BC vs UConn in 2002 at the HCC. It was similar to yesterday - we were down 10 with less than 3 min left and came back to win in OT. This was the game that featured an amazing dunk by Tony Robertson. It was so awesome to own bcu forever

Oh man look at that schedule. Maybe they can move their games to Amherst College instead of playing in a Mullins Center filled to 15% capacity? The Cage would have been perfect but I know that’s been repurposed

Jets point differential is the worst in the NFL. Only the Raiders and Titans have a chance to catch them. Almost two guaranteed wins every year if you are the Pats, Bills and Dolphins

I think Ohio State could hang 28 points on the Jets. They are legit the worst franchise in the NFL by a wide margin

Totally right. I saw through it and opted out myself from buying tickets and going. Lots of the players and coaches don’t care so why should I? I’ll enjoy the regular season again next year with no expectation for anything beyond the last game. The system sucks and it’s led to what is in place...

UConn men’s hoops first and foremost. UConn football. UConn women’s hoops for the big games. Pro sports it’s Yankees and LA Chargers. Celtics in post season. I get hooked into PGA on weekends whenever a tournament comes down to the final day too.

Spring, summer and fall are great but why ruin a nice visit there to see MAC basketball in the middle of winter? It’s hilarious that someone actually is trying to sell this 🤣

It is what it is

For me it's because I am genuinely interested. I grew up in the area, went to basketball camp one year there, went to MANY hoops games there both in the Cage and Mullins, Football too. Dad is an alum, many family and friends are grads from there. I think they will be more competitive in the...

Yes! They will be able to say “hey non existent UMass/MAC fans, look at this HUGE check we’re cashing! We know no one is watching but go us!” It is def about chasing the dollars. It’s similar to UConn in that our fans hated the AAC and their fans will hate the MAC. The main difference is...

Right - so there’s no reason to move up at all. It’ll be a failure from the start and they will have less fan and donor support which is already happening. They don’t have the support in the legislature either so a new stadium is out of the question too

So they decided to move up knowing there was no commitment from the state. Seems like a really bad plan and are doomed to fail - which will happen as I’ve said all along. The MA legislature is corrupt as it is and loaded with bcu supporters. They look down on the western part of the state and...

Then it’s even more foolish for UMass to double down on this. Should have stayed at FCS where they were good and not done this at all. To think moving to the MAC in all sports with one of the worst stadiums in the country is truly laughable

No question on the dropping down thing. Too much pride for a lot of ADs who didn’t read the room UMass included. They definitely can compete in the MAC, it’s just that no one around here will care. It’s a lower level example of what it was like when UConn was in the AAC for hoops.

Or they could go back to FCS where they had legitimate success and the stadium/facilities were fine for that level. Comparing the Midwest to the northeast for college football isn’t any surprise. It’s not just MA, it’s the whole region. College football is a different animal there compared to...
