Boston College: It's Trophy Time

One of our writers has a huge stash of various old BC sporting events on VHS and today put up the entire 2001 national championship game on YouTube. Until now I don't even think a full highlight of even the GWG existed on the internet... so this is pretty B.A.

i'll never forget the feeling when Kolanos scored that goal, never anything quite like it in my sports life................or when Sioux tied it up late either. Cant wait to get home today and watch it. Thanks Grant

When the Sioux tied it up, I can't even explain how sickening that feeling was. I remember going down to watch the overtime in the basement because I could not stand to be around other people at that moment. When Kolanos scored, the feeling was more relief than anything else. It seemed if they didn't win it then, they never would. I imagine Miami fans felt the same way in 2009.
 
Re: Boston College: It's Trophy Time

If I'm in the minority, so be it. But I think, as strong as BC (supposedly) is, I'd handicap this FF--> ND-QU-DU-BC. That's more an observation on the strength of the field than any perceived weakness on the part of BC. However, I suspect that even though they won't admit as much, QU will have some early-game jitters that BC has to capitalize on.

sounds right, 4-3-2-1. could very well see a pios-igles final.
 
Re: Boston College: It's Trophy Time

Judging from what I have looked into, BC won't win the NT. Since the format of Hocky Rast, no Beanpot school has won the national title without winning both a beanpot and a conference tourney title. CHCC is doomed! (I'm just playing)

You may be right. This is a great FF field. 4 of top 6 in pwr. Sometimes the best team loses in one and done though (CC over BC in St. Louis).

Have heard a lot about Garteig but "only" has a .926 save percentage on a great team. So maybe BC can get to him. We'll see.

Any team that plays QU has to beware the third period, they usually start cautiously, then it it a steamroller downhill from there. Gartieg has been much better than in years past though, he occasionally will let in a softie but the QU puck possession and defense usually takes over the game despite the goalie.

i agree with that, said it from the start that we were the least fave here . Not sandbagging Mookie. DU has been white hot and has a good record of converting FF's into NC's

Re: Boston College: It's Trophy Time

This day is already becoming one of the longest in history. Can 5 PM just get here already?!
 
Re: Boston College: It's Trophy Time

BC, all the best.
My opinion.. you are the underdog in this having seen Q against Lowell but that's why they play the games. G'luck.
 
Re: Boston College: It's Trophy Time

Well, that was an awful period. Two defensive breakdowns leading to two goals, made worse by the fact that the first one was offside and shouldn't have counted. 0 for 2 on the PP. Have to figure Q will get the next one. Man, 2 goals down against this team, not good. Gonna be real tough.
