-23) on back-to-back September Saturdays. The big news of the year, however, came in December as Coach Tom O’Brien left Chestnut Hill to become head coach at ACC rival North Carolina State. Defensive coordinator Frank Spaziani took over leadership of the team for the Meineke Care Bowl against Navy in Charlotte and recorded his first head coaching victory as linebacker Jolann Dunbar recovered a Midshipman fumble late in the game and QB Matt Ryan led the Eagles back into scoring range where kicker Steve Aponavicius booted a 37-yard field goal to give BC a narrow 25-24 victory. In 2001 William Green rushed for 1,559 yards

2011 – For the first time in more than a decade, the Eagles slipped below .500 on the season and missed out on post-season play, but BC showed plenty of promise for the future by winning three ACC games – Maryland, North Carolina and Miami – down the home stretch. The season spotlight belonged to two-time All-America LB Luke Kuechly who made a “clean sweep” of national defensive honors, including ACC Defensive Player of the Year, the Bronko Nagurski Trophy, the Butkus Award, the Rotary Lombardi Award and the Lott Impact Trophy after leading all collegiate football players in tackles (191) and solo tackles (102) during the 2011 campaign. Kuechly entered the NFL Draft after his junior season and was selected by the Carolina Panthers in the first round.

The victory propelled BC to the No. 2 slot in the national rankings and helped them finish the regular season with a 10-2 mark, earning a spot in the ACC Championship game in Jacksonville vs. Virginia Tech. The Eagles lost to the Hokies, 30-16, in the title game, but bounded back to trim Michigan State, 24-21, in Orlando’s Citrus Bowl, giving the team an 11-victory season, the most wins at Chestnut Hill since the legendary Sugar Bowl Champions of 1940.

Frank Leahy came to Boston College in 1939, succeeding the immortal Gil Dobie, and immediately declared, “I did not come to BC to fail.” Nor did the 29-year old protégé of Knute Rockne, who had tutored Fordham’s mighty Seven Blocks of Granite. His team was ranked 11th nationally when it faced Clemson in the Cotton Bowl — the first New England team to participate in a bowl game in 20 years. The Eagles took a 3-0 lead on Alex Lukachik’s 36-yard field goal, but Clemson roared right back on its next possession, and Charley Timmons ran for a score. That was it for the day. Banks McFadden knocked down three Charley O’Rourke passes in the end zone in the fourth quarter, and BC drove to the Clemson 8-yard line late in the game but failed to score.
In Leahy’s second year, the Eagles went unbeaten in 11 games and finished with their highest national ranking ever, thanks to a gritty come-from-behind 19-13 win over Tennessee in the Sugar Bowl. The Volunteers, who had not lost a regular season game in three years, led 7-0 at the half, but Joe Zabliski’s recovery of a blocked punt set up Harry Connolly’s game-tying touchdown and extra point in the third quarter. Tennessee came back to take a 13-7 lead, but Mike Holovak ended a 60-yard drive when he scored BC’s second touchdown. However, Leahy elected to run Holovak for the extra point which was stopped. The score remained tied, 13-13. Don Currivan blocked a Tennessee field goal in the fourth quarter and started BC on its winning drive.

December 18, 1982 • Orlando, Fla. Auburn 33, Boston College 26
This contest was a wild affair, as Boston College took a 14-0 lead on two of Mike Holovak’s three touchdowns on the day. Holovak’s first touchdown came on a 65-yard run and his second on a 35-yard sweep. After Alabama fought back and took a 19-14 lead, Holovak scored his third touchdown of the day on a two-yard plunge. Harry Connolly’s extra-point gave the Eagles a 21-19 lead. By this time, injuries had begun to pile up for BC (Mario Gianelli, one of the team’s best linemen, broke his toe getting dressed for the game and never played), and Alabama took the lead for good on a field goal. The Tide soon took a 28-21 advantage and the Eagles missed their tying chance when they were unable to score from the 8-yard line in the fourth quarter.
Eagle quarterback Doug Flutie put on a dazzling performance, completing 22-of-38 passes for 299 yards and two touchdowns (he also scored on a 5-yard run and accounted for a pair of twopoint-conversions), but the Eagles’ furious second-half rally fell just short of victory. The Eagles scored on the first drive of the game and then played tremendous defense, stopping the nationally ranked Auburn Tigers twice on drives inside their own 5-yard line without surrendering a touchdown. The Tigers used their blinding outside speed to score three second-quarter touchdowns and increased their lead to 33-10 by the end of the third.

January 1, 1985 • Dallas, Texas Boston College 45, Houston 28
Despite bitter 11-degree temperatures, Doug Flutie shined once again in postseason action, completing 16 of 37 passes for 287 yards and three touchdowns. The Fighting Irish, however, also tallied three TDs and emerged a one-point victor. Scott Gieselman grabbed a 3-yard touchdown flip from Flutie midway through the third quarter, but the contest was a deadlocked defensive struggle for the remainder of the evening. With 1:08 left on a fourth-down situation on Notre Dame’s 35, Flutie’s toss intended for Joe Giaquinto up the middle fell incomplete. Tailback Troy Stradford was the Eagles leading ground gainer with 51 yards on 16 carries. Flutie, however, was named the game’s Most Valuable Player for his aerial efforts.
Four months to the day after the memorable 1984 season began, it ended with the Eagles’ first postseason Bowl victory in 44 years. Before 56,522 (67,381 paid) at the frigid Cotton Bowl (32 windy, drizzly degrees) and another CBS-TV national audience, Heisman Trophy winner Doug Flutie (13 for 37, 180 yards) threw two scoring passes in the first quarter to boost BC to a 17-7 lead. Kelvin Martin’s 63-yard touchdown grab to open the scoring was the longest aerial connection of the year for the Eagles. Flutie would add his Cotton Bowl-record third touchdown pass later in the contest. Houston trimmed two touchdowns off BC’s 31-14 halftime lead before the Eagle ground game asserted itself.

