Hopefully, this is a stat correction game for us.


I wanna drop 50+ on their dome, move to Buffalo on the highest of highs to even have a shot at one of the dozen MACC scenarios.

I thought the 2024 Kent State team was the worst team in the history of the MAC. Then along comes 2025 umASS.

I'm serious. If we don't even beat UMass at home, it will be the worst gut punch of the year as a Bobcats fan imo.

Just a little self deprecating humor, making the most of a bad situation. I don't have an issue with it.

Remember Duquesne, or Northeastern in the last Knorr year. Don't take anything for granted. Go OHIO!

I said this decade which rules out Northeastern. Duquesne wasn't a conference game and especially not a conference game with a berth in Detroit on the line.

Goal should be QB and both RB's are riding the pines no later than the first series of the third quarter. No FG attempts and practice a few two point conversions as the experience might come in handy in an upcoming game.

ESPN comes back to YTTV just in time for this week's game (and maybe next week's) to be carried by CBSSN,. At least subscribers get a $20 refund for November.

Dukes and Huskies are better than the Minutemen. Heck, so are the 1994 0-11 'Cats.

FCS Bryant (3-8) beat them and NIU's hapless offense ran wild. Final home game, stuff to play for, MACtion ... will be fine.

In MAC play he's 7 of 10 in FGs, 5 of 5 in PATs. UMass has more FGs in MAC play (7) than TDs (5).

Seems to me I remember earlier this season UMass had a lead over another MAC team until the final minute, when they blew it. They may be bad, but on any given Saturday, er Tuesday, you never know!

It was Buffalo, Ohio's next opponent.

40 degrees and steady rain against the worst team in College Football on a Tuesday night. This could be one of the worst crowds we have had in a long time. I know for me, I could go schedule-wise but I can't get motivated to leave work early and do the drive for that. I rarely choose feet up on the couch over Athens but it is winning tonight.

Maybe their whole NIL went to a Kicker... and fireworks.

We're right there with ya. Haven't missed a single home game this year but this weather and opponent are just too much to make the drive down with work in the morning. Especially with this one potentially being decided early.

I'm planning to go, but I will probably spend most of my time inside the Sook Academic Center looking out the glass doors and at the monitor. What a wimp I am!
