The Boston College Eagles football team (3-1, 1-0 ACC) is looking to end its non-conference slate on a positive note as it takes on the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers (3-1, 1-0 CUSA) on Saturday afternoon at Alumni Stadium. 

The Eagles have recorded wins over Florida State, Duquesne, and Michigan State, but suffered a loss to Missouri in Week 3. On the other hand, Western Kentucky lost its season opener to Alabama and has since won three in a row against Middle Tennessee State, Eastern Kentucky, and Toledo. 

Both teams are expected to be without their starting quarterbacks. Boston College’s Thomas Castellanos was ruled out on Friday afternoon after suffering an injury during the Eagles Week 4 win over Michigan State, while Western Kentucky’s TJ Finley will miss multiple weeks after suffering a lower leg injury in the Hilltoppers Week 2 victory over Middle Tennessee State. 

Kickoff is set for noon ET on ACC Network.