January 1, 1993 • Tampa, Fla. Tennessee 38, Boston College 23
Eagle quarterback Shawn Halloran connected with wide receiver Kelvin Martin on a 5-yard touchdown pass with just 32 seconds remaining in the game to give Boston College a thrilling 27-24 victory over the Georgia Bulldogs in the first Hall of Fame Bowl game in Tampa, FL. The perfectly timed touchdown toss capped a sparkling 76yard drive that began with just 2:38 left on the clock and Georgia holding a 24-20 edge. The Eagles started the game in high gear, with Halloran picking apart the Bulldogs’ defense for 22 completions in his first 31 attempts — good for 242 yards, a touchdown and a 20-7 lead at intermission. Georgia roared back in the second half, however, outscoring the Eagles 17-0 until BC’s magical final drive.
The Eagles’ first bowl appearance in six years fell short of being a success as a 17-point scoring blitz by Tennessee in the third quarter broke open a close game and gave the speedy Volunteers a lead that could not be matched. BC had some outstanding performances from tight end Pete Mitchell, who set a Hall of Fame Bowl receiving record with nine catches for 100 yards (and a pair of scores), and from quarterback Glenn Foley, who clicked on 23-of-46 passes for 268 yards and threw a pair of two-point conversions in addition to the two TD passes to Mitchell. BC rallied in the final quarter with Foley’s 17-yard TD pass to Mitchell and Darnell Campbell’s 7-yard scoring dash, each of which was followed by a successful two-point conversion play, but the clock ran out on BC’s strong closing effort.

Glenn Foley put on another masterful passing show in leading the Eagles to the Carquest Bowl championship before a CBS national television audience. The Virginia Cavaliers gave BC an early scare, picking off Foley’s second pass of the game and converting it into a touchdown and a 7-0 advantage just 1:05 into the game. But Foley would make few mistakes in the ensuing 58 minutes and 55 seconds of play. In this, his final collegiate appearance, Foley would go on to set eight Blockbuster/Carquest Bowl records, passing for 391 yards and three touchdowns and earning himself the game’s Most Valuable Player award. Overall, the Eagle offense was splendid. When the game ended, BC had gained a whopping 557 yards — nearly seven yards per play.
In a spectacular defensive effort, the Eagles stopped eighthranked Kansas State cold — completely erasing the Wildcats’ ground attack (minus 61 yards on the day) and sacking quarterback Chad May eight times. The Kansas State offense could not manage a touchdown in the game; the Wildcats’ only points came on a blocked punt, which was recovered in the end zone. Kansas State scored on the blocked punt on the last play of the first quarter, and both defenses dueled in front of an ABC-TV national audience before the Eagles were able to muster another long drive in the fourth period that culminated in David Gordon’s 35-yard field goal with 1:18 left. The key play of that successful late drive was a 46-yard pass from Mark Hartsell to wide receiver Kenyatta Watson.

Colorado began the game with a 65-yard drive that resulted in the first touchdown. The Eagles returned the favor with a drive of their own, but John Matich missed a field goal and Colorado took over again. The Buffaloes charged down the field, scoring another touchdown. The Buffaloes would score again before the first quarter ended. The Eagles showed they would not give up when George White intercepted a pass from CU quarterback Mike Moschetti and returned it 78 yards for the Eagles’ first touchdown of the game. With 7:22 left in the first half, the Eagles trailed by a score of 35-7. The half came to a close, however, with Colorado ahead 45-7. The third quarter offered much the same, with Tim Hasselbeck and St. Pierre combining to complete only nine of 28 passes. By the end of the day, Colorado took a convincing 62-28 win back to Boulder.
Boston College put on a second-half offensive explosion to defeat Arizona State by a 31-17 score in the 2000 Jeep Aloha Bowl. Though Arizona State jumped on the board first, BC was quick to respond with 10 straight points for a 10-7 lead after one quarter. Senior running back Cedric Washington marched into the end zone just 1:07 after the ASU score on a 10-yard run. Leading 24-10 to start the fourth quarter, senior linebacker Ryan Burch intercepted a pass attempt by Griffin Goodman. Washington took over, and after four rushes that gained 28 yards, he ran the final 10 yards into the end zone for the Eagles’ final score of the day and a 31-10 lead. ASU added a late score. Boston College accumulated 180 yards on the ground, including a final 100-yard rushing game (109 yards) for Washington.

Boston College snapped its 22-game losing streak to ranked teams with a thrilling 20-16 victory over No. 16 Georgia in the 2001 Music City Bowl. Consensus All-America tailback William Green rushed for 149 yards, including a seven-yard, game-winning touchdown with 4:43 remaining in the game, to lead the Eagles to consecutive wins in a postseason bowl game. Although the Eagles were outgained, 410 yards to 306 yards, the team did benefit from two UGA interceptions, two UGA fumbles and two first downs resulting from UGA penalties. Brian St. Pierre finished with 109 yards and one touchdown on nine completions. Green led all rushers with 149 yards and one touchdown, rushing for his 10th 100-yard game of the season. Fred Gibson was the game’s leading receiver with 109 yards on six receptions.
Boston College won a bowl game for an unprecedented third year in a row as the Eagles thumped Toledo, 51-25, in the Motor City Bowl in Detroit. Senior quarterback Brian St. Pierre saved his best for last, completing 25-of-35 passes for a career-high 342 yards and three touchdowns as the Eagles capped one of the most successful seasons in their football history. The game was never close as the Eagles scored touchdowns on their first six possessions. BC took the opening kickoff on its own 24 and marched 76 yards in 10 plays behind the rushing of Derrick Knight, who finished the day with 19 carries for 65 yards and one touchdown. After Toledo pulled to within 14-3, the Eagles mounted another impressive drive, culminating in a St. Pierre touchdown pass to another talented sophomore wide receiver, a 40-yarder to Joel Hazard that made the score 21-3. The Rockets could get no closer the rest of the day.

