The Boston College Eagles had to come from behind, but rallied to beat the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers, 21-20. Grayson James got the nod at quarterback for the injured Thomas Castellanos and completed 19-32 passes for 179 total yards and threw the game-winning touchdown to his high school teammate, Jerand Bradley with just over 3 minutes left in the game. Donovan Ezeiruaku had an amazing game, with a career-high 14.0 total tackles, 4 tackles for loss and 3 sacks in the win. Ezeiruaku's 3rd sack also provided a forced fumble that directly led to the game-winning score for Bill O'Brien's squad.
