CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Boston College's week four game against Michigan State at Alumni Stadium is scheduled for an 8 p.m. kickoff on Saturday, Sept, 21. The game will be the Eagles' 11th Annual Red Bandanna Game and will air nationally on ACC Network.

The Red Bandanna Game honors BC alum and 9/11 hero Welles Crowther '99. The red bandanna was a defining feature used to identify Crowther, who died in the terrorist attack of Sept. 11, 2001. Crowther, known to survivors as "The Man in the Red Bandanna" is credited with saving at least one dozen people in the South Tower of the World Trade Center.
