Army Boston College Game

It would be a damn shame if Army is robbed of its chance to beat Boston College for a second year in a row due to the federal government shutdown.

Just as I was thinking that, it's Sal Interdonato with the status update.

Army is operating as if it will be playing its football game at Boston College Saturday despite the current halt to service-academy athletics due to the government shutdown. - See more at: http://blogs.hudsonvalley.com/west-point-army-football/#sthash.oepnOM0Y.dpuf

If the game isn’t played this weekend, the game could be completely off. Army and Boston College do not share a bye week through November.

We will see if it happens, I don't see the added value for either team, of making up this game even if it could be played later in the year.

So let's hope it goes down as scheduled. I don't think BC can play with Army, the Eagles were outsmarted to a man last year. We'll see if the coaching change helped this Boston College in this scenario.
