How to Watch: Boston College at No. 10 Florida State; Full Week 1 TV Schedule
The Boston College Eagles football team kicks off its season on Labor Day Night with a matchup against conference foe the Florida State Seminoles.
The two programs, however, could not be in more different situations heading into the contest.
The Eagles will come into the game with a new coaching staff with first-year head coach Bill O'Brien leading the way, but the team will look similar to last year as it retained a majority of its players from the 2023 season including 15 starters.
On the other hand, the Seminoles will head into their home opener led by fifth-year head coach Mike Norvell, but the roster will look a lot different from last year as the team lost a majority of its players. Florida State will also have a loss on its record after losing to Georgia Tech 24-21 in Week 0.
Below is all the information about the matchup.
