Could Boston College find themselves in the bright lights of New York City or the honorable grounds of the United States Naval Academy? Might it also be some part unknown to this program in El Paso or Tampa Bay, or yes, even Detroit?

This is a good problem to have. At least we know there will be a game, and soon, we will examine the possible landing spots, but for now, where do the college football pundits send Boston College?

(Please note: It is our wish that someday, the ACC will have a tie-in to the Bahamas Bowl.)

Brant Parsons of the Sentinel is also on-board with sending Boston College to the Pinstripe Bowl. At that game, the Eagles would face the Rutgers Scarlet Knights, a former Big East foe that happened to lose said bowl game last season to Notre Dame. There are probably a few older Eagles fans who would want a crack at Rutgers again, but if they don’t beat Indiana after their bye to get to 6-4, they may never get their sixth win.
