Re: Game Six: UConn
The team looked like they really wanted it the whole game. Other than some stale play calling, they did exactly what they needed to do to win. No big mistakes and solid D. The team looks motivated despite being made into a joke this week, good on them.
Re: Game Six: UConn
I am really enjoying UConn fans lamenting their team and status of their program on the way out.

Very happy!
Bell is still a terrible coach. Did you hear him making the same excuses about scholarship numbers and having a scout team last fall during the post-game on field interview...

Re: Game Six: UConn
Happy to get a win, especially against UConn. Merriweather and the O-Line deserve a lot of credit, and the defense made some good plays too. It wasn't beautiful, but it sure beats losing.
It was genius to have #14 and #29 constantly shifting #69. I'm sure that confused the hell out of UConn and was a big factor in the victory.

Re: Game Six: UConn
Three things that made me happy:
1) The UM students storming (don’t get to use it much - not finding a replacement)
2) UM police not doing anything to stop them!
3) VERY KEY
The UM students WANTING to storm ( still using it) the field !!

Re: Game Six: UConn
Finally a win. I watched the first half and then we went out to dinner with us behind 10 - 7. Did get home in time to see the last 8 minutes of the game with us leading. The team sure deserves a victory.
Re: Game Six: UConn
Two observations:
1. I'm impressed with the student leadership of The Reindeer. Hockey fans will know who I mean.
2. Several times UConn snapped when our guys were not nearly ready. They were very slow to react to the no huddle, and at times 3-4 of them were still looking at our sidelines for the incessant signaling. What is up with that?

Re: Game Six: UConn
At the game. Key to me was no UMass turnovers, the one fumble was recovered, surrounded by UConn fans who slumped the last 8 minutes or so - fun to see.
A buddy who came with me who is a big USF alum and fan said he had never seen so few different plays called by UMass - especially runs that seemed to be the same 2 or 3 calls all day. He also has now attended 6 UConn games, all losses, FWIW.
Nice to see the undergrad enthusiasm after the win.

Feeling entitled is JUST a feeling...
Re: Game Six: UConn
Congrats to Coach Bell. Nice video of him and the players celebrating afterwards. He’s now tied for second all time in wins since the program moved up to FBS
UMass Football: 22-3 at home when I was a student.

Really proud of the program.
Re: Game Six: UConn
Congrats to the team. No idea if it was a well-played game, but a W is a W. Stats that stick out include 407 yards to 291 and a time of possession of about 39 minutes to 21. Pretty cool that the fans rushed the field. How many of you guys were out there?
Watched the Texas A&M win over Bama and their fans also stormed the field. Difficult to distinguish between the two scenes They did note that there will be a $150K fine from the NCAA for the A&M storming. It would be just our luck that the NCAA would conceive our post-game celebration at the same level as the Aggies.
Also noted a commercial after the A&M game by the NCAA showing a three-second snippet from each NCAA championship and included a UMass hockey celebration following a goal. Sweet.

The fine will come from the SEC as it is a conference policy prohibiting fans rushing the field. To my knowledge there is no NCAA rule.
Had I been on that side of the stadium I probably would have joined in to be honest, lol.

Re: Game Six: UConn
I've noticed this just about every game, players seem to be waiting and seems to be confusion as to what is being run. Seemed like the play clock was half gone and players still looking over to see what the play was. And seems like rarely theres a huddle. maybe its the new thing but there seems to be alot of waiting
