Ryan throws four TDs as No. 7 Eagles breeze Bowling Green At Boston College Halftime Highlight Top 25 Overview It was over when... Coach Jags took the reigns off Boston College's offense. His arrival has led to a flurry of high-scoring games for the Eagles, and Saturday's 61-point effort was a season high. Gameball goes to... Matt Ryan. BC's senior QB added to his Heisman resume, completing his second four-touchdown game of the season. He finished with over 300 yards of total offense and no interceptions. Stat of the game... 392. Boston College gave up 455 yards of total offense to Bowling Green, 392 of which came in the air. The Eagles entered the game with the 99th ranked pass defense in the country. BOSTON (AP) -- Matt Ryan threw four touchdown passes and Boston College pulled away with four interceptions late in the first half to overwhelm Bowling Green 55-24 Saturday and get off to its best start in 65 years. The No. 7 Eagles entered the game with their highest ranking in 23 years after two unimpressive wins over Army and Massachusetts. There was nothing questionable about Saturday's rout as Boston College (6-0) scored 38 straight points after Tyler Sheehan's 6-yard pass to Freddie Barnes with 8:55 left in the half cut BC's lead to 14-10. Less than seven minutes later, it was 38-10 as the Falcons pass-happy offense backfired when BC picked off four passes in the last six minutes of the half. Two were returned for touchdowns -- 65 yards by Jamie Silva and 7 yards by Nick Larkin -- and another led to a career-long 45-yard field goal by Steve Aponavicius. The Eagles were well on the way to their 16th straight home victory. The half ended with BC leading 38-10, with Andre Callender scoring three touchdowns. The big plays kept coming against Bowling Green (3-2). On the seventh play of the second half, Ryan hit Justin Jarvis along the right sideline and the wide receiver sprinted for a 71-yard touchdown. Ryan finished 24-for-32 for 312 yards before Chris Crane took over on BC's first series of the fourth quarter. For the season, Ryan has thrown for 15 touchdowns and five interceptions.

keep on rolling, big game (sort of) next weekend then we got some time off before possibly the biggest stretch of games in BC history
YEAH BC!!! When i was in the US, i went to BC vs Clemson. They won in double overtime by blocking an extra point.
gonna be a tough game when my seminoles go up there, hopefully X lee is still playing and drew weatherford gets hit by a bus so he has no reason to come in.
after his game this week, X man is the obvious option. ive been clamoring for him to start since he got here, and then lost my faith the beginning of this year cause I figured if he cant beat out Weatherford, whats his deal? but guess i was right. i love the way hes playing right now. the guyis shifty and runs strong too, rare for a qb. not to mwention hes got some nice zip. that TD to carr was all Carr though. but the first long ball was nasty. downright perfect.
