Game 9, 2025: @ Akron (11/4)

Post by InnervisionsUMASS » Mon Oct 27, 2025 8:22 am

Bye week, but that doesn't count in the win column. MACtion starts on 11/4 with a 7pm battle at Akron which will determine if the Road to 0-12 continues.

For us sickos, no TV listed yet but usually these games are on one of the ESPN stations. At the very least, should be on ESPN+/Hulu.

Discuss.


EDIT: As Mike pointed out, CBS Sports Network for this one.

Is this the Path to 0-9 or do they burst the bubble and get that first win?

Akron just beat Buffalo so it's going to be a dogfight. Hopefully we can get healthy and get prepared to continuously improve as a football team and get the W.

MAC just announced that CBS SN gets it, which I believe takes ESPN+ off the table.

I believe the real-world equivalent of this is
Akron 49, UMass 10
All due respect, and I mean that from the bottom of my heart, I'm gonna pass.

This one was the other winnable game going into the season but Akron has worked their way to the middle of conference. They have 3 wins, 2 in conference, and beat their FCS opponent 51-7. Don’t see how UMass has a chance in this one.

There is always a chance. I've seen "There's something about Mary".

That would be one heck of a mid-week road trip.

Listening to the Thursday noon press conference and just heard 15 out of the 22 starters from the Temple game are out.

Maybe we ought to think about paying training staff more. I have a friend in that field and he said the salary is ridiculously low for the amount of time one needs to spend (50K). It should be 80k+

We need to allocate the monies better.
