The Boston CollegeVirginia Tech rivalry is a football rivalry between two Atlantic Coast Conference schools.

The rivalry began in 1993 with a 48–34 Boston College win in Chestnut Hill when the two teams began Big East conference round-robin play. When the two schools moved to the Atlantic Coast Conference the rivalry continued with the two schools as cross-divisional rivals that play every year. The teams played twice in one season in both 2007 and 2008, as Boston College won the Atlantic division of the ACC in each of those years and Virginia Tech won the Coastal division. Although the Eagles defeated the Hokies in both the regular seasons of 2007 and 2008, Virginia Tech won both the 2007 ACC Championship Game and the 2008 ACC Championship Game contested between the two schools.

In men's basketball, the schools play two games against each other (home and away) every season.