Boston College celebrated New Year’s Eve in the City by the Bay by winning its fourth consecutive bowl game, a 35-21 victory over Colorado State in the Diamond Walnut San Francisco Bowl. The Eagles scored early and often, taking a commanding 210 first-quarter lead. Will Blackmon started the game on a high note, returning the opening kickoff to the Colorado State 41. Alltime rushing leader Derrick Knight dominated the opening drive and scored from the five to give the Eagles a 7-0 lead with 12:14 left. A 40-yard Van Pelt scoring pass with seven minutes remaining in the third trimmed BC’s lead to 21-14, but a Stancil interception led to a Peterson-to-Lester 19-yard TD pass to give the Eagles some breathing room and a 28-14 lead. After an unsuccessful fourth down play for Colorado State, Knight iced the win, marching 28 yards to the end zone.
In his first game back from a broken finger, senior quarterback Paul Peterson threw for 236 yards as the Eagles won a fifth straight bowl game, beating North Carolina 37-24 in the Continental Tire Bowl. Redshirt freshman Andre Callender carried the ball 26 times for 174 yards and a touchdown in a balanced offensive effort. UNC opened the third with a Connor Barth field goal to take a 24-21 lead. As the third quarter came to an end, however, Callender gained 38 yards to the UNC 10, setting up a 1-yard touchdown plunge three plays later that gave BC a 27-24 lead. The Eagle defense forced a punt on UNC’s next drive and BC took over with good field position. On fourth down at the UNC 21, Ohliger faked the field goal and ran for the score, avoiding wouldbe Tar Heel tacklers on the way and stunning the crowd as the Eagles took a 34-24 lead. BC’s final points came when William Troost hit an 18-yard field goal with 4:09 left.

Ryan Glasper intercepted a Jared Zabransky pass in the end zone with 37 seconds left to lift Boston College past Boise State 27-21 in the 2005 MPC Computers Bowl. Playing before a hostile crowd and on the blue turf of homestanding Boise State, the Eagles stunned the Broncos by scoring the first 27 points of the game as quarterback Matt Ryan connected on three touchdown passes, including two to Tony Gonzalez in the first half. Ryan completed 19-of-36 passes for 256 yards, 144 of them going to senior Will Blackmon. Ryan got the Eagles on the board 3:29 into the first half when he found Gonzalez for a 24-yard touchdown pass. Following a Ryan Ohliger 30-yard field goal, BC linebacker Jolonn Dunbar caused a fumble that was picked up by Ray Henderson and taken to the Broncos 13 yard-line. Ryan then hooked up with Gonzalez on a 13-yard strike to give the Eagles a 17-0 lead.
Interim Head Coach Frank Spaziani etched his name into the BC record books as the only undefeated coach in school history when he led the Eagles to a 25-24, come-from-behind victory over Navy in the Meineke Car Care Bowl. Spaziani was given the interim title after Tom O’Brien departed for N.C. State and he led the Eagles through their bowl game preparations. Junior quarterback Matt Ryan was named the game’s most valuable player after he completed 20-of-29 passes for 242 yards and one touchdown. With Navy trying to kill the clock with less than two minutes remaining, Dunbar recovered a Reggie Campbell fumble at the Midshipmen 36. Ryan completed a 15-yard pass to Purvis to get the Eagles within field goal range. Kicker Steve Aponavicius connected from 37 yards as time expired and, almost miraculously, the Eagles had won yet another bowl game.

Quarterback Matt Ryan ended a brilliant career in style by leading the Eagles to an 11th victory for only the second time in school history as BC defeated Michigan State, 24-21, in the Champs Sports Bowl in Orlando. Ryan completed 22-of-47 passes for 249 yards and three touchdowns as the Eagles kept the nation’s longest bowl game winning streak alive with their eighth straight bowl win. The win also propelled the team to a No. 10 finish in the final AP college football poll of the season, BC’s first top 10 finish since the 1984 season. Michigan State had an opportunity to pull the upset, taking over with 2:37 left in the game. But on first down, BC’s Paul Anderson intercepted a Hoyer pass and returned it to the MSU 29, allowing the Eagles to run out the clock.
Vanderbilt won a bowl game for the fi rst time in exactly 53 years when Bryant Hahnfeldt kicked a 45-yard field goal with 3:26 left to beat Boston College 16-14 in the Music City Bowl. Vanderbilt hadn’t even played in a bowl since 1982 and the win gave the Commodores (7-6) their fi rst winning season since then, too. Boston College (9-5) snapped the nation’s longest bowl winning streak after eight straight games in its 10th consecutive bowl appearance. The Eagles also missed a chance at fi nishing with at least 10 wins for a third straight season.

