When looking for a weak spot on this 2007 Boston College team, none seem to exist. Every unit has a vast array of key returning personnel. The secondary may have some issues in terms of underachievement, ranking only ahead of Duke in conference passing defense. But guys like DeJuan Tribble and Jamie Silva back in the line up make this an area certain to improve by leaps and bounds. The LB crew (all seniors) represents some of the finest the ACC has to offer. The entire defense has experience and depth at every position. Offensively, QB Matt Ryan proved to be the top passer in a conference lacking a big time QB. While he won't earn any preseason All-American recognition (nor will any ACC QB), he is just good enough to propel this team into the front of the ACC Atlantic pack with Wake Forest. This will be the fourth season in a row both RBs (Whitworth and Callender) are due to share duties with great success. BC still lacks a big time receiver, an issue, though, that has never detracted this offense from success since joining the league. This offense is just good enough to make up the difference with efficiency and balance. The OL has taken great pride with a tradition of large sized blockers. While this group will continue to be a positive, the loss of Josh Beekman and James Marten (both All-ACC selections) cannot be overlooked. A 9-3 finish in 2006 should be considered a decent year by school standards. However, the Eagles can set their sights much higher as a new season rolls around. This means anything less than getting to the ACC Championship Game should not be an option. This team is stacked with experience.
