And just like that, kickoff out of bounds. Never seen a team make this many mistakes

CJ should have had his butt chewed running off by the coaches! No accountability.

Every special teams play they give up yards. They have to get rid of the guy

At least this kind of watchable FBS football.

Playing okay against an equally matched 0-3 opponent. The last possession of the 2d quarter was a great example of poor coaching - they used up no clock and Handed the ball back to Miami w/plenty of time to drive down and score before the half - which Miami nearly did except their QB is awful. But we need much better coaching and play calling in order to win games - use the clock !!! why they aren't running to the c gap and stretching the Miami D is baffling to me.... still a pleasant afternoon watching college football thus far and hopefully they can shock the world here. :lol: :lol:

Won’t win if we keep dropping catchable balls.

Don't need to worry about catching balls if you just keep running the ball successfully. What a fun drive that just was.

Nice drive. Good playcalling by Montgomery.
They're playing MACsketball. We love that MACsketball.

What I like as well is that those couple of deep balls showed it's possible, so the run game getting going means they need to try to defend both.

Also so far the D is holding up to what they need to after that nice drive we had.

I just tuned in on the + so maybe the announcers have answered this question…why does it say ‘Western College’ on Miami’s jerseys?

Yikes…when’s the last time an announcer said, ”…UMass is clearly in control of this football game.”? :shock:

Alright here we are. 3rd & 7 knocking on the door - 2:00 left tie game. I would Run the ball - c gap bounce it outside. Worst case you run the clock and have a 4th down decision to kick the fg or go for the 1st down.
