Boston College Football - Throwback Thursday - BC 37 Rutgers 20 - 1992

Tom Coughlin's second season in Chestnut Hill begins on a winning note as Eagles top Scarlet Knights on way to an 8-3-1 season and Hall of Fame Bowl bid.

Welcome to Throwback Thursday. Each week of the 2015 season, we'll revisit a BC game on that date. We start with the renaissance of a program.

Expectations were high on both sides of Alumni Stadium on September 5, 1992 when Tom Coughlin's second Eagle squad took on a team who perhaps carried even higher expectations into the season than the Rutgers Scarlet Knights. BC rode a series of big plays and complete control over both lines of scrimmage to a decisive 37-20 win.
