What is the Perfect Start to the 2025 Boston College Football Season: The Rundown

With the 2025 college football season set to officially kick off this weekend, every team in the country is dreaming of what its own perfect start looks like - especially if you're a Boston College fan.

That's because there's a realistic chance that BC walks into a ranked mid-season matchup with Clemson a perfect 5-0, and it's not a big stretch to see how it could happen.

Just take a glance at the schedule.

First up, there's Fordham, which will be a forgone conclusion.

Week two sees the Eagles take on Michigan State in what will be the first true test of the season.

At one point this offseason, I said that this game was a toss up, but the addition of Dylan Lonergan under center completely changes the potential of the BC offense for the better, and it makes me feel as though they should come into that game as a favorite, even if it is on the road.

Then, the Eagles head across the country to take on Stanford, and unless Frank Reich has turned that team into his old Indianapolis Colts, BC should be a heavy favorite there, too, before taking a week off for a bye.

Then, Cal visits town with a roster that was depleted via the transfer portal last season.

That makes Boston College 4-0 and squarely in the hunt for a top 25 spot.

All of this comes to a head against Pitt, who touts one of the best defensive rosters in the ACC from a talent perspective.

If BC can pull that win off, it will find itself squarely inside the top 25 with a whirlwind of momentum behind it before hosting Clemson.

I'm not saying that would be a win, but anything can happen in college football.
