This quote from Mizzou head coach Eli Drinkwitz stirred up a lot of drama that preceded Boston College football’s home match-up against the Missouri Tigers. Whether or not that drama was justified is its own conversation, but it was certainly on the minds of the BC football program considering Jeff Hafley sent out MA natives as captains for the coin toss and later poked fun at the remark in his own postgame presser.
But what seemed to be a bunch of half-hearted pre-game hype turned into an amazing football game. Both teams traded possessions left and right in an incredible offensive display at Alumni Stadium.
