The post on Twitter you read that from was being facetious

Did you see the fine print? By then the stadium needs to hold 35K and Umass needs to be a double digit ranked team meaning better than #100.

No way they play that game - and I will even use the Stadium as the excuse not the ranking.

^ And here I thought that BC was working it's way towards the MAC. My bad for speed reading.

Where was this fine print? That is hopeful.

If we're still around, I'll look forward to a beer with you then!

UConn series "officially" extended. Next year will be a neutral site game (Fenway, maybe?).

Next season’s date, November 25, is the Saturday after Thanksgiving and two (2) weeks before Army-Navy at Gillette. Perhaps using this game as a dry run for Army-Navy….

It's possible, but Gillette sorta holds football on the regular... I can't envision them needing a dry run.

^ Maybe it's me, but I don't see eastern New England fans giving a sh*t about a UMass-puke-on football game. The series should alternate between McGuirk and Rentschler

It's not just you... I agree. But if it was part of getting the series locked in, that's fine by me and that is value enough. I'm still hopeful this translates to a renewed b-ball series.

^ 100%!

Agreed LS but just to play devil's advocate, if both teams are decent next year, it may draw the casual EMass - UMass and UConn alum in. We all know how dominant our alumni numbers are inside 495 compared to any other school in the state but UConn has a decent amount of alumni in Eastern Mass as well. I'd love for both programs to have 6+ wins going into this meeting next year.

At this point, let's just hope that "The Problem" still shows up... Although, given the season that he is having and in contrast the season that Casula is having..... it's a toss up at best. The venue and attendance will take care of itself.

Realize the administration will do what the deem best, but someone on the MAC board posted 2025 schedule and what we think.

08/30 - Temple
09/06 - at Boston College
09/27 - Troy
10/18 - at Missouri
11/01 - at Liberty
11/15 - at Iowa
11/22 - at Army
11/29 - at UConn

Liberty and Army are probably gone. Now I'm torn with Boston College. Like playing them but strongly dislike their attitude. We are having a home and home with an SEC team. Boston College is in the ACC, which is a full level down in CFP playoffs. Hope in the next 1 or 2 we have a stadium upgrade proposal pass. Then would like to see a 3 game series, home (ON friggin' campus BC!) , away at BC, and neutral site Gillette. With this attitude, like to push out the BOSTON College game, keep the 2 home OOC games, keep the money game Iowa, and UConn. We still will not have an FCS game thou and hope we can push out the Missouri game. I'm not you guys, but as long as we have Boston College or UConn on the schedule every year, then it is a big bonus to have on an occasion both.

With the above schedule, think we will be bowling in 2025.
However, we may need to bump out the Iowa game because of MACtion weekday games and Missouri not wanting to move the game.
