Boston College:(ACC) 2002 and 2003


College:  BC (ACC)
Year:   2003
Games:  2003 Miami 33 BC 14, 2002 Virginia Tech 28 BC 23
Rating:  4 out of 10 or (Barely average)
Cost:  It’s Boston so it’s going to be expensive.  Camping is not really an option.
Tickets:  Pretty easy
Stadium:  Generic, just like BC
Description:  The old saying around Boston is “How do you know if someone went to BC”?  The answer: “Wait 5 minutes and they’ll tell you.”  If I had to describe BC football it wouldn’t even take 5 minutes.  The tailgate is weak, the game experience is average.  When you walk around the stadium it’s creepy because all of the students look the same.  It is exhibit A as to why college football is not as popular in the northeast as it is almost everywhere else in the US. This is supposed to be our "big time" program.   Also, enough with this “BC Superfan” concept.  They are anything but “Superfans”.  BC has never been considered an intimidating place to play, unless you are a 10 year old alter boy.
Having said all this if you still want to hit a BC game here is how I would proceed.  Find a labor day game or some other time in early September when the Red Sox are in town and merge it with Fenway.  That is the only way I can really justify it. 
Don’t Miss: Letting the door hit you in the ass on the way out
Avoid:  BC Superfans
Attendees: Bones, Polychronopolus, Ignatius P Reilly