Matt Barkley threw touchdown passes to Stanley Havili on Southern California’s first two possessions and added a touchdown run in the fourth quarter to help the Trojans beat Boston College 24-13 in the Emerald Bowl. Damian Williams caught 12 passes for 189 yards, setting up Havili’s second score and Barkley’s 1-yard sneak that gave USC a 24-13 lead with 11:53 remaining. The Eagles stayed close with the Trojans for most of the game before Dave Shinskie threw an interception to Shareece Wright early in the fourth quarter. On the next play, Barkley connected on a 48-yard pass to Williams. Barkley scored on the next play.
Rishard Matthews caught a touchdown pass and returned a punt for another score, and No. 13 Nevada used its best defensive game of the season to beat Boston College 20-13. Colin Kaepernick threw for 192 yards and a touchdown for the Wolf Pack (13-1), who snapped a four-game bowl losing streak by tying a school record for wins in a season, set when it played in what used to be Division I-AA. The win was sealed by Khalid Wooten’s interception on the final drive of the game for the Eagles (7-6). The game matched BC’s top-ranked rushing defense against Nevada’s high-powered pistol attack that was third in the nation in rushing. The defense won that battle, holding the Wolf Pack to a season-low 114 yards on the ground, including just 22 for Kaepernick. Freshman Chase Rettig completed 14 of 34 passes for 121 yards and two interceptions. Boston College played without leading rusher Montel Harris, who got hurt in pre-game warmups.

Doug Flutie
Mike Ruth
68
Never again will a Boston College football player wear the number 22 or 68. Those two retired numbers belonged to quarterback Doug Flutie and nose tackle Mike Ruth, respectively. Flutie won the 1984 Heisman Trophy, given annually by the Downtown Athletic Club of New York to the outstanding college football player in the nation, and the Walter Camp Award, given by the Walter Camp Football Foun-dation of New Haven, Conn., to the nation’s most outstanding player. Ruth was the winner of the 1985 Outland Trophy, given to the outstanding interior lineman in the nation by the Football Writers Association of America. These two numbers were retired in a ceremony on Oct. 8, 1998, as the Eagles played Virginia Tech.
s
even other former Boston College football players have received the honor of having their jerseys retired — Art Donovan, Bill Flynn, Gene Goodreault, Mike Holovak, Charles O’Rourke, Tony Thurman and Louis Urban. Holovak, O’Rourke, Thurman and Urban were honored in ceremonies on September 12, 1998, as the Eagles beat Rutgers. A four-year letterwinner at end and team captain in 1923, Urban played on Boston College teams that compiled an overall record of 25-7, including the 1920 team that went 8-0 and gave the school its first “Eastern Championship.” He was a consensus first-team all-America selection in that season. O’Rourke’s Boston College teams compiled a cumulative record of 26-3-2. “Chuckin’ Charlie” helped lead the Eagles to an 11-0 record in 1940, capped by the Sugar Bowl championship and the claim of a national championship. He was inducted into the National Football Foundation and College Football Hall of Fame in 1972. Holovak’s Boston College teams finished 26-5 and he is known as one of the top running backs in school history. He scored all three Eagle touchdowns in the 1943 Orange Bowl and averaged 15.8 yards per carry in that contest against Alabama. A consensus first-team all-American in 1942, he was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1985. Thurman was a consensus first team all-America pick in 1984 as a defensive back and still holds the school career records for interceptions in a game (3), season (12) and career (25).
148
Flynn, who was honored in ceremonies at 1999’s Miami game, was associated with Boston College athletics for nearly seven decades as a student-athlete, faculty member, coach and director of athletics. He played football at Boston College from 1936-38, serving as team captain in ’38. He also played hockey and became the first Boston College player to score 20 goals in a season. Flynn returned to the University in 1945 as a mathematics teacher and assistant football coach and seven years later became the Alumni Association executive secretary. Flynn was the director of athletics for the Eagles from 1957 to 1990 and during his tenure, Boston College expanded its varsity sports programs and constructed most of its major athletic facilities. Donovan, who was honored at 1999’s Pittsburgh game, was a four-year letterman for the Eagles from 1946-49 and was an outstanding lineman for his teams that went a combined 20-13-3. In the professional ranks, he played on two world championship teams in 12 seasons as a perennial all-pro selection at defensive tackle for the Baltimore Colts. He was inducted into the Professional Football Hall of Fame in 1968. Goodreault, who was honored at 2001’s Pittsburgh game at Alumni Stadium, was a member of the Boston College football team that won the 1941 Sugar Bowl. He lettered for the Eagles from 1938 to 1940 as an end and was a consensus first-team allAmerica pick in 1940, including a spot on the Walter Camp AllAmerica team.

