What to know before Cal kicks off at Boston College in ACC opener
"Cal storylines: Playing their ACC opener, the Bears hit the road for the second week in a row and make the first of three cross-country treks for conference games. They play at Virginia Tech on Oct. 24, at Louisville on Nov. 8 . . . Coach Justin Wilcox said the Bears he could make lineup changes, especially on the offensive and wide receiver . . . Linebackers Cade Uluave (8.5) and Luke Ferrelli (8.3) are the sixth- and seventh- leading tacklers, respectively, in the ACC . . ."
"The Eagles lead the nation in passing yards (393.7 per game), with Alabama transfer and redshirt sophomore Dylan Lonergan quarterback throwing for 330.3 yards per outing to go with nine touchdowns and just one interception. Lonergan's favorite targets are WR Lewis Bond (NCAA-leading 9.67 receptions per game) and tight end Jeremiah Franklin . . . BC will play without injured starting CBs Syair Torrence and Amari Jackson and LB Dave Crouch is questionable."
