The Boston College–Holy Cross football rivalry is an American college football rivalry between the Boston College Eagles and Holy Cross Crusaders. Though the rivalry has been largely dormant since the 1980s, it was once contested annually as a season-ending game that "determined the best team in New England", as one player recalled. As of 2018, even after not playing each other for more than 30 years, each school was still the other's all-time most-played football opponent. The two teams have met 83 times; Boston College leads the series 49–31–3. They last played in 2018, after a 32-year hiatus, and were scheduled to meet again in 2020, but the meeting was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
