Boston College Eagles

After snapping a three-game losing streak with a 37-31 win over the Syracuse Orange on Saturday afternoon, the Boston College Eagles football team improved to 5-4 on the season and is one game away from becoming bowl eligible.

Now, the Eagles have to pull out at least one win in their final three games, No. 14 SMU, UNC, and Pitt, to be eligible for their second-straight bowl game.

The last time Boston College made back-to-back bowl games was in the 2018-19 seasons, however one of those resulted in a no contest. In 2018, the First Responder Bowl was canceled with 5:08 remaining in the first quarter and the Eagles leading 7-0 over No. 25 Boise State due to severe weather. The following season, the Eagles lost to the Cincinnati Bearcats 38-6 in the Birmingham Bowl on Jan. 2, 2020.

As of right now, the Eagles are projected to land in four possible bowl games.
