The Notre Dame Fighting Irish will be closing out the home portion of their schedule on Saturday with a Senior Day matchup against the Boston College Eagles. The Irish are seeking to pick up their fifth straight win and do it in a fashion that doesn’t prematurely age the fan base. Notre Dame’s 35-32 victory over Navy should have been a comfortable win but instead became a nail-biter.
Boston College had its own tense battle on Saturday as the Eagles scored a game-winning touchdown with just 14 seconds left to defeat double-digit favorite North Carolina State. The road win improved BC’s season record to 3-7 and snapped a four-game losing streak in the process.