Flutie always believed that it was possible to win. And in those rare instances when it didn’t happen, it was only because he had run out of time — not out of opportunity. The best thing about watching Flutie in a game was wondering what astounding feat he would perform that day. Those feats weren’t always game-winning plays, but often a series of individual plays within a game that, when totaled, made victory possible. No obstacle on the field ever seemed too great to overcome. While gifted with great mobility and an uncanny talent to “photograph” an opposing defense and then pick it apart at his whim, perhaps his greatest talent was an innate sense of how to win — an asset that never was coached into him. When he wasn’t rolling up prodigious amounts of passing yards, Flutie tantalized his foes with his scrambling and finished his career with more than 700 rushing yards. Then, there was the size factor — “Little Doug” playing in a land of giants. Of course, “Little Doug” was just as tall as the average American male, about 5-10. Perception soon became reality and a “little” man, real or imagined, wasn’t supposed to accomplish what he did on a football field. As a sophomore, he engineered a memorable tie against defending national champion Clemson. After the nationally televised game, CBS commentator Pat Haden, himself a smallish quarterback who succeeded at USC, sought him out and told him, “Don’t ever let anyone tell you that you are too small to play this game.” Yet, he also was a man of the people. He went to class with other students; he ate on the same meal plan they used; he played pick-up basketball games in the gym with them; and he never sought an exalted place in either his campus or personal life.
He thrived in his family setting away from the adulation, glitz and glitter of his fame. One of the happiest moments of a momentous senior year was playing with his younger brother Darren, then a freshman wide receiver. Oddly enough, Flutie eschewed scholarship offers from Holy Cross and Syracuse, who wanted to make him a defensive back despite his fine performances at quarterback for Natick High School, in Boston’s Metro-west suburbs. But Boston College got him with an assurance by new head coach Jack Bicknell that he would be given a full shot. In 1983, he was key in the Eagles’ upset victory over Alabama and another last-second win against Temple. His team lost to Notre Dame in the Liberty Bowl, but he was named game MVP. All of that simply set the table for his amazing senior season in 1984. He threw six touchdown passes in a 52-20 romp over North Carolina; got four in an opening-game victory over Western Carolina; and three each against Rutgers, Army and Holy Cross; and of course, his fabled, last-play touchdown pass to Gerard Phelan to beat Miami stood above all else. In 1984, Doug Flutie became the first player in Boston College history to win college football’s grandest individual award — the Heisman Trophy. It capped an unbelievable 9-2 season that included the astounding victory over Miami, a victory over Houston in the Cotton Bowl and a No. 5 national ranking. He was the single-most exciting and resourceful player in college football that season. In addition to being named the starting quarterback on every major 1984 all-America team and winning the Heisman, he also won the Maxwell Award, given to the nation’s outstanding college football player; the Davey O’Brien National Quarterback Award; and numerous player of the year awards. As icing on the cake, Flutie headlined the 2007 College Football Hall of Fame class. Flutie was selected in his first year of eligibility and was inducted at the 50th Annual Awards Dinner at the Waldorf-Astoria in New York City. He was officially enshrined at the Hall in South Bend, Ind., during ceremonies in the summer of 2008.

oug Flutie is the quintessential football performer. Between the 1981 and 1984 college football seasons, he produced a major college career record of 11,054 yards of total offense (10,579 of them from passing, another national career record). He first appeared on the collegiate scene in the fall of 1981 starting in the fourth game of his freshman year in an alreadylost game at Penn State. He raked Joe Paterno’s defense for 135 passing yards and a touchdown and won the starting job with that performance. He went on to post a 30-11-1 overall record as a starter while also leading BC to three postseason bowls, the school’s first postseason play in 40 years. He was the game MVP of the Tangerine Bowl in his sophomore year against Auburn and the Liberty Bowl in his junior year vs. Notre Dame. Flutie’s last-chance, game-winning drives were the stuff of Hollywood screenwriters. As long as there was time on the clock,

MIKE RUTH
T
hough his team had a losing record, Ruth was honored in 1985, the only time a player from a non-winning team has been recognized. At 6-1 and 265 pounds, he not only was the team’s strongest player — he had a record 560-pound bench press as a junior — but he also was the quickest lineman. He mauled the offensive linemen who tried to block him, often tossing them aside like rag dolls; or he fooled them with his catlike quickness that helped him elude double teams by centers and guards until it was almost monotonous to watch. The combination of his strength and quickness helped him accumulate a couple dozen sacks and nearly 300 tackles during his career. Injuries once more dogged him as a senior but not enough that he didn’t excel on a team that won only four of 12 games. Ruth had built a tremendous reputation during his junior season and really secured the Outland Trophy in the 1985 season’s
RUTH’S BC CAREER Mike Ruth is the only Boston College player to win the Outland Trophy, presented to the nation’s best interior offensive or defensive lineman. first game, the Kickoff Classic against Brigham Young University at Giants Stadium in New Jersey. He relentlessly harassed BYU’s quarterbacks the entire game, convincing the trophy’s voters that he still was the country’s best interior lineman. His play for the rest of the season did nothing to diminish that impression. Ruth showed as a freshman during the 1982 season that he would be special when, playing a backup role, he accumulated 36 tackles and three quarterback sacks. Though dogged by a season-long ankle injury as a sophomore in 1983, he more than doubled his tackles to 80 and had 7.5 sacks. In 1984, as the key to the Eagles defensive strength, Ruth had 102 tackles, 76 of them solo. He had 6.5 sacks, but also was

credited with 20 quarterback pressures and seven other minusyard plays. In the 1984 game against Holy Cross, he pressured the Crusader quarterback into throwing five interceptions. Away from the field, he was just as unique. For most of his time at BC, he seriously considered a vocation to the priesthood. He was a very value-oriented person who practiced what he preached. Often, the night before a game, the team would watch a movie he found objectionable and he simply sat outside the meeting room where it was being shown, and studied. When his teammates emerged, he rejoined them for the team’s late-night snack and everything was very comfortable for all concerned. His mother was a victim of severe arthritis, so bad that at times she could not walk down the aisle in his family’s parish church outside Philadelphia. No matter. Mike simply picked her up in his massive arms and carried her to her pew; and when it came time for her to receive Holy Communion, he carried her to the altar and back again. He was team captain in 1985, his Outland Trophy year, but his leadership, even in a losing season, remained true to his personality. He told everyone before that season that he was not a holler guy, that his leadership would be by example. He never wavered and played as intensely as he had the previous seasons. Ruth came to BC from Norristown, Pa., where he graduated from Methacton High School. He was a third-team all-state pick and was the team captain. After his Boston College career, Ruth was a second-round draft pick (42nd pick overall) of the New England Patriots and played for the team in 1986-87.

