CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. — The Boston College Eagles (1-4, 0-3 ACC) football team is looking to get back in the win column against the Clemson Tigers (2-3, 1-2 ACC) on Saturday night. 

Currently, Boston College is riding a four-game losing streak. After winning its season opener against Fordham 66-10 on Aug. 30, the team has gone winless since. During the skid, the Eagles have suffered losses to Michigan State 42-40, Stanford 30-20, Cal 28-24, and most recently Pitt 48-7 over the weekend. 

Clemson, on the other hand, is coming off a dominant 38-10 win over the UNC Tar Heels this past weekend. The victory broke a two-game skid for the Tigers where they lost to No. 13 Georgia Tech 24-21 and Syracuse 34-21.

In the ACC race, Boston College is sitting in last place in the standings while Clemson slightly ahead in 14th place.

This will be the 33rd meeting all-time between the two teams. Clemson holds the advantage in the all-time series 21-9-2 and is on a 12-game winning streak.

The last meeting between the Eagles and Tigers was on Oct. 8, 2022. Clemson beat Boston College 31-3 at Alumni Stadium in Chestnut Hill, Mass.

The contest marks the final game of a two-game road trip for Clemson while it starts a two-game home stand for Boston College as the team hosts UConn next weekend before hitting the road for Louisville.
