The 119th season of Boston College football is finally upon us, with a season opening kickoff on Friday night at 9:30 p.m. EST, as the Eagles visit Brigham Field at Huskie Stadium in DeKalb, Illinois to face Northern Illinois.
It will be the second time in three seasons, but only third time overall, that the two programs have met, with the Eagles having won their home tilt against the Huskies, 17-14, on September 26, 2015.
At this point, neither coach has announced their starting quarterback for the season. Head coach Steve Adazzio will be making his choice between graduate student Darius Wade and redshirt freshman Anthony Brown.
