Boston College Eagles College Football Tickets Available

The Boston College Eagles college football team was established in 1892, when the college agreed to set up the team upon the request of Joseph O'Connell and John Drum, the latter becoming the team's first coach. Since its inception the team has proven its worth as a formidable opponent, having won many of its matches among its long-standing rivals, the College of the Holy Cross and the University of Notre Dame. The team has also been ranked high in the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) standings in recent years

In addition, the Boston College Eagles have been ranked among the country's best among the college football teams for academic achievement, having garnered the highest mark possible in the polls for any college football team's Academic Progress Rate. (APR) In addition, Boston College has been proud of its players from the team's roster through the years that eventually made significant contributions to professional football; one of these players that stood out and made the Tigers a competitive team is Doug Flutie, who has been regarded as a legend in Boston College football history.

Based in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts, the Eagles have been playing at the Alumni Stadium in the Boston College campus grounds since 1957, when the stadium was opened to replace the smaller Alumni Field grounds nearby.

Important Moments And Accomplishments

Throughout its history, the Boston College Eagles have appeared in a record of 19 post-season bowl appearances. The team last bowl appearance was on 2007's Champs Sports Bowl when it defeated the Michigan State Spartans for the title. This victory would also mark the Eagles' 8th straight bowl victory, a winning streak record which by itself is unprecedented in collegiate football history.

In addition, Boston College has also managed to snag a conference title when it was a member of the Big East Conference. Since becoming a member of the ACC, the team has managed to win the conference's Atlantic Division championship in 2007 and be listed as one of the Top 10 college football teams by the Associated Press for that year.

Quarterbacks in the Current Roster

Currently, the team's quarterbacks are composed of Alexander Atiyeh, Codi Boek, Chris Crane, Dominic Davis, Chris Johnson, Nick Loury, John Lowell, and Justin Tuggle.

Football Recruiting 101 - Academics

You have all the ability in the world to play football in college. Your coach has given you his vote of confidence. Your trainer has given you his vote of confidence. You have it made, right. Hold on a minute. If you think you are so good that your grades don't matter, then think again. Your grades matter BIG TIME. First off you have to be cleared by the NCAA Initial Eligibility Clearinghouse if you are to play D1 or D11 football in college. See the guide for the College Bound Student-athlete for academic guidelines.

To make sure you are on track meet with your school counselor on a regular basis, and make it very clear to him or her that you intend to play college football. Don't think that you can slack off on your studies and then turn it on in your senior year. If that is your stance then you will find yourself in community college like it or not.

If you don't test well and are concerned about doing well on the SAT then you will need a high GPA. If your GPA is low then you will need to do well on the SAT just to be considered academically qualified. Remember your grades are going to get you accepted into the college and are going to keep you qualified to play.

Scholarships are year to year so you can't afford to get complacent. Your career as a football player is at stake here as well as a lot of money to be had to help get your college paid for. Good study habits will follow you and set you up for the future if you discipline yourself and take academics very serious.

College Football - Week 7 - Only 10 Undefeated Teams Remain - Oklahoma, Missouri and LSU All Lose

College football's 7th week started with 15 teams left undefeated and ended with only 10 as No. 1 Oklahoma, No. 3 Missouri, No. 4 Louisiana State, No. 13 Vanderbilt and No. 20 Auburn all were upset.

Some fans would point out that you could hardly call the Oklahoma and LSU losses as upsets since the No. 1 Sooners were playing No. 5 Texas Longhorns and the No. 4 LSU Tigers were playing the No. 11 Florida Gators.

The Texas-Oklahoma contest was a shoot out that Longhorn Coach Mack Brown called "one of the greatest football games I've ever seen." Texas was behind by 11 points twice in the first half and by 8 in the 3rd quarter before winning 45-35 at home.

Longhorn Chris Ogbannaya, a senior making his second start, rushed 15 times for 127 yards, none more important than his 62-yard gain on a play headed nowhere that helped put Texas on top to stay.

Texas' junior quarterback Colt McCoy went 28-of-35 for 277 yards with 1 TD pass and no turnovers. Oklahoma's sophomore quarterback Sam Bradford was not to be outdone, going 28-of-39 for 387 yards and 5 TDs. Bradford found Jordan Shipley for 11 passes, 112 yards and a TD. Shipley also had an electrifying 96-yard return for a TD.

No. 3 Missouri is not as good as its pre-game 5-0 record warrants and No. 17 Oklahoma State proved it by traveling to Missouri and beating the Tigers at home, 28-23, pushing its unbeaten record to 6-0. The loss was the first for Missouri.

No. 11 Florida just took it to No. 4 LSU, leading 20-3 at the half and finishing off the Tigers 51-21 at home. We no longer need to guess which team is better.

No. 13 Vanderbilt's little 15-minute brush with fame is over as the Commodores traveled to unranked Mississippi State and promptly lost 17-14 to the Bulldogs. Mississippi raised its record to 2-4 with the win over Vanderbilt. There are no words to describe the No. 20 Auburn Tigers who lost at home to unranked Arkansas 25-22. Auburn fell right out of the AP Top 25 Poll with a thud.

Between Missouri, Louisiana State and Auburn, it was not a good week to be the Tigers. Kudos to Texas, Florida and Oklahoma State which defended their rankings.

Among the other top 13 ranked teams which won were No. 6 Penn State on the road over Wisconsin 48-7, No. 7 Texas Tech at home over Nebraska 37-31 in overtime, No. 8 Southern California at home 28-0 over Arizona State, No. 9 BYU at home 21-3 over New Mexico, No, 10 Georgia at home 26-14 over Tennessee, No. 12 Ohio State at home 16-2 over Purdue, and No. 14 Utah on the road 40-7 over Wyoming.

Also No. 15 Boise State on the road 24-7 over Southern Mississippi, No. 16 Kansas at home 30-14 over Colorado, No. 21 Wake Forest at home 12-7 over Clemson (another Tiger team), No. 22 North Carolina at home 29-24 over Notre Dame, No. 23 Michigan State on the road 37-20 over unbeaten and unranked Northwestern, and No. 25 Ball State on the road 24-7 over 1-AA Western Kentucky.

The 10 remaining unbeaten teams (in no particular order) include Alabama, Penn State, Texas, Boise State, Texas Tech, Utah, BYU, Ball State, Oklahoma State and Tulsa.

If you look at the Sagarin Ratings for schedule strength this is how the 10 unbeaten teams are ranked from best schedule strength to worst:

Alabama (38th), Texas (43rd), Utah (72nd), Penn State (74th), Oklahoma State (94th), Texas Tech (105th), Ball State (107th), Boise State (111th), Brigham Young (121st) and Tulsa (141st). This would go a long way in explaining why some of these teams are unbeaten. There are 119 Division 1-A schools so you can imagine how tough the teams were that played the last 5 of these unbeaten teams.

Tulsa plays absolutely no one worth talking about and could go unbeaten if they beat 3-3 Arkansas. Tulsa's last victory was over a 1-6 Southern Methodist team and the Golden Hurricane (that's Tulsa) won 37-31. Brigham Young thankfully faces off against Utah in the last game of the year for both schools. Boise State pretty much gets a free ride until Fresno State. Ball State really faces nobody.

Alabama, Texas, Penn State, Oklahoma State and Texas Tech will earn their way by facing far tougher competition.

Alabama, Virginia Tech, South Florida and Pittsburgh were all idle this week.

Other notable performances merit some attention. Penn State's Nittany Lions traveled to Wisconsin and beat the Badgers at home 48-7. It is not easy to beat Wisconsin at home, and for Joe Paterno's team to rip the Badgers apart was impressive.

Michigan is really underwhelming this year, losing again at home in the Big House to Toledo 13-10. The loss marked the first time in its storied history that Michigan has lost to a Mid-American Conference team. Toledo came into the contest with a 1-4 mark and an earlier loss to Florida International.

Oregon State has to be the nastiest 3-3 team in the nation. The Beavers thumped Washington State 66-13, topped Hawaii 45-7, upset Southern Cal 27-21, and is in no mood to explain its losses to Stanford, Penn State and Utah (all on the road). They travel to Washington this week and I would not want to be a Husky when they arrive.

After such a great start to its season, East Carolina now looks very average, losing again on the road to Virginia 35-20.

The new AP Top 25 Poll has the top 10 in this order-Texas, Alabama, Penn State, Oklahoma, Florida, Southern Cal, Texas Tech, Oklahoma State, Brigham Young and Georgia.

Some games of interest this week include No. 12 Ohio State at No. 20 Michigan State, No. 13 LSU at unranked but dangerous South Carolina, No. 22 Vanderbilt at No. 10 Georgia (the Commodores may lose their ranking), No. 16 Kansas at No. 4 Oklahoma (beware, Jayhawks), No. 11 Missouri at No. 1 Texas, unranked Michigan at No. 3 Penn State (Joe Paterno's eyes get bigger and bigger every week, only exceeded by his appetite for victories), and Hawaii at No. 15 Boise State (could the Warriors do the impossible?).

