New Faces Shine in Boston College’s Loss | Boston College Football News

Boston College’s season opener ended in a tough 34-15 loss to Cincinnati, but the debut showcased flashes of promise from their loaded roster of 50 new players. QB Mason McKenzie, a Division II transfer, stood out with 78 rushing yards, a touchdown, and two-point conversion, while also throwing for over 200 yards and a score—despite shaky offensive line protection. Running back Evan Dickens and receiver Javarius Green also made key contributions, and linebacker Anthony Palano led the defense with 12 tackles. Though the team struggled with false starts and missed tackles, coach Bill OBrien acknowledged the need to better support McKenzie—and the newcomers’ early performances hint at potential as the season unfolds.
