Two dominant signal callers in Thomas Castellanos and Haynes King are getting ready to go toe-to-toe. After each having a week off, the Boston College Eagles and the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets will dust off their jerseys to take on one another at 4:00 p.m. ET on October 21st at Bobby Dodd Stadium at Hyundai Field. The two teams each escaped (but just barely!) with wins against their previous opponents.
Two weeks ago, Boston College beat Army by the very same score they won with last week: 27-24. The win made it back-to-back wins for Boston College.
Castellanos got back to being his usual excellent self, as he rushed for 142 yards and four touchdowns. Pat Garwo III also helped out as he racked up 111 rushing yards.
Boston College was down by three with only five minutes and 24 seconds left when they drove 62 yards for the winning score. Castellanos punched in the touchdown from 1 yard out.
Meanwhile, Georgia Tech gave up the first points two weeks ago, but they didn't let that get them down. They came out on top in a nail-biter against Miami (FL) and snuck past 23-20.
Nobody from Georgia Tech had a standout game, but they got scores from King, Jamal Haynes, and Christian Leary.
Georgia Tech was down by three with only 26 seconds left when they drove 69 yards for the winning score. King hit Leary from 44 yards out and that was all she wrote.
Their wins lifted both teams to an identical 3-3.
Boston College will be fighting an uphill battle on Saturday as the experts have pegged them as the 4.5-point underdog.
