Have to say it was the most complete game in all three phases since Daz has been here. They are now 24-2 when LEADING at the half in the Daz era as opposed to 2-27 when TRAILING. That takeaway is that everyone should head into the stadium for the first half of a game and then hit the tailgates/bars, etc for the second half.
UVA looked totally overmatched all game. Hard to figure where they got 5 wins but BC is beginning to make a statement that’s for sure.
As to the future, no one on left on the schedule is unbeatable. As stated above they get FSU with three losses and coming off a loss at ‘Ville, a bye then NC State, UConn and ‘Cuse. All but Syracuse are in Boston so there is no travel. Could they go 8-4? Sure but they don’t do well at Syracuse so 7-5 May be a bit more realistic with 6-6 most likely.
Still not thrilled with their D despite yesterday. They are playing 3 teams with good offenses. If they go 8-4 they will be in the hunt for a decent bowl ( my feeling is the Pinstripe against maybe Michigan, Minn or Nebraska?). Otherwise they end up in Annapolis against an AAC team (UCF, USF, Memphis, SMU??).
If they get bowl eligible Daz is still around. But decisions will have to be made after next season. Daz will only have 2 years left on his deal and you really can’t have an effective recruiting cycle when the HC has less than 3 years on his contract. Not good long term for the program. I think we have seen enough of Daz to know what we have. His ceiling is 8 wins and he hasn’t got that yet.
