Boston College came to Death Valley in Clemson as a major underdog against the top team in the country, even after Tigers starting quarterback Trevor Lawrence was ruled out due to a positive COVID-19 test, but the Eagles played a perfect first half to put Clemson on upset watch.
ESPN commentator Joe Tessitore had the call, and got to watch his son, John Tessitore, who is a holder for Boston College. With the Eagles up 21-10 late in the first half and inside the red zone, Boston College ran a fake field goal play, with Tessitore running up to play quarterback from his position waiting to catch the snap.
The Clemson defense jumped, giving Boston College a 1st-and-10, and the Eagles cashed in on the next play with a wild CJ Lewis touchdown catch.
This was so awesome. Listen to Joe Tessitore on the call while his son John – the BC holder – draws Clemson offsides on a fake field goal attempt, leading to a TD on the next play. You can hear how proud Tess is of his son. What it’s all about 🙌 pic.twitter.com/oexRgM7zzl
