There's really nothing like a fun stat to start the morning to any sports fan, and Boston College fans are no different.

When Boston College faces off against Nebraska in the Pinstripe Bowl, it will be the first ever meeting between the two historic programs. Boston College's football program was formed in 1892, while Nebraska's began in 1890. That means that two of the oldest college football programs in the country that are still at the division one level are meeting for the first time well over 120 years after their founding date.

How about that, huh? Now, onto the headlines.

Today's Schedule:

No games are scheduled for Friday, Dec. 13.

Countdown to Boston College baseball’s season opener:
