Even with the football team’s early struggles this season, the atmosphere at Alumni Stadium, especially from the students, has been electric so far. That’s sure to go up a notch at kickoff on Saturday, as it was announced last night that #5 Clemson’s trip to BC on Saturday will be ABC’s primetime kickoff, at 7:30 PM:

The Tigers are coming off a 30-20 win last night over #10 NC State. They will probably remain at #5 this week given that the top 4 all won, but they will come in with a lot of positive momentum after that victory.

The Eagles will also be hoping to build off a victory, with yesterday’s 34-33 victory featuring big plays on offense, defense and special teams.

It’ll be another primetime spotlight for BC’s annual Red Bandana Game, and of course the primetime network television billing against a top-10 team will conjure up memories of the best one...
