Our backups are not very good. Only should be seeing Rose and the other guy if AJ gets hurt. Otherwise ride with Hairston.

Couldn't have said it better myself Insider!

I was encouraged by how the defense played overall so hopefully they can continue their progress this week.

I’m sorry but Brandon rose is not an FBS quality starter. The offense was pathetic before Hairston came on. Too bad because I thought the defense played pretty inspired, just got no help.

Hairston’s knee was down before he threw it. They reviewed it and got the call right. Then he got bull rushed on 4th down, no chance.

Such a UMass way to end this game. Unreal.

If your eyes work it’s not a debate. Start Hairston please!

I think we had a legit chance of winning if Hairston had started. The offense actually moves the ball with him in. What is Coach H seeing in practice? I don’t get it, Rose does nothing.

Right Floyd.

It’s moronic football Steve.

Also, like I have said Hairston should be starting. Coach H seems to have his head up his ass.

Kick the ball! Then you go for it and throw a fade?!! Dumb dumb football.

Coach H has me scratching my head. Waits to go down 14-3 before putting in Hairston.

I think I’ve seen enough of Brandon Rose. Put in Hairston please.

Can we get an updated kickoff weather report? How’s it looking in Amherst?

Chamber of Commerce weather out there Camby. Let’s go boys, let’s put some more points on the board, so far so good.

Frustrating the amount of self inflicted dumb mental errors the Sox made in Game 2 and Game 3. It was a continuation of what we saw all year from this team. I like Cora as man and a leader but I feel like it may be time to part ways, this team played a dumb brand of baseball this year and it's been ...

Keep playing Hairston, still think he gives us the best shot at winning with him a QB.

Crochet was incredible. Hit 100 mph on his final 117th pitch. Even those I’m a Sox fan, nothing better for Baseball than having a big playoff game in the Bronx between the biggest rivals in sports.
