Instant Reaction: Boston College Wins Ugly Over Maine, 24-3

Growing pains

There were some positive takeaways from BC's 24-3 win over the FCS Black Bears, but it's hard not to come out of Saturday's win feeling a little nervous about the season to come.

That's not to say anyone should panic (yet), but the offense certainly struggled despite pulling away in the second half.

Maine took an early lead with a long drive after the opening kickoff, culminating in a field goal and a 3-0 advantage, but from that point on, the BC defense came to play. The Black Bears could only muster seven (7) yards on the ground.
