TheGreen Line Rivalry, also known as theB-Line Rivalry,^[1]^[2] theBattle of Boston^[3] andBattle of Commonwealth Avenue,^[4] is the name for thesports rivalry betweenBoston College andBoston University.^[5]^[6]^[7] The rivalry is named after theGreen Line, a light rail line that runs alongCommonwealth Avenue and links the two schools as part of theMBTA,Boston's public transit system. The two campuses lie less than five miles apart.

The Green Line Rivalry is considered one of the top rivalries in college sports^[8]^[9] and first among college hockey rivalries.^[10]^[11]

History

[edit]

The series dates to February 6, 1918, when BU first began playing hockey,^[12] and played its lone game that year against BC, a 3–1 loss at theBoston Arena.^[12] Since then, no other opponent has appeared on either teams' schedule more often.^[12] The rivalry has been renewed annually since the 1946–47 season, and the two teams have met at least twice a year since 1949. The schools have met 297 times; BU leads the series 140–136–21.

With 18NCAA championship game appearances between them,^[13] including a matchup in the1978 championship game, Boston College and Boston University both field perennially competitive collegiateice hockey teams. They compete in theHockey East since 1984, having both previously been members of theECAC since 1961.

The two teams meet thrice annually as part of their regular Hockey East season schedule, and often also meet in the Hockey East and NCAA postseason tournaments. Additionally, each first and second Monday in February, BC and BU, along withHarvard andNortheastern, take part in the annualBeanpot Tournament held atTD Garden, where the Eagles and Terriers often square off in the championship game. In the 70 years of the tournament, the two teams have played for the Beanpot trophy 22 times, with BU winning 12 of the championship matchups and BC winning 10. Both teams have had stretches where they dominated the tournament, however, the Terriers have triumphed more often, winning the title 31 times compared to the Eagles' 20 titles (Harvard and Northeastern combined have only won 19 times). The Eagles defeated the Terriers 1–0 in overtime of the 2016 Beanpot championship.

Both teams have won thenational championship five times; BC in 1949, 2001, 2008, 2010, 2012 and BU in 1971, 1972, 1978, 1995, 2009. The two rivals faced off in the1978 championship game in Providence, with BU claiming its third national championship with a 5–3 victory inProvidence, RI. BU and BC have met in NCAA tournament play on one other occasion in the2006 NCAA Men's Division I Ice Hockey Tournament Northeast Regional Final, with the Eagles skating to a 5–0 victory over the top-seeded Terriers.

The rivalry is highlighted by its intensity and mutual contempt between both players and fans. For instance, after BU's victory over BC in the 1978 national championship, BU co-captain Jack O'Callahan was quoted as saying "We shouldn't have to beat BC for the nationals. Hell, we can do that anytime."^[14] In a 2005Sports Illustrated article, BC senior captainRyan Shannon said that "Every once in a while, out in a restaurant, you see familiar faces. But hockey culture is so humble. Outside the rink, you see those guys as human beings," but when the on the rink: "They're evil. They're a Terrier."^[15] Games feature an array of chants and insults chanted by each schools' students sections, the BC Superfans and BU Dog Pound.

The rivalry was amplified when on January 8, 2010, BC and BU faced off atFenway Park, the first men's college hockey game to be played at Boston's iconic ballpark. BU edged BC 3–2 in front of a crowd of 38,000, the largest crowd to ever watch the two schools play.

A documentary about the rivalry entitledThe Battle of Comm Ave. was released in 2009 by Rival Films. The documentary contains game footage and interviews with numerous players and coaches.^[16]

On November 8, 2013, the teams faced off in the first nonYork–Parker matchup since 1994. The Eagles defeated theDavid Quinn-led Terriers 5–1 at Agganis Arena. Parker retired in the 2012–13 offseason after 40 years of coaching the Terriers.

During the 2020–21 season, Agganis Arena was unavailable for play, as it was being used for stateCOVID-19 pandemic purposes. Thus on February 6, 2021, Walter Brown Arena served as host for a matchup for the first time since January 17, 2004, where the Terries skated to a 3–1 win over No. 1-ranked Boston College.

On December 9, 2022, the Eagles and Terriers met in the first matchup since 1972 that did not include at least one of Jerry York or Jack Parker as head coach of their respective team. York retired in the 2021–22 offseason after 50 years of coaching. BC, led byGreg Brown defeated BU by a score of 9–6 at Conte Forum.

The 2023–24 season saw historic matchups between the two rivals. In their 292nd and 293rd all-time meetings on January 26–27, 2024, the schools battled for the first time as both the 1st and 2nd ranked teams in the country. No. 2-ranked Boston College hosted the No. 1 ranked Terriers at Conte Forum in the opener of the home-and-home series, skating to 4–1 victory.^[17] BU hosted the Eagles at Agganis Arena the following night, with Boston College taking a 4–3 victory to earn the weekend sweep. The No. 3-ranked Terriers would avenge their losses just a week later on February 5 by defeating the No. 1-ranked Eagles in the first round of theBeanpot, by a score of 4–3. The two teams would meet for a 4th time in theHockey East championship game on March 23, once again as the No. 1 and No. 2 ranked teams in the nation. The top-ranked Eagles would skate away with the victory to earn their 12th Hockey East title, after beating BU by a score of 6–2.^[18]

Football

[edit]

"The Green Line Rivalry" originally referred to thefootball rivalry between the schools, a series begun in 1893^[20] and played annually from 1928 to 1942 and 1954 to 1962.^[20] In the 1954 to 1962 run of games both teams competed for theSacred Cod Trophy in a round-robin series withHoly Cross. With BC leading the series 27–4–1, BU discontinued the rivalry after the 1962 season;^[20] a game was scheduled to be played atFenway Park in 1963 but was scrapped due to theJohn F. Kennedy assassination and no further games were scheduled in the years that followed.^[21] BU eventually terminated its football program in 1997.^[22]

Theclub football team at Boston University expressed interest in renewing the football Green Line Rivalry with Boston College, possibly with ajunior varsity team, in the 2015 season; it did not materialize.^[23]
