In just under 24 hours, Boston College football’s 2026 ACC Kickoff representatives will hop onto the podium at the Hilton Charlotte Uptown in Charlotte, N.C., where attending media may ask questions to both the players and BC head coach Bill O’Brien about the program’s outlook this upcoming season.

Senior defensive back KP Price, redshirt-junior quarterback Mason McKenzie, and redshirt-sophomore linebacker Anthony Palano — the latter two of which transferred into the program in December — are the Eagles’ representatives this year. Price attended the event last year as well.

Coming off a 2-10 season, BC will commence its 2026 campaign with a road matchup against Cincinnati on Sept. 5 at 3:30 p.m. ET before hosting Rutgers on Sept. 11 at 7:30 p.m. for the program’s annual Red Bandanna Game.

Here is the full television and radio schedule for BC’s representatives for the annual preseason event.
