The Virginia Cavaliers open ACC play Saturday against the first-place Boston College Eagles. Yep, you read that right. BC is in first place in the ACC, at 1-0. Who’d they beat? Duke. Yep, Duke is in last place. That’s fun.
What does that tell us about BC? Or about Duke? Probably not very much. Mostly, what it tells us is that any road conference game is tough. BC was 2-16 in conference last year and 0-18 two years ago. Chances are, they haven’t all of a sudden become one of the best teams in the conference.
