The Boston College Eagles (5-5, 2-4 ACC) football team looks to become bowl eligible as it returns to Alumni Stadium to take on the UNC Tar Heels (6-4, 3-3 ACC).
UNC, who was projected to be in the top half of the conference this year, has had a rollercoaster of a season. The team started off strong as it recoded wins over Minnesota, Charlotte, and NC Central, however went on a four-game skid with losses to James Madison, Duke, Pitt, and Georgia Tech.
Since the skid, the Tar Heels have won their last three games against Virginia, Florida State and Wake Forest which made them bowl eligible.
Boston College is in a similar boat. After going 4-1 in the first five weeks of the season, the Eagles went winless in October as they suffered losses to Virginia, Virginia Tech, and Louisville.
Since then, the Eagles have gone 1-1 with a dominant win over Syracuse and a close loss to No. 13 SMU. They still need one win in their final two games to become eligible.
Today also marks the 40th anniversary of the “Hail Flutie.” Boston College is set to honor the 1984 team.
