## Resource

Boston College Eagles football is primed for a defensive turnaround under new coordinator Ted Roof. Can an aggressive scheme and improved health erase memories of last season’s struggles? AJ Black and Mitchell Wolf break down how a revamped pass rush and a loaded safety group—led by NFL prospect KP Price—could deliver more splash plays, sacks, and turnovers, even if it means risking the occasional explosive gain. Key topics include linebacker run defense, cornerback size concerns, and the chess match of using versatile athletes like Kris Jones and Anthony Palano in Roof’s pressure-heavy blueprint. The hosts spotlight depth chart X-factors, rookie standouts, and the potential impact of a game-changing special teams weapon. With emerging questions about Cincinnati’s new quarterback and Boston College’s roster transformation, are the Eagles ready to punish opposing offenses and rise up the ACC ranks?