Boston College

oston College was founded in 1863 by the Society of Jesus to serve the sons of Boston's Irish immigrants. It was the first institution of higher education to be founded in the city of Boston. Today, it is one of the foremost universities in the nation, with a coeducational enrollment of nearly 14,700 undergraduate and graduate students from all 50 states and more than 80 countries. Boston College has grown not just in size, but also in stature and diversity. Today, it is ranked 31st among national universities by US News & World Report. Its Graduate School of Social Work is listed among the nation's top 10, also by US News, while the graduate programs of its Lynch School of Education are among the top 20 and its Connell School of Nursing and Law School among the top 30. In addition, the Carroll School of Management is ranked ninth in Bloomberg/BusinessWeek's “Top Undergraduate Business Programs 2012.” Boston College is among the nation’s most selective universities, with approximately 34,000 applications received for its 2,250-member Class of 2016, and is numbered among the top American private research universities. After more than a century of growth and evolution, Boston College holds fast to the ideals that inspired its Jesuit founders. The University today remains focused on its mission of helping students to develop their minds and talents while providing them with the motivation and compassion to use those talents in the service of others. “Deeply rooted in its Catholic and Jesuit origins, Boston College offers an education that is distinctive in spirit and content, that is doubly rich with the best of human thought and with the profound insights of faith,” writes Reverend William P. Leahy, SJ, who assumed the presidency of Boston College in 1996. “We believe that Boston College provides a transforming experience for young men and women.” A continued expression of this philosophy, based on the Jesuit principle of cura personalis, or care for the individual, is the faculty's dedication to teaching. BC faculty members have been hon192
ored for their teaching by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Education, while the University's overall commitment to teaching has been ranked among the nation’s top 20, also by US News & World Report. A Boston College education focuses not only on intellectual development, but also on personal, spiritual and physical development. Students are asked to use their abilities, education and acquired skills to help others in need, whether in Boston or Belize. For example, each year, BC undergraduates give some 550,000 hours of community service in the Boston area, while more than 650 students trade vacation for service during Spring Break. Nearly 2,000 students take part in retreats and spiritual formation activities annually. Today, the Boston College motto “ever to excel” also extends to a broad array of extracurricular activities and opportunities ranging from sports to the arts. Athletics is integral to the University's focus on the development of the whole person in mind, body and soul. BC offers 31 men’s and women’s varsity sports — all of which compete at the NCAA Division I level — and perennially has one of the highest student-athlete graduation rates in Division IA. BC offers a wide variety of resources that enrich intellectual and cultural life. Among these are the Jesuit Institute; Center for Ignatian Spirituality; Roche Center for Catholic Education; Church in the 21st Century Center; Boisi Center for Religion and American Public Life; Center for Human Rights and International Justice; Center for Christian-Jewish Learning; Winston Center for Leadership and Ethics; Center on Wealth and Philanthropy; Center for Retirement Research; Sloan Center on Aging and Work; Center for the Study of Testing, Evaluation and Educational Policy; TIMSS and PIRLS International Study Center; Center for International Higher Education; Burns Library of Rare Books and Special Collections; Robsham Theater Arts Center; McMullen Museum of Art; Center for Child, Family and Community Partnerships; Center for Corporate Citizenship; Center for Work and Family; Center for Irish Programs; and Weston Observatory.

among those universities with the highest NCAA graduation rates. Following a comprehensive assessment and planning effort by the Boston College community, in 2007 the University announced a 10-year Strategic Plan that will build on Boston College’s strengths and accomplishments of the past and will focus additional resources on undergraduate liberal arts education and formation, as well as integrated science research and teaching. The University also intends to increasingly apply the strengths of its professional schools to resolving critical societal issues, and foster even more international links. In addition, Boston College intends to remain faithful to its Jesuit, Catholic heritage and to become the leading Catholic university and theological center in the world.

illiam P. Leahy, S.J., became the 25th president of Boston College on July 31, 1996. Born in Omaha, he grew up on his family’s farm near Imogene, Iowa. After one year of college at Creighton University, he entered the Wisconsin Province of the Society of Jesus in 1967. He received a bachelor's degree in philosophy and a master's degree in United States history from Saint Louis University in 1972 and 1975, respectively. Between 1975 and 1979, he studied theology at the Jesuit School of Theology in Berkeley, California, earning a master's degree in divinity and a master’s degree in sacred theology while there. Ordained a priest in 1978, he completed doctoral studies in United States history at Stanford University in 1985. Father Leahy joined the department of history at Marquette University in 1985 and became a tenured associate professor there six years later. In July 1991, he was named executive vice president at Marquette, where he served until being named president of Boston College in 1996. During his years at Boston College, Father Leahy has presided over an institution that has become one of the nation’s best and most selective national universities. Since 1996, BC’s endowment, sponsored research grants and student financial aid have more than doubled, and the percentage of student applicants accepted has fallen from 41 percent to 27 percent, while SAT scores have risen by more than 160 points. In addition, more than 100 fulltime faculty members have been added, minority student enrollment in undergraduate programs has climbed from 18 percent to 28 percent and annual cash gifts to the University have increased from $24 million to $100 million. During his presidency, undergraduate applications to Boston College have grown from 16,500 to more than 34,000, making BC one of the 10 most — applied to private universities in the United States. Currently, the University enrolls students from all 50 states and 80 countries, and its undergraduates have earned more than 300 prestigious fellowships, including two Rhodes Scholarships. Student-athletes at BC succeed in balancing the demands of academics and athletics, and BC consistently ranks

