Fordham defends the belt, 3–0, on the road at Boston College.
Where this game sits in the lineage
Fordham came in 324 days into reign #63, which began with a win over Bucknell, with 2 defenses already behind it; this was its third defense. Fordham went on to defend it 4 more times before Saint Mary's (CA) took it on November 15, 1930, 357 days after the reign began.
For Boston College this was its 3rd shot at the belt; it had never held the belt. It still hasn’t: 9 attempts in all, every one of them a loss or a tie.
This is the only time Boston College and Fordham have met with the belt on the line.
