Boston College football: Go Eagles

"For Boston" is one of the oldest fight songs in college football, and it still rings out over Alumni Stadium every fall Saturday on the Heights. The Red Bandanna Game, honoring BC alumnus and 9/11 hero Welles Crowther, is one of the most meaningful traditions in the sport. Eagles fans know how to make a road trip out of an ACC schedule.
