Robichaux dominated the backfield in a game that Boston College needed badly.
Yesterday marked arguably the biggest win on the 2024 schedule for Boston College as the Eagles took down the Syracuse OrangeMuch can be gleaned from the win, but chiefly among those things is that Boston College now sits at just one win away from bowl eligibility and ensuring a .500 finish on the regular season - a big mark for Bill O'Brien and company in their first season and the helm.
Sure, it helps to be able to sling it around the yard, but if you're Boston College, it's simply not as necessary as it is for some teams. Thomas Castellanos exited the game following the opening drive of the second half, and BC never looked back. James did toss a touchdown in the win, and his 5/6 completion rate was good enough to allow BC to hold on to the lead.
Ezeiruaku finished the game tied for the team-high in sacks, again, with two. Plainly put, he's a grown man amongst boys at times, and that showed again on Saturday. Not only did the star edge rusher get to the Syracuse quarterback twice, but he also added a pass deflection to the stat sheet - a full day at the office for one of BC's NFL hopefuls.
