College Football’s Top 50 Fanbases

45. Boston College

The good

Boston College has rich tradition, claiming a spot among the games most storied programs.

The bad

The days of Boston College being a national title contender are long gone. The transition from the Big East to the ACC has taken the program down a notch or two on the national stage. With Steve Addazio gone, they’re back to square one.

The bottom line

No one can take away BC’s rich history. What the Eagles were able to accomplish from the mid-1980s to the early 2000s has been forever written into college football history. That’s the program for this program, though, that history has come and gone. In the new world, Boston College is stuck in the midst of a handful of ACC program with similar storylines and hasn’t done much to distinguish themselves from the rest.

Being geographically offset from the heart of the sport, BC fans deserve recognition for their stalwart committed to the program. As success has come and gone, this fanbase has stuck it out, ready to celebrate when those high points come around.
