The Eagles, who were seeking their elusive eighth win of the season, wound up having their bowl game against No. 23 Boise State interrupted in the first quarter by lightning after BC had taken a 7-0 lead on A.J. Dillon’s 19-yard touchdown run with 5:08 remaining.
After a delay of about 1½ hours, repeated lightning strikes in the area, coupled with a severe weather forecast, prompted bowl officials to cancel the game, officially ruling it no contest.
