Thought two minutes ago: We as UMass fans are always waiting for the other shoe to drop. But this has been a good quarter!

Current situation: Other shoe drops.

So remove Bamford and everything is solved? We have been wretched for a long long time. The stadium stinks, the area is devoid of high school talent, it’s cold, nobody goes to games, no athlete’s making money, and there’s no tradition or record of success. Aside from us being FBS by classification ...

There was a moment where, down 17-0 at home to a 2-7 team, that team was -100000 to win the game. $20 to win two cents. RIP the penny.

More Rose, less Hairston please. I realize neither option is ideal, but one is at least being decisive and pushing the ball downfield.

Great.

So infuriating. You string together a few nice plays, including a good slant, and then go three of the same run plays and punt it into a guy’s chest. I know we’re limited but c‘mon.

Play by play guy called White “one of the best defensive players in the country.”

It’s worth noting that last year’s Kent State team went 0-12 with a -366 point margin (529-163), including a loss to FCS St. Francis. That’s the biggest disparity since 1978. At this moment, we have a 221-58 margin and zero indication that this will get any better. So we might have an all-time bad ...

The 2.5 point spread was so ridiculous. Miles behind these guys.

It’s inspiring when, as the color commentator said, our QB “hasn’t been good this season but had a good week of practice.”

3rd and 7, we run some stupid RPO and Jordan gets demolished in the backfield. Punt.

Meanwhile, this sophomore QB, who I thought was great and had a better receiving corps/gameplan than us all night, marches down the field and into the win column.

Make it 26-124 since our move to FBS.

Use our last timeout after that first down … or save it to at least consider icing the kicker?

Potential for the worst loss in the history of UMass football??

Not sure about that, but if they win, it could be one of the worst wins in the history of UMass football.


I’d argue for the 35-10 loss to ...

When you have three quarterbacks, you have no quarterbacks.

Gotta give it up to Bryant for hanging in with two (albeit terrible) FBS teams in back to back weeks.

Seems as though Northern Illinois is off to the Mountain West after next season.

I’m not typing that guy’s name out every time. He shall be JH henceforth.

Good hire. I will not offer the first “we gotta get rid of this guy” but somebody’ll say it sometime.
