Boston College Football Preview 2025: Eagles Season Prediction, Win Total Projection, Top Players
Stop being totally miserable in the red zone.The Eagles were among the worst teams in America when getting inside the 20-yard line. Not only did they come up with just three field goals on the season - two in the win over North Carolina - but the offense scored touchdowns just 65% of the time.It was a problem throughout the year and was a killer in the bowl loss to Nebraska, scoring just twice in five trips.
Boston College Eagles Key Player
Jude Bowry, OT Jr.The line was okay for the ground game, and it wasn't a huge problem overall, but it struggled in pass protection, and that was with All-ACC stars Ozzy Trapilo and Drew Kendall.Bowry and guard Logan Taylor on the left side are the veterans the offense has to work around, and then hope everything works out with … - Boston College Team Preview
Boston College Eagles Top Transfer, Biggest Transfer Loss
Top Transfer In: Amir Johnson, OG Jr.The interior of the Eagle line needed pieces. Johnson isn't huge, but the Merrimack transfer can move, and he fits exactly what the line needs at left guard. Combine him with Princeton transfer Tommy Matheson, and BC might have fixed the glitch.Top Transfer Out: Thomas Castellanos, QB Sr.Boston College is fine at quarterback, and the coaches are good at getting them rolling, but Castellanos was a fun playmaker. He didn't run last year like he did in his 1,113-yard, 13-touchdown 2023, but he'll be on the move this year at Florida State.
Boston College Eagles Key Game

Boston College 2025 Season Prediction, Win Total, What Will Happen
There's a bit too much to do to improve on both sides of the ball to be better than the 7-5 regular season of last year.The 2024 team was all over the place with one of the least consistent teams in the ACC, but at least the schedule should be helpful.In a strange quirk, there's just a trip to Louisville between October 11 and the season finale at Syracuse. Clemson, Notre Dame, and SMU are all difficult, but all three games are in Chestnut Hill.
There aren't enough sure-thing wins to feel comfortable, but again, it's Boston College.

Jeremiah Trotter Jr views pressure as a route to new opportunities with the Eagles
New responsibilities and Eagles injuries could crack the door for Jeremiah Trotter. We're entering year two of our discussions about nepotism and the Philadelphia Eagles' roster. Earlier this offseason, it was reported that there might be team interest in Asante Samuel Jr., but so far, the rumors have not led to any real action. That said, it seems more constructive to discuss a franchise legend's son who is already on the roster. It feels damn good to see the number 54 jersey on defense and know it belongs to Jeremiah Trotter Jr. This is Junior Axe Man. To most, he needs no introduction. His father was a big deal in midnight green. How fitting is it that his young lad was a proud member of Philadelphia's 2024 NFL Draft class? Some of us met him when we saw Dad holding him in his arms. The rest of the contingent may have met him during a successful run with the Clemson Tigers. Trotter Jr. enters his second Eagles training camp. Things seem to be going well. He appears to be making progress and has taken on a new responsibility that should provide him with more experience. That should benefit him as he walks into another regular season. There is also the injury to Nakobe Dean. He opens camp on the PUP (Physically Unable to Perform) list. After spending most of his rookie season contributing primarily on special teams, Trotter could see more meaningful snaps during games that count, but no one knows what that may look like at this point. Jeremiah Trotter Jr. adds to his palette at Eagles practice Jeremiah Trotter Sr. never won a Super Bowl with the Birds, though he did secure preferred seating at both victory parades. The younger Jeremiah Trotter won football's biggest game during his inaugural NFL season. He played primarily on special teams. One of the questions now is whether he will do so again this season. Most expected that, when he was drafted, 'Junior' would back up Nakobe Dean. No one expected, at that time, that Zack Baun would morph into a First-Team All-Pro. Thank Heaven that he did. It's always great to have as many great players on the roster as possible, but that shoved Trot Jr. further down the depth chart. Then came the selection of Jihaad Campbell during the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft. That seemingly clouded Trotter's picture even further. It would have seen that he would have tumbled down the depth chart had it not been for injury concerns surrounding Campbell and Dean entering Eagles training camp. Everyone has been in the mix. Defensive coordinator Vic Fangio has added to the mix of first- and second-year stars. Campbell has gotten snaps with the defense's first team. Trotter has been splitting play-calling duties with Zack Baun during training camp. Both may see significant roles. No one is 100% certain of what those roles are yet, not even Vic Fangio. Thankfully, none of us has to perform the balancing acts.

Recruiting Class: Boston College Bringing Firepower
Boston College is adding talent to their roster this offseason including a duo of forwards that could take the school's offensive attack to new levels. This offseason, Boston College leader Abby Newhook was selected in the PWHL Draft by the Boston Fleet. The school also lost Molly Jordan via the transfer portal to the University of Minnesota. The Boston College Eagles however, remain a program on an upward trajectory, and adding their recruiting class to their current top line talents including Sammy Taber and Julia Pellerin will only accelerate that process. Here's a look at Boston College's 2025-26 women's hockey recruiting class. Maxim Tremblay, F, Stanstead College A prolific scorer for Stanstead College, Tremblay is 5-foot-10 and has a rifle for a shot. She scored 64 goals and 114 points in 70 games last season. She's the type of talent who could shift Boston College's future. Uses her size well, but it's her shoot first mentality that makes her the biggest threat. Ava Thomas, F, Philadelphia Jr. Flyers Won gold at the U-18 World Championships with USA scoring nine points in six games. As a member of Philadelphia's 19-U 'AAA' team she's been one of the top scorers in the nation the past three seasons. Last year she had 38 goals and 60 points in only 21 games. Alonside Tremblay, this is a tandem that could grow into one of the NCAA's top offensive duos. Alaina Dunn, D, Massachusetts Spitfires A mobile defender who represented USA at the 2025 U-18 World Championships, Dunn will be a good replacement for Molly Jordan on Boston College's blueline this season. Other incoming recruits: Madelyn Murphy, Emily Mara, Maude Niemann
