Bowl Projections: Post Week 9
Bowl projections are just that an educated guess, but they are certainly interesting to look at and see where different sites have Boston College bowling. Now sitting at 4-3 and their toughest game behind them, it looks all but certain that the Eagles will be bowling this season. Here are some of the projections from around the internet
Kyle Bonagura- Pinstripe Bowl vs. Northwestern
Mark Schlabach- Pinstripe Bowl vs. Purdue
Analysis: Lots of interesting subplots here. Of course this is a bowl game that Steve Addazio lost both games against. On top of that these are two programs BC has played in the past decade, and the Eagles went 0-3 against them. Finally, Northwestern new OC is BC's former coach Mike Bajakian. But on the negative side, cold game, and last time the Eagles played their it was like playing on ice.

Sun Bowl vs. Washington
Analysis: Same as last week. This is what we said about it in our previous recap. "A bowl game that has eluded Boston College, but one that has been pretty attractive in term's of relative prestige and solid opponent. Washington is a perennial Top 25 team, and this would be a great way to end the season. "

Military Bowl vs. Navy
Analysis: Playing against a service academy is always a positive and a good tough experience. But going to Maryland in December is not necessarily the most attractive location for the Eagles .
