When talking about the success of a team, what contributes to the magic, you’ll often find an X factor. What exactly is this elusive aspect that can make all the difference in the win/loss bracket. It can be anything from a player, combination of players or a coach and combination thereof. Sometimes it just seems like everything comes together and clicks just right.

Special guest, Mitch Wolfe of 247 Eagle Insider does a thorough job of breaking down the offense, defense and special teams of Boston College. One thing he spoke of that stood out slightly more than others was the head coach, Bill O’Brien. One listen and you’ll understand what O’Brien is bringing to the table for the Eagles.

The Eagles are often overlooked within the conference. Yet, they always seem to have NFL caliber players and are often a thorn in the side of teams that should by all measures be taking Boston College to the woodshed. Keep an eye out for the x factor on this team, if not this season definitely by next.
