Qb Murphy Carries Bc Past Umass, 30-7

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Tyler Murphy ran for 118 yards and a touchdown, carrying Boston College to a 30-7 victory over in-state rival Massachusetts on Saturday in the season opener for both schools. Murphy, a graduate transfer who played nine games for Florida last season before missing the final three with a sprained throwing shoulder, also completed 17 of 24 passes for 173 yards and threw for a TD and an interception. The game was billed as the "Battle of the Bay State" and played at the home of the New England Patriots, where Massachusetts will play half of its home schedule this season. Blake Frohnapfel completed 9 of 22 passes for 147 yards for the Minutemen, including a 77-yard scoring toss to Tajae Sharpe. It was coach Mark Whipple's first game of his second stint at UMass.
