Friday the 13th. Full moon. Boston College football. A recipe for weirdness.

Favored by 21 points, the Eagles (2-0), for the second straight week, took less than three minutes to score a touchdown in their Friday night game against Kansas (1-1). By the end of the first quarter, BC led 17-7 and had gained 153 yards in offense. AJ Dillon had already gained 82 yards and scored a touchdown.

The first quarter was the only good quarter for the Eagles.

At halftime, BC had gained another 160 yards for a first-half total of 313 and Dillon was up to 128 yards rushing. Kansas, however, had exploded for 204 yards in the second quarter (310 yards total offense for the half), and 21 points to lead the Eagles at halftime, 28-24.

Halftime adjustments! Halftime adjustments? BC could not counter the trends set by Kansas in the second quarter. The Eagles did not score in the second half, but allowed Kansas another 257 yards offense and 20 points. Final score: Kansas 48, BC 24.

Against Coastal Carolina the previous week, Kansas had scored seven points against the Chanticleers and lost 12-7. The Jayhawks gained a total of 280 yards in that game. The win against BC was Kansas’ first on the road against a Power 5 conference team since 2008.

Dillon rushed for another 23 yards in the second half for a game total of 151 yards. Quarterback Anthony Brown threw for 195 yards and one touchdown, completing 18 of 36 passes. Brown also scored a touchdown on a pass reception.
