Game Thread: Boston College vs. Virginia Tech (8:00PM, ACCN)
Boston College is set to battle with the Virginia Tech Hokies, tonight at 8pm on the ACC Network. The Hokies have one of the best rushing attacks in the country, averaging over 300 yards a game. But on the other hand, their defense has suffered this year, due partially to missing players, and have allowed 37.0 points per game.
