The Eagles are poised and focused to make their first major bowl appearance in the BCS era. The streak of nine bowls in a row (with 8 consecutive wins) is a nice story, but I think many BC fans (and players) were would prefer a shot at the Orange Bowl vs. a win in a lower tier appearance.
Even the BC freshmen, including standout tailback Josh Haden, have a sense of how big an Orange Bowl appearance would be for the program.
The rematch against Virginia Tech in the 2008 ACC Championship game is eerily similar as the 2007 contest in Jacksonville. Despite winning the regular season match-up against the Hokies, the Eagles could not seal the deal on a sunny Florida afternoon in December.
This year, the Eagles recognize that they can't rely on Virginia Tech miscues as they did in the regular season game, but instead, must make their own opportunities - on both sides of the ball.
