	Boston College Eagles (7-3)

Shinskie lifts Boston College past Virginia, 14-10

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) Dave Shinskie's 1-yard sneak on fourth down gave Boston College the lead and the Eagles handed Virginia its fourth straight loss Saturday, 14-10.

The Eagles (7-3, 4-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) kept their hopes alive to win the ACC's Atlantic Division thanks to a 70-yard fourth-quarter drive that included two fourth-down conversions.

Boston College remains a half-game behind Clemson in the division race with two league games remaining. The Tigers have one league game remaining, at Virginia next week, and would clinch the title - and a berth in the ACC title game against Georgia Tech - with a victory. (MORE)