ince Gene DeFilippo became Director of Athletics in September 1997, he has led the BC athletics program to an unprecedented period of innovation, growth, fundraising, athletic and academic success. His stated goal of keeping the student-athlete at the heart of the program has produced undeniable results. He also led the program through one of the most significant periods in its history as it transitioned to full membership in the Atlantic Coast Conference. Under DeFilippo’s leadership, Boston College student-athletes’ achievements in the classroom have become an immense source of pride for the University and its supporters. Boston College, along with Duke University, tied for second in the nation for overall Graduation Success Rate (GSR) in all sports among FBS (Football Bowl Subdivision) schools, according to data released by the NCAA last October. The 97 percent that both schools registered was second only to Notre Dame’s 99 percent. In addition, 21 BC sports teams received a perfect GSR score of 100, the most teams with a perfect score of any FBS athletics program in the country. This marked the third consecutive year the Eagles recorded the most perfect scores among their FBS counterparts. In addition, the football team’s score of 93 was one of only six FBS programs in the country to receive a score of 90 or better. Last year, 331 BC student-athletes maintained a grade point average of 3.0 or better, earning the Athletic Director’s Award for Academic Achievement. BC’s graduation rate for all student-athletes has consistently ranked in the nation’s top ten. “Boston College is, above all, an academic institution,” DeFilippo said. “We want to field competitive sports teams, and we want to win, which our teams do. But when we recruit student-athletes, we tell them they have an opportunity to receive a degree from one of the greatest universities in the country, and our mission is to ensure that they are successful. We are extremely proud of our student-athletes’ accomplishments in the classroom.” Outside of their academic and athletic endeavors, BC studentathletes are perhaps best known for their devotion to community, as they spend numerous hours helping those less fortunate. In 2010, the BC Student-Athlete Advisory Committee was awarded the National SAAC Award of Excellence in recognition of the community service endeavors of Eagle student-athletes.
Boston College Director of Athletics Gene DeFilippo
DeFilippo has undertaken an impressive overhaul of BC’s athletics facilities that includes new football practice facilities, a total renovation of Conte Forum, including a new sound system, floor and video boards, new soccer, field hockey and lacrosse stadiums on the Newton campus, and an air-inflated bubble to cover the Alumni Stadium turf to provide an indoor practice facility for all sports during the winter months. Most recently, a new AstroTurf surface and brick work have been added to Alumni Stadium and the Conte Forum weight room and equipment room have been totally renovated. DeFilippo was instrumental in raising money to build the privately funded $27 million, 72,000-square-foot Yawkey Athletics Center, which houses the football program, the Office of Learning Resources for Student-Athletes, and a large function area for general University use. After football moved into the Yawkey Center, BC undertook a multi-million dollar renovation Conte Forum to provide additional locker room and office space for many of BC’s 31 varsity sports.

teams (1999-2010), capturing 103 victories during that streak. BC won an amazing 88 games in the 2000s (2000-09, including bowls), tying Auburn and Southern California for 11th among all teams in college football. DeFilippo also has overseen recordbreaking success in men’s and women’s basketball and men’s and women’s soccer. From 1993-97, DeFilippo served as director of athletics at Villanova University. He served as Associate Director of Athletics at the University of Kentucky from 1987-93, Director of Athletics at the University of South Carolina-Spartanburg from 1984-87 and Director of Administrative Services at Vanderbilt University from 1983-84. His coaching experience includes three years as offensive backfield coach at Vanderbilt (1980-82), which included the 1982 Hall of Fame Bowl. From 1975-79, he was offensive coordinator at Youngstown State University, during which time the team won two consecutive Mid-Continent Conference championships, 1978-79. In 1973-74, he was graduate assistant football coach for the University of Tennessee, coaching in the 1973 Gator Bowl and 1974 Liberty Bowl. A 1973 graduate of Springfield College with a Bachelor of Science degree, DeFilippo earned three varsity letters as a quarterback in football during his undergraduate career. He received a master’s degree in educational administration from the University of Tennessee in 1974. He was named the 2010 recipient of the New England Prep School Athletic Council (NEPSAC) Martin Williams Souders Award, presented annually to a graduate of a New England independent school who made a distinguished record in sports and who since made a distinguished record in life through his/her ideals, leaderships and accomplishments. Past recipients have included George H.W. Bush, Sargent Shriver, Michael Erizione, Dee Rowe, Bill Cleary, and former BC Athletics Director Bill Flynn. DeFilippo and his wife, Anne, are the parents of three children — Christine Eldred (married to Matt Eldred), John and Mary and have one granddaughter, Katherine Eldred.

