Some light reading as we all eagerly await puck drop tonight.
In what will hopefully be one long tailgate for a coronation later that evening, Boston College Maroon will take on Boston College Gold in the annual Jay McGillis Memorial Spring Game Saturday at noon.
Don’t expect to see any scoring in this game. O’Brien parried the notion of arbitrary points and scrambled teams. This will be simple offense vs defense, a very competitive practice — more akin to the Saturday scrimmages they’ve been having throughout spring ball. Still, he says, you’ll see live tackling and hear the music blasting in an all around lively Alumni Stadium atmosphere.
