Boston College ventures into Lane Stadium for a Thursday night contest as the
highest ranked opponent (#11 in the ESPN/Coaches poll, #13 in the AP poll, and
#14 in the BCS) to face the Hokies so far this year. The last time the Eagles
visited Blacksburg, BC walked away with a 34-27 upset victory, so Virginia Tech
will have some retribution in mind for this year�s game.

Boston College will bring their usual big, physical team, and the battle in
the trenches is always interesting to watch when these two teams get together.
In their Big East battles, the difference between Virginia Tech and Boston
College often came down to speed at the skill positions with the Hokies holding
the edge, but this year�s Eagles squad has more speed than many of those teams
in the past. We�ll take a look at some of the key match-ups in the game, but
first let�s take a quick look back at the Maryland game.
