The Boston College Eagles football  team represents Boston College  in the sport of American football . The Eagles compete in the Football Bowl Subdivision  (FBS) of the National Collegiate Athletic Association  (NCAA) and the Atlantic Division  of the Atlantic Coast Conference  (ACC). Begun in 1892, Boston College's football team was one of six "Major College" football programs in New England  as designated by NCAA classifications, starting in 1938.[2]  By 1981, and for the remainder of the twentieth century, BC was New England's sole Division I-A program.[3]  It has amassed a 624–444–37 record and is 99–54 since the turn of the 21st century.

Steve Addazio  is currently the team's head coach. Boston College is one of only two Catholic  universities that field a team in the Football Bowl Subdivision, the other being Notre Dame . The Eagles' home games are played at Alumni Stadium  on the Boston College campus in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts . In addition to success on the gridiron, Boston College football teams are consistently ranked among the nation's best for academic achievement[4]  and graduation.[5]  In 2005, 2006 and 2007, the football team's Academic Progress Rate  was the highest of any school that finished the season ranked in the AP  or ESPN/USA Today  Coaches'  polls.

The Holy Cross Crusaders football  team is the collegiate American football  program of the College of the Holy Cross  in Worcester, Massachusetts . The team is a member of the Patriot League , an NCAA Division I  conference that participates in Football Championship Subdivision  (FCS). The team plays their home games at Fitton Field .

In 1896, Holy Cross and Boston College  played the first football game between the two schools, starting the Boston College–Holy Cross football rivalry . For much of the early to mid 20th century, BC and The Cross drew some of New England 's largest sports crowds. To accommodate larger crowds, the Holy Cross game was routinely held at larger venues off campus, with the 1916 matchup taking place at the newly constructed Fenway Park . A record 54,000 attended the 1922 game at Braves Field , home of the Boston Braves  baseball team. On November 28, 1942, Holy Cross beat BC in a huge upset 55–12. The game is still the most famous between the two foes, not only for its result (which spoiled BC's undefeated season) but also its aftermath. The Eagles had booked their victory party that night at the popular Cocoanut Grove nightclub in Boston, but canceled after the loss. As a result, the BC team was absent when the club caught fire , killing nearly 500.

But fortune did not always favor the Crusaders, and the series was suspended in 1986 after BC had won 17 games over a 20 year span. After an over three decade hiatus, the series will resume in 2018 as Holy Cross once again travels to Chestnut Hill to take on Boston College. The series will continue into the future, with a rematch already scheduled for 2020.
