UMass vs. Georgia Southern

[ktuck911]

It's about to kick off on ESPN2. I'm seriously hating right now.

 

[ktuck911]

And like clockwork, as inexperienced teams do, UMass gives up the big pass play for the TD. Safety bites up the middle leaving back end WIDE open

 

[ktuck911]

UMass needs to recruit a punter

Like most substitutes UMass is making the regular teacher look good. They are down 38-0 in the 3rd to their Sun Belt hosts. Now they can sit by the phone and see who else needs to fill in a cancellation with a Saturday romp over the school most willing to prostitute its team. Will play anyone on short notice for a check. This shows a commitment to the program?

Well yes according to some on this forum.

Yikes. And UMass paid for this game....like a prostitute paying their clients.

This was never gonna go well. Starting their first game on the road at Ga Southern who's already played 3 previous games, and are significantly better to begin with. They even forgot their road jerseys, which is why GS is wearing white at home.

Their kids get to play, their fans get to watch them get pummeled. There's good & bad in it.

Nah... because they said they weren’t playing this year their 2020 uni’s got pushed down the list by Adidas and when they relit the fuse Adidas couldn’t get their full sets to them in time.

It was still cool to see them get to play no matter how bad they were.

Honestly, though, I believe we're lucky to not get too penalized by not playing this year... we just better be ready to play in the Fall of '21... We better come out playing with a sense of urgency and focus... a no "I" in team mentality. The (youknowwhat) show that UMass, which looks to be a bit younger than us, is putting on won't be considered acceptable for us. my two cents.... #BleedBlue

UMass is playing. UConn is in bed with the blanket pulled over its head. Sorry, but not a good look.

You call that playing by Umass? That was an embarrassment. They looked lost

 

[Exit 4]

I wanted to watch the game, played golf instead... the score is scary bad

That’s a ridiculous take. UMass looks like a traveling carnival. Would not have worked for us at all.

 

[BugsyCT]

This isn't a good look either. But maybe other slots will open for them.

 

[buddy]

At least they tried.

UMass looked like a bad football team. But they were on the field.

Which proves what exactly? Umass is so bad they have nothing to lose except a football game against a Sun Belt school. I hear that the Little Sisters of the Poor have an opening next week, maybe they can jump on that.

I think UConn could hang with UMass. Hope our guys are home, safe and keeping the chi-com flu social protocols. Is HCRE2.0 the highest paid coach in 2020 on a per game basis?

 

[Ldandy]

The outcome was never all that important IMO. Everyone already knew that UMASS would be bad this year and that was before Covid. At least their young players are getting the opportunity to improve by playing actual football. Anybody who thinks Uconn is not going to play for a year and a half and magically be better for it is kidding themselves.

 

[Dooooooomed]

Anyone who thinks playing 1 Fall game (& at a cost) is gonna make a team any better than not playing any games is kidding themselves.

Amen brother. We are what, 1 or 2 D1 FBS teams not playing?
WUHAN HUSKIES GO FIGHT WIN!!!

Yet we will never know and that is the problem.

I will say this always. They should have played this year, even without a crowd. UConn has lost a couple of recruits already for next year.

Just going to keep spewing your racist rhetoric I see.

 

[BlueDogs]

In a mind bending feat of logical gymnastics, UMass got smoked, therefore UConn’s decision to keeping winning against practice dummies is vindicated. That’s all this is about. Defending the indefensible.
