Five Takeaways from Bill O'Brien's Virginia Tech Postgame Press Conference
Summary
-
Against Virginia Tech, Boston College quarterback Mason McKenzie ran 26 times for 138 yards and two touchdowns and went 11-for-23 for 111 passing yards. He briefly left after a hit and returned; Bill O'Brien praised his toughness but gave no diagnosis, future workload or availability guarantee.
-
Boston College went 2-for-13 on third down versus Virginia Tech; O'Brien said the Hokies mixed looks BC had not expected and that BC needed better responses. The Eagles scored touchdowns on both red-zone trips after going 0-for-5 versus Maine; this is a game-specific correction, not a new package.
-
O'Brien said Boston College's tackling declined in the fourth quarter after holding Virginia Tech to six points through three quarters. Jeffrey Overton Jr. broke a 76-yard touchdown run and gained 140 of his 209 rushing yards in the fourth; no defender replacement or scheme change was announced.
