Week 8 of the college football season is poised to deliver two thrilling matchups on Thursday. The evening will kick off with a Sun Belt conference matchup between Georgia State Panthers and the Marshall Thundering Herd in Huntington, West Virginia, setting the stage for the highly anticipated showdown between the Boston College Eagles and the Virginia Tech Hokies.
Boston College has a 4-2 record and is coming off a bye week. The Eagles recently suffered a tough 24-14 loss against Virginia, but quarterback Thomas Castellanos had a strong effort. He completed 22 of 30 attempts for 254 yards and two touchdowns, though he did throw two interceptions.
The Hokies, also off a bye week, go into the Atlantic Coast Conference matchup against Boston College on a high note after a 31-7 win over Stanford, which broke a two-game losing streak. Quarterback Kyron Drones was the standout player of the game, completing 14 of 19 attempts for 201 yards and two touchdowns, while also scoring one on the ground. Now, Virginia Tech will look to extend its winning streak as it hosts Boston College in Blacksburg.