Oregon Boise State College Football Fight

I show the fight AND the radio report from both stations, Boise State and Oregon radio. The Oregon one made Boise State look like the cuplrit. OMG No. 14 Boise State beat No. 16 Oregon 19-8 late Thursday night in what was the biggest home game in Broncos history. Unfortunately, the game ended on a bad note, when Oregon running back LeGarrette Blount punched Boise State's Byron Hout during the postgame activity on the field.

Football Fundraising Ideas to Please Everyone

If you've been involved with the football team for any length of time, you've probably seen all sorts of football fundraising ideas come and go. Brochures, food, cards - these are all football fundraisers that have varying degrees of popularity and success with sports teams of all kinds. You may have discovered from previous fundraising efforts that your particular group likes to sell to their fellow students on school grounds, and if that is the case, then you're going to need to research fundraising ideas that will appeal to the kids, as they will likely be the majority of your supporters.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out what fundraisers the kids will like best. Chocolate may be the oldest football fundraising idea in the book, but there's a reason it's still around and that it's still so popular. Chocolate never goes out of style, kids never get tired of having it, and so if the students are going to be your chief customer base, then give the customers what they want! You'll have to organize things with the school so that you can execute your sale on school grounds during lunch periods or between classes, and if you can get that permission, then you're all set. There are chocolate fundraisers ranging from fundraising specific dollar chocolate bars to Hershey's and other brand names, so we're bound to have something that will suit you and your team.

Pizza cards can be another great football fundraising idea, if for example the school doesn't want you to sell chocolate on campus, or you're just looking for a product that is a bit easier to distribute. Pizza cards give your supporters a great 2-for-1 discount at their favorite local pizza merchants, and up to 90% of the profits on the cards can go to your team.

The Team Colours Of A True Supporter

We all love to support our favourite team, but how far should our support and dedication be expected to go? To show our love of our team we're all expected to show off the football team's colour by wearing the football shirt of our desired team. But who really gains from this?
Do you feel any more or less of a fan because you don't parade your football team colours up and down the streets and bars of your home town?

And if the football teams were so dedicated to the fans why would the football shirts be such an extortionate price?

Jets state must be jolly happy about their position in the gulp. There are also several cases where a participant seeks out a list in tribute to soul else. This is normally because, as a coincidence, it was the keep down worn by particularly great players in different eras. I more often than not put stuff on that entreaty to me such as baseball hats, jerseys, posters, blankets, trash cans, stickers and more. Includes hex pad shirts, compression drawers and seamless body shirts, pads, supports and tape recording.

When drivers change teams, however, they take a new act that is owned by that team. Good memories will forever remain in your heart, but bad experiences you would like to leave.

During the next seven years, rugby gained favour with the major eastern schools over soccer, and modernistic football began to arise from rugby. Not only do we offer great prices, but we prolong the same low price crosswise all sizes. Good memories will forever continue in your heart, but bad experiences you would like to forget. After years of ontogeny and achiever we decided to boom our business onto the internet. Even to this day, low numbers racket are generally associated with being an everyday player, and many players try to get one, no issue what it is. So why do we persist in wearing the football shirts of our teams?

I mostly put stuff on that appeal to me such as baseball hats, jerseys, posters, blankets, trash cans, stickers and more. However, it is generally understood in these cases that these numbers game will not be worn again. Even to this day, low numbers game is generally associated with being an everyday player, and many players try to get one, no matter what it is. We reciprocate positive feedback and would like you to reach us, ahead departure anything but positive feedback. I think with this sixth selection, the Jets hold a key trump card in the stallion potation.

Sellers are not responsible for armed service transportation time. Their club or franchise will retreat the shirt enumerate that the role player wore during their time there, meaning no other role player is permitted to use that enumerate in the future.

I think with this sixth selection, the Jets hold a key trump card in the intact draft copy. Jets republican must be jolly happy about their position in the draft copy. Their club or franchise will strike out the shirt phone routine that the instrumentalist wore during their time there, meaning no other instrumentalist is permitted to use that phone routine in the futurity.
So regardless of your football shirt wearing exploits or face painting support we all know really that you love your team as much as the next person.

I try to pass on my musings on life and experiences in a way that people may find interesting to read.

