Boston College quarterback Thomas Castellanos will miss the upcoming game against Western Kentucky due to an injury, making way for Grayson James to start for the Eagles. Castellanos, who has led BC to a 3-1 start this season, has thrown for 729 yards with 10 touchdowns and two interceptions. James, a transfer from Florida International, brings experience to the starting role.
The Eagles also have depth at running back, with Kye Robichaux’s status uncertain for the game. Treshaun Ward and Turbo Richard have stepped up in Robichaux’s absence, contributing to the team’s success. BC’s defense has been strong in the red zone, allowing only four touchdowns on 14 trips compared to their opponents’ three touchdowns on 10 trips.
Coach Bill O’Brien is confident that the Eagles will be ready for a tough challenge against Western Kentucky, who have won three straight games after a blowout loss to Alabama in their opener. O’Brien emphasizes the importance of being prepared for every game and not underestimating any opponent.
The game against Western Kentucky will be broadcast on the ACC Network, with kickoff set for noon on Saturday. With James stepping up as the starting quarterback and the team’s strong defense, BC looks to continue their successful start to the season.
