BCCentral previews the Eagles upcoming season’s opponents. Up next is the Pittsburgh Panthers.
The Boston College Eagles play their final regular-season game in Week 14 against the Pittsburgh Panthers at home.
While there is a lot of time between now and that game, the two teams look very different heading into the season. Boston College kept its offensive success and lost a couple of key defensive pieces, while Pitt is the other way around. The Eagles will also be led by first-year head coach Bill O’Brien, who has not coached a collegiate game since 2013 with Penn State and Pitt will be led by veteran head coach Pat Narduzzi, who has been with the Panthers since 2015.Like every team, the start of a solid offense starts around its quarterback and the Panthers have a question mark sitting at that position as the team lost two of its three quarterbacks that started in 2023, Christian Veilleux and Phil Jurkovec.
As for offensive weapons, the Panthers kept its top running back Rodney Hammond Jr., who had 118 attempts for 547 yards and four touchdowns, however lost their top wide receiver Bub Meand to the draft. Pitt did retain its second best receiver from the previous year Konata Mumpfield, who caught 44 receptions for 576 yards and five touchdowns.The Panthers defense will look similar to last season as the team retained its top two tackles in defensive backs Javon McIntyre and Donovan McMillon.
The unit did lose its third best tackler linebacker Soloman DeShields via the transfer portal and cornerback M.J. Devonshire to the draft.For both teams, this is the last regular-season game of the year. Since the contest is at home, the Eagles will be celebrating Senior Day as well as Youth Sports Day.Although Pitt has the all-time advantage and won its last matchup against the Eagles, I expect this contest to be close.
