OK OK

Some of you can go research methods of self-immolation. But ... I suspect that the season ain't over.

Diaco f ingt panics inside of a minute. Calls plays that let the clock run...doesnt attempt fgs or even a hail mary....just completely chicken sh&*

That is the single biggest move in the history of this program.

^^^ THIS!!! I can chalk up some things to first game jitters, but why wouldn't you take a shot with 20 seconds left to go whilst in their territory?? Good God....

Anyone counting the hits on Shirreffs versus the hits on the RB's?

Kid is a leader and he is trying to win anyway possible but he is taking way too many hits. If ME had a d the size Uconn will see the rest of the season, he would be out of this game already.

Diaco has learned almost nothing about game coaching in 2 years. It's really demoralizing. Unless something changes drastically I'm off the bandwagon.
Year 3 = SHOW ME and it's not possible to pin this sissy approach on the players. We run a plain vanilla offense. Predictable and passive. It's not productive and not fun to watch. And our QB won't last long passing only on 3rd down. Just sickening.

Liam Coen (Maine OC) shows a solid balance for a FCS Program ... and Verducci is stuck.

Target Noel Thomas. Run Newsome/Johnson. Let's see more more more. And, I really am disappointed in the OLine. Not Shirreffs ... kids gutty (and how are we gonna make it through 12).

First 3 drives start at the 40 or better and no points.

Uconn will win, but they should have scored on at least two of those drives with a short field against ME.

I am even ok with the conservative calling, but he has learned NOTHING about clock management in his time at UConn. Terrible inside of 2 minutes all last year, and now this. You either kick the 52 yarder with your senior Groza candidate or throw a hail mary. Just no words to describe the stupidity.

Coaching staff quit on the team for the second time this half.

First series, they had fourth and 1 at Maine 40 and punted.

And now they let 30 seconds run off inside Maine's territory and don't even attempt a play.

Hope Benedict takes notice.

Agree with this 100% Hopefully Benedict can see the negative impact a negative philosophy has on this team. It will never get us where we need to be. We're not Alabama.

Awful line play. Awful play calling Awful defense. Awful time management. If we don't come back in the 2nd half we seriously need to reevaluate this staff.

Sherriffs was actually pretty good.

He was, but I found myself wincing every time he went down. And bottom line, we should have a better line so that he isn't deployed on the ground anywhere near as often.
