^ You guys were great as always that night! I was sitting next to the mother of one of your bandmates and she was so proud of her daughter when you were playing.

I rarely ever watch the marching bands at halftime unless its UMass. Very impressive

I remember we played UNH in Foxboro a few years back. I was with a girlfriend and she was very impressed with the band at halftime and said "holy shit, they're really good".

Khari Samuel, Kole Ayi on the defensive side were pretty freakin good too if we're bringing up names

Let's keep the role call of UMass greats going, we need some positive energy. Let us not forget the great Steve Baylark who along with legend of Liam Cohen carried us to the big dance in 2006.
I nominate Sandro Vitiello, who was excellent for us and earned a few dollars after his UMass days.

We're going to win. The team likes their coach they're going to play their asses off.

Looking forward to being there this weekend. Who is headed out?


Other players: Steve King, walk-on from Milford part of the 98 Championship... didn't do much of anything, but MILFORD! Courtney Robinson and Christian Koegel, both of whom played on the 06 Finalist team.

Bell said Lytle is a game time decision. I'm guessing he's back because a wrist is either healed or it isn't. Need him back because QB play has been atrocious in the last few weeks..

I'm good with that too.. I think Brady needs to take a step back for a bit.

With that said, Lytle will be playing against two FCS teams in the coming weeks.... I hope he shines, but I also hope folks realize who he is playing against.


And if we lose either/both, well, it won't matter anyways.

Merriweather should be getting the ball 30+ times (even if Lytle plays IMO). Can’t let Olsen make mistakes so give him simple throws with easy reads. Prevent big plays on D and it should be a good homecoming.

Hopefully Lytle stays healthy next year. Olson getting a redshirt year in is important for the program.

Should be a fun game. I hope that everybody has a good time and that our kids come out with the W. Trying to figure out if I can go to the game and bet all the Breeder's Cup races .... :D

Hey Jack, for your info, former UMass football player, Paul Manganaro, is part owner of TARABI, running in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies, race 7, at Del Mar this afternoon.
