Head coach Jonathan Smith picked up his first loss in the green and white. It was going to happen sometime (it will likely happen again against No. 3 Ohio State next weekend). What stings is that this game was winnable.

Lynch-Adams brought it out from a yard deep and was drilled, resulting in a fumble Boston College recovered at the 5. The Spartans held the Eagles to a field goal but it was still a free three points before Chiles threw a pick on the next snap.
