Dayton did to FSU at home what they would probably do to us. And that's a compliment to Dayton, not a knock on UMass.

It sounded to me that the Gator fans were rooting for UMass as they rolled in for the second game.

DHS, Banks and Bettiol should thrive in the MAC.

As bad as it is this year, the ACC is still considered a P4 conference, so Duke would not be a G5 team. However, their opponent would be a free square in your bowl pool.

It was actually a reasonably fair story, unlike the gratuitous shots Shaughnessy takes. It was written by a news reporter, not sports.

Remember that it's still going to be a night game!

Buffalo bills themselves as New York's SUNY flagship campus, and they are members of the AAU, which we have not yet been able to achieve. Ohio is a good school, but I think UBuffalo is a better model for a MAC partner.

OK so I'm sad. I looked for a local preview article for tonight's game. Nothing from the Gazette, nothing from the Collegian.

The Collegian is trying. They usually offer a couple of things after each game, especially home. Just a little bummed that they didn't produce something for arguably our ...

The biggest negative tonight was giving up 26 points off turnovers. Gotta work on that. After VCU and maybe Dayton and GMU, the rest of the A10 is a crapshoot.

They get a week off now. Frank's practices appear to be bearing fruit, so maybe this is a good thing.

^ Wow, I forgot all about that. That explains why the game preview on the GW website said UMass and GW are the only charter members. The A10 opponents I will miss the most are GW, URI and St. Joe's.

Lot of history here as fellow A10 charter member GW visits Amherst for the last time in conference play. When UMass leaves for the MAC, the only remaining charter members of the Eastern Eight, the A10's forerunner, will be GW and Duquesne. Many great memories, especially the Calipari-Jarvis years ...

Let's dispense with the Liam Coen speculation. Liam has done such a good job as Tampa Bay OC that he is now in the conversation for an NFL head coaching job.
