Boston College erupted for 28 second-half points to overwhelm Syracuse 34-12 inside the JMA Wireless Dome. After a tight first half that ended in a 6-6 tie, the Eagles dominated with four rushing touchdowns, including two each from Turbo Richard and Jordan McDonald. Richard's explosive 46-yard touchdown run early in the fourth quarter put the game out of reach as the Orange managed just one late touchdown from Dan Villari in the final minutes.
