## Resource

Boston College edges Rutgers 28-21 in an emotional Red Bandana Game, but can the Eagles build momentum ahead of tougher ACC tests? AJ Black and Mike Sidhly examine Anthony Palano’s monster defensive outing—2 interceptions, 9 tackles, and a game-sealing sack—and break down how freshman Cam McGee and the revamped interior defensive line are changing Ted Roof’s game plan. Key discussion points include Mason McKenzie's evolving leadership at quarterback, a wide receiver rotation riddled with question marks, and special teams struggles that could loom large. Will Bill O'Brien’s focus on culture bring out the best in stars like Jaedn Skeete? The coaches’ adjustments, injury updates for Bodie Cahoun and others, and a pivotal matchup against Maine shape the outlook for Boston College’s season. Don’t miss this sharp analysis of the Eagles’ improvements, growing pains, and what must happen next to keep winning.
