Boston College Football at Syracuse: An Overview of the Matchup and All Time Series

The Boston College Eagles and Syracuse Orange will face off on Saturday at 3 p.m. to determine the last-place team in the Atlantic Coast Conference. Both teams have struggled this season, with Boston College holding a 1-10 record and Syracuse at 1-6. The Eagles have a slight offensive edge, ranking 77th in total offense compared to Syracuse's 96th, largely due to their stronger passing game.

Syracuse's offense has been challenged, particularly after losing starting quarterback Steve Angeli to an Achilles injury. Angeli had been a key performer, leading to the team's early success. Since his injury, Syracuse's offense has struggled, as evidenced by their 70-7 loss to Notre Dame last weekend.

Boston College showed offensive promise in a narrow 36-34 loss to No. 16 Georgia Tech, with quarterback Dylan Lonergan throwing for 362 yards. The Eagles will rely on their passing game, led by Lewis Bond, who recently set program records