The Optimum Team Size in Youth Football

Team Sizes in Youth Football

There is an optimum size for a youth football team. If your team has too few players, a key injury or grade problem can seriously affect your teams ability to compete or even have a productive football practice. Too many players and it becomes very difficult to offer the proper coaching attention and even get the kids reasonable amounts of playing time.

There are some youth football coaches that believe “the more the merrier” when it comes to player numbers. I think many of these coaches think the more players they have the better chance that they will have that some superstar among that number will emerge to carry the team. There is a local team that carried 40-60 players on its squad and still lost most of its games, poor coaching often won’t even overcome huge talent pools. Our Omaha league saw one of our teams face a team that suited up 52 kids. Most teams in the league suit up from 22-35 players. High numbers guarantees nothing but lots of headaches for the head coach, very low numbers will do the same.

We have found the best player to coach ratio is about 5 or 6 players per coach. If you carry 40 kids on your youth football team would mean you need 7 coaches. That many coaches is hard to find to begin with and then to train and have them all on the same page would be a management miracle worthy enough to be Donald Trump’s apprentice. Teams this large rarely see players developing to their full potential, as the head coach and his assistants are spread so thin.

Teams this large often see very good players or diamonds in the rough fall through the cracks. These kind of kids often do not get noticed or develop very well on large teams. Even doing a simple fit and freeze team drill would mean all players reps would be limited, the starters and the backups would be in just half the time. Getting all the kids playing time in games would be a disaster. To get your backups time, your starters would have to come out very early and fail to develop as well as they could with more playing time. If you have minimum play rules, your best players would not be on the field long enough to make much of a difference. There is no doubt you will lose lots of players from a team like this and I wouldn’t even want to think about the parent hassles, what a nightmare. Team sizes this large are a huge disadvantage, not the advantage most people think.

The first year I started the Screaming Eagle program in Omaha, I had 36 youth football players, all on one team. We had no option of dividing into another team, because for most of the season we had one coach, myself. Later on we got a great guy to help that had not coached or played football, but was a great basketball coach. That many players with so few coaches was a real disservice to the kids. It didn’t help that all the kids were first year rookie players. While we had some rookie raw talent, our season was not as enjoyable or successful as it could have been had we had a smaller sized team.

My mistake was not cutting off the teams enrollment. The problem was this team practiced across the street from Omaha’s largest housing project and the kids had no other place to play football within walking distance. After the neighborhood kids saw our football practice the first day, more and more kids started showing up, begging to be on the team. I’m not very good at turning away kids in need, and these were kids that needed the program more than we needed them, so I took them all. The following year I had 3 teams and we got the coaches we needed to accommodate team sizes of about 25 or so.

Over time we experimented with various team sizes as my Organization grew to about 400 kids at 5 different fields. Some years we had groups that were too big for one team but not quite big enough to divide into 2 teams.

We have fielded teams as small as 17 players, but that is a very dangerous number. If 17 kids were there for every game you can make 17 work, but there are those problem games where one player is sick, another is injured and then you have one that gets held out for grades and you end up with just 14 players. You are in real trouble in our league if you show up with just 14 kids. Football practice is also a bear with teams this small, you have to run lots of half line drills and you have to cross train all your players to play other positions. Some coaches lose control of teams of this size because they feel they can not hold kids accountable to any kind of standard for fear of losing them. In this situation the inmates (players and parents) end up having the upper hand and chaos ensues.

We have found 24-25 players is the best number to start your season out with. We mix and match until we have that number now on about every team we field. On my personal teams, I usually lose 1 player before the season starts, they decide that football is not for them. As the season progresses we are usually missing 1 player per game due to injuries, sickness, grades etc. So most for games and practices we have about 22-23 kids available. To me this is the perfect number, 22 kids means I have 11 on 11 in our fit and freeze drills during football practice. We can run our football plays out against a scout defense of 11 players if we have 22 on the team.

I only need 3-5 coaches to effectively coach this group and playing time and attention to each individual youth football player is adequate. With a group this size I’m going to know what every player can do, they can each learn their football plays and there won’t be anyone slipping through the cracks. There won’t be any player that feels left out and my better players as well as my backups will get the reps and attention they need to become better youth football players.

In the rural area I now coach in, we take the first 24 kids that sign up to play, first come first served based on a flyer we send out at their school.

While many coaches have no input on team sizes, if you do have influence, do your best to lobby for a team size of 24-25. Your youth football coaching experience will be significantly more fun and productive with team sizes like this.
