Projection: need to automatically qualify

Boston College’s position is rooted in a defense that has shown it can hang with better teams while the resume itself is a mix of promising moments and damaging setbacks. The Eagles proved they can win on the road with the victory at Temple and picked up comfortable home wins over Citadel and Harvard, but neutral-site defeats to Davidson and Tulane and a surprising loss to Central Connecticut have left the résumé thin on signature victories despite a competitive outing against LSU. The remainder of the schedule brings high-stakes road tests at Georgia Tech, Louisville, Clemson and Duke along with winnable home and neutral chances against NC State, Notre Dame, Stanford and California, so the committee view will depend on whether Boston College can convert those road opportunities into resume-building wins or instead pile up more damaging results.
