Noncompetitive.
That’s the one word to describe Boston College’s effort against Florida State this weekend at a sold out Doak Campbell Stadium. From the word “Go,” the Eagles were embarrassed and in no way belonged on the same field as the Seminoles. In our BC Interruption game chat, before kickoff, someone asked how long we would have any hope, and then answered their own question with “probably zero minutes.” Not sixty seconds later, Trey Benson was sprinting down the field for 93 yards. Prescient.
While I watched the Eagles get pantsed on national television — every minute of it, like a true masochist — I tried to keep things positive by enjoying my usual dose of schadenfreude: checking in on the UConn football score.
