As we very vividly remember, the 2022 Boston College Eagles were exceptionally young. In fact, the two-deep featured 34 underclassmen, including nine starters, which was the most in the conference. The offense had five true freshman log a healthy amount of real game time. Alex Broome was the team’s second leading rusher, Cam Barfield logged 25 carries, Joe Griffin Jr. electrified in the back half of the season on the receiving front, tight end Jeremiah Franklin played in nearly every game, and lineman Jude Bowry even started two games.
Now a lot of that was due to injuries and a team that just didn’t feature much depth.
