Fourth Quarter
Leary to Cary Angeline for a 15-yard TD pass. 45- 24 Boston College
After NC State scores a touchdown, BC scores their 5th of the day, again this time is AJ Dillon for his third of the day. 45-17 Boston College
Again! Boston College continues to pour it on with their fourth rushing touchdown, AJ Dillon with his second of the game. 38-10 Boston College
Third Quarter
BC's defense almost holds on at the goal line again, but Thayer Thomas catches a pass from Devin Leary for the touchdown. 31-10
After another goal line stand BC runs another long drive punched in by AJ Dillon 31-3. The rout is on.
Second Quarter
Another big time run by David Bailey, 48 yards this time. 24-3 Boston College
54 yard touchdown run by David Bailey! 17-3 Boston College
Feeding AJ Dillon down the field, BC stalls out at the 10 yard line after a bad trick play that drove them backwards. Boston College's offensive line is pushing around a very good NC State front seven, impressive so far. Field goal hit by Aaron Boumerhi from 27 yard line. 10-3 Boston College
Devin Leary is in at quarterback for the Wolfpack, Bailey Hockman struggled mightily in the first quarter. Christopher Dunn hits a 31 yard field goal to make it 7-3 Boston College
First Quarter
First drive for the Eagles goes run, run, incomplete pass, punt. Not much going there.
BC gets a sack, Shittah Sillah a freshman defensive end forces the Pack to go three and out. Good start by the defense.
50 yard screen pass from Dennis Grosel to Hunter Long! First and goal for the Eagles! Two incompletions, a run to no where. Intentional ground called, and Aaron Boumerhi misses the field goal.
Pick six by Jason Maitre! BC had NC State backed up and Bailey Hoffman threw a terrible pass for the easy touchdown.
NC State moves down the field quickly with some longer throws and a trick play, but BC holds on a goal line stand, led by a hell of a tackle by Tanner Karafa.