DeFilippo renamed the Athletics Department’s fundraising arm (formerly Blue Chips) in honor of longtime Athletics Director Bill Flynn. Thanks to the support of more than 4,500 donors, Boston College Athletics completed a highly successful fundraising campaign for the 2011-12 fiscal year. With more than $20 million cash contributed from alumni, parents and friends, the department experienced its most successful cash year ever for varsity athletics when taking into account past years’ totals that included significant capital payments for the Yawkey Center. Commitments — often a indicator of future cash payments — were also strong with a varsity athletics record of more than $25 million pledged. This includes the largest commitment ever made in support of a varsity athletics team from an alumnus with the announcement of a $5 million gift to endow the head men’s ice hockey coaching position. Additionally, the baseball program received the largest ever one-time commitment from an alumnus with a $2.5 million gift. The aforementioned gifts were among five commitments at the $1 million+ level. They also contributed to the 43 commitments of $100,000 or more. In the last two years, BC Athletics has received 87 commitments of $100,000 or more — a 45 percent increase over the prior two-year total. Anne and Gene DeFilippo cemented their commitment to Boston College by announcing their pledge of $100,000 to endow a scholarship. The scholarship will be awarded annually to a female student-athlete who demonstrates outstanding academic achievement and financial need. In athletics competition, DeFilippo has overseen some of the most successful seasons in Boston College Athletics history. The men’s ice hockey team just won its third NCAA Championship in the past five seasons, its fourth since 2001 and fifth overall. The hockey team has competed in five of the last seven national championship games. The women’s hockey team returned to the Frozen Four in 2012, and the sailing team has won 11 national team or individual titles in the past five years. In football, BC produced an unprecedented 12 straight winning

alumni stadium season PrevieW tHe eagles
and rest room facilities and a beautiful brick and glass exterior façade combine to make Alumni Stadium one of the finest football facilities in the nation. BC installed a state-of-the-art Field Turf surface in the summer of 2004. The scenic Chestnut Hill stadium, with the Boston skyline offering a splendid background in the distance, heightens the excitement and enthusiasm that is part of every Boston College home game.
2011 season revieW History & records
astroturf added During the summer of 2012, the existing artificial surface was replaced with an AstroTurf GameDay Grass 3D60H field. This custom-designed AstroTurf surface features the all new Horseshoe fiber. The fiber’s horseshoe shape features two end columns with a thicker diameter. The design imparts mechanical memory so that the fiber remains upright longer. The Horseshoe fiber continues to spring back to its original configuration, even after years of heavy foot traffic or exposure to ultra-violet radiation. A study at Michigan State University, funded by NFL Charities, found that AstroTurf GameDay Grass systems had performance values more like natural grass than any other synthetic product measured. In extensive testing, the Horseshoe fiber performs most like natural grass from ball roll, to slide resistance, to the biomechanical function of cleats penetrating and releasing properly. From an aesthetics standpoint, the fields look amazing. Making it even better is the fact that the football lines and logos are prefabricated and manufactured as part of the field, so the look is consistent.

ith a capacity of 44,500 maroon-and-gold-clad fans, Alumni Stadium is the home of the Eagles. The current version of Alumni Stadium opened in the fall of 1995. The roots of Alumni Stadium and on-campus football at Boston College date back to 1915, when the original Alumni Stadium was dedicated. The facility was located on middle campus on the site of today’s Stokes Hall. As Boston College enjoyed more and more football success in the 1930s and 1940s, the Eagles moved a majority of their home games to Boston’s two major league baseball stadiums, Fenway Park and Braves Field (now Nickerson Field on the Boston University campus). On Jan. 23, 1957, Boston College president Joseph R.N. Maxwell, S.J., announced that a new Alumni Stadium would be built on the BC campus as football no longer would be allowed in Fenway Park. A $250,000 campaign followed and on Sept. 26, 1957, the Eagles played host to Navy in the first game on the site of the present Alumni Stadium before a sellout crowd of 26,000-plus. The new stadium was constructed in an amazing span of 156 days. The game was arranged by then-United States Senator John F. Kennedy, but Navy spoiled the home opener with a 46-6 win. In 1971, Alumni Stadium was expanded to 32,000 seats and artificial turf and lights were installed. Alumni Stadium was rebuilt again in 1988 as matching upper decks and a new press box were added. These renovations were part of the building of Conte Forum. New scoreboards and instant replay screens, a new and improved lighting system, a state-of-the-art public address system, new concessions

YawkeY Center
I
n March 2005, Boston College football staff and players as well as the Office of Learning Resources for StudentAthletes moved into the Yawkey Athletics Center, BC’s new $27 million, 72,000-square-foot facility located behind the north end zone of Alumni Stadium. It includes new football offices, meeting and breakout rooms, locker rooms, sports medicine, strength and conditioning, equipment room, theater-style classrooms, recruiting and player lounges. The building also features the Murray Family Function Room, a multi-function room larger than the Shea Room that benefits the entire BC campus. After viewing the company’s impressive work at North Carolina, North Carolina State and Virginia Tech, BC contracted with DJS Design of Charlotte, N.C., for concept, design and construction of a football museum. Located in the main entry lobby, the museum features a soaring bronze eagle atop a lighted granite pedestal as its centerpiece. A multimedia kiosk will enable visitors to watch video highlights of great games and players in BC football history. Visitors will be allowed to touch and have photos taken with Doug Flutie’s Heisman Trophy, which is displayed in the open with no glass enclosure. BC received a commitment of $15 million from the Yawkey Foundation to help fund the new building and other athletics-related improvements to enhance intercollegiate, intramural and club sports. Other benefactors generously donated the rest of the money needed to complete the construction, making the Yawkey Center the first structure on the BC campus to be built entirely with private funds.
202
Completion of the Yawkey Center created a domino effect of facilities improvements for sports other than football. Once the football and Learning Resources staffs had completed their moves, workers began a multi-million dollar renovation to Conte Forum. The construction provided new office and locker room space for many of BC’s 31 varsity men’s and women’s sports as well as new office space for much of the administrative staff. Women’s basketball moved into a new suite of offices shortly thereafter, and the old football locker room has been converted into five new locker rooms for women’s sports. Many coaches and their assistants who had been working in cramped conditions have been relocated to new offices in the South end zone.
