We have similarly putrid offense, but we give up 14 more points per game on defense and 140 more yards against

We might lose that one 3-0.

Go UMass!
Tough 2 point loss by winless Sam Houston last night. Buzzer beater field goal. Still 3 winless teams left, but Oregon St has a winnable game tomorrow. Looks like the path is clear for the loser tomorrow to get the #1 spot.

Coach Joe "talks Kent State"...........

DeShields was on fire in Kent State’s close loss to the highly-touted Buffalo Bulls. He threw for 279 yards and two touchdowns, going 22-for-32 on attempts. His running ability was also on display. He took off 14 times for 37 yards and a touchdown.

Watch, he'll transform into Baker Mayfield or Josh Allen tomorrow. QBR of 115 :lol: :lol: :lol: we'll know the result in 25 hours.

Like Rene Ingoglia said: "I don't care if UMass loses the next 99 games, I'll still be a fan"................I guess, me too. But are we actually going to lose the next 99 games, THEN a win???? :roll: :roll: :roll:

October 11, 2014 we beat Kent State exactly 11 years ago at Kent State. But Whip was the coach, we were 0-6 but Whip had us losing to Colorado and Vandy by a FG, and lost to Miami (OH) by 1 point. Sorry guys but Coach Joe ain't Whip. I think this Dru DeShields goes off tomorrow. :cry: :cry: :cry:

There, as in Milford? Or there, as in Portage County? Or elsewhere? I can't get an accurate forecast from Dicky Albert without knowing a location.

Like any addict I truly believe that today is the first day of the rest of my life meaning that UMass turns it around today and never looks back!

If you guys are both going to that Maction game I’ll have to be there. I will buy a couple of zeppelins at The Hangar for everyone. I currently live on an island and haven’t been able to make any Saturday games but the NIU game is now on the calendar, especially now that Steve81 has this one as a winnable game.

Oh I'm going!!!! Leave Boston around 2 or 3....Haven't been back to McGuirk since December 1983. last UMass football game I caught was at Gillette. Hoping for the best today but I think their QB Dru DeShields transforms into Baker Mayfield or Justin Herbert. Think the 2 P4 games in games 3 and 4 took care of our season. Really wish we had Mark Whipple back: 2014 we came within a FG of Colorado and Vandy.
