It was 7-0. I swear. It was then 7-3, and even 7-6 at halftime. Boston College was winning — I saw it with my own two eyes. Unfortunately, while the first 30 minutes were pleasant the final 30 minutes were anything but. Virginia Tech scored 24 points in the second half, including the first 21 points coming out of halftime, sending B.C. to its sixth loss in six tries against F.B.S. competition. Again, a 2-10 finish is a distinct possibility. Bowling Green was the last team to go from bowl play to double-digit losses in the span of a single season — from 2009 to 2010 — but this isn’t Bowling Green; this is B.C., and while the Eagles aren’t a national power this sort of decline was completely unforeseeable. This is a disaster.
