I admit it...

My issue with this is that it shouldn't be a surprise win. UConn at home vs. Temple should always be a win. Sad to see that the rent has become an easy place to win. We used to OWN the rent!

Temple has built a respectable program under Matt Rahul's leadership.
Saying Temple should always be a win might have been true in the old Big East days but not in recent years. Go ask Penn State and Notre Dame how tough an out Temple is.

lose to BC in the freezing cold.

I really can't argue with anything else in your post. At the end of the day, it is entertainment, but why keep perpetuating the weather myth?

Historic average temps for November 19 in greater Boston is 50/37. At the moment, Accuweather has it at 49/32 with a shower or two, but there is no Earthy way to predict with any certainty what the true weather will be like over two weeks out. Actual temps are supposed to eclipse today's historic average by 13 degrees.

Agreed. Remember in 2010 what a "disgrace" it was to lose to a MAC team like Temple by 2 TDs? People started calling for Edsall's head after that one. Man, how times have changed.

I should follow up with a very true statement:
The friends the wife and I have made this year at the tailgate has just made it impossible to skip out. I'd be there even in pounding sleet.
Heck...I felt guilty for cancelling my ECU trip the week of....(slightly guilty)..for like 3 minutes of game time. Then I went to the fridge and felt better.

Same here...we met some great folks next to us at the Maine game and have coordinated with them for food/drink/supplies every time since...drive in together and have become fast friends in a short while. One of the things that keeps us coming back...

Matt Rhule, sometimes my big fingers get in the way.

The American conference top to bottom is pretty solid. Very underestimated. This P5 nonsense is out of control.

8-1 or 3-6 and thank the seniors vs Tulane.

I'll be there, with red pants on. Suck it, bandwagoners.

Normal Tailgate group is between 5-7. We will have 13 tomorrow (Albeit on the strength of our tailgating skills, not necessarily the game.).

Missed this the other day. Mike can be over the top w/ positivity at times and you can't shame people into going but the message seems true.

I wish we actually hand bandwagoners... you need to be good to have those.

That game was a disgrace, though.
