[BuckyIsAB****]

The black unis and grey helmets are ugly and should be burned. We have 1 good performance in them and that was against A&M last year when they were playing with the same effort we are playing with today

[TheRef]

Punt is up and fair caught at the 33

1st and 10 UMASS

[GreenheadDawg]

They are ****ing kicking our asses. Pure and simple

[starkvegasdawg]

Every snap to Fitz is ankle high.

[MarketingBully]

Absolute shit.

[WSOPdawg]

How the 17 is a 250-lb defensive line (on average) able to whip the sh!t out of our O-line like 17'n UMass??? WTF!!!!

[TheRef]

Run up the gut for a gain of 2

2nd and 8

[I seen it dawg]

Coaches weren’t ready for this game. And we don’t have anyone on the field that can catch the football. Don’t give a **** if it’s not starters.

[Pollodawg]

If we lose, that may kill what interest I have left.

[MarketingBully]

Two runs and finish with a crappy pass. That’s not how to get back in this game.

[DudyDawg]

Ole fitz ain?t a pocket passer

[TheRef]

Run right for a gain of 1.

Horsecollar called

1st and 10 UMASS

[Dawgology]

We are going to lose this game.

[BayouDawg]

We get down by 2 scores and it's gonna be bad

[TheRef]

Run up the gut for no gain

2nd and 10

[bostondawg]

We are running out of time to be screwing around with this team.

[TheRef]

Run up the gut for a gain of 6

3rd and 4

[parabrave]

Thought we were supposed to wear their def down not the other war around. Our interior line is getting no push at all.

[Dawg61]

Nice tackle that time by Abraham

[Liverpooldawg]

If we lose, that may kill what interest I have left.

And that is why we can’t have nice things.

[BayouDawg]

It's getting loud now. Maybe this will give the players passion Liverpool***

[TheRef]

Timeout UMASS with 47 seconds left in the half.

Pass over the middle is incomplete.

[Leroy Jenkins]

What’s Dans aversion to the first half timeout?

[TheRef]

Punt is up and downed at the 2

1st and 10 from the MSU 2

[BayouDawg]

And that is why we can’t have nice things.

No your mentality is what holds MSU back. You're scared to hold coaches and players accountable. You'd rather blame fans who spend their hard earned money and valuable time supporting their team. That's ass backwards man.

[Pollodawg]

And that is why we can?t have nice things.


Piss off, you self righteous dick.

[RougeDawg]

They are ****ing kicking our asses. Pure and simple

Good thing our HC took time out of his week to send a robocall urging fans to attend this shit show.

[HoopsDawg]

Dan might be moving down UT's list.

[BuckyIsAB****]

And why are they playing with less passion?

Because its UMass at 11 o clock with bama next week you ignorant ass prick, by all means if youre there yell as loud as you can see if it makes them play harder

[TheRef]

Run up the gut for a gain of 6.

[BulldogBear]

Timeout UMASS with 47 seconds left in the half.

3rd and 4

Ball at the MSU 44

What's a timeout?

[Liverpooldawg]

Because its UMass at 11 o clock with bama next week you ignorant ass prick, by all means if youre there yell as loud as you can see if it makes them play harder

You think if there was a full house they might have a bit more energy? Maybe?

[BulldogBear]

What’s Dans aversion to the first half timeout?

Playing not to lose. Similar to its cousin the prevent D. Both don't often turn out like you want it to.

[Liverpooldawg]

Good think our HC took time out of his week to send a robocall urging fans to attend this shit show.
He saw this coming, he wasn’t alone.

[BulldogBear]

You think if there was a full house they might have a bit more energy? Maybe?

Sure. We're losing because the crowd isn't bigger or loud enough.*** Then how do we win on the road?

[BeardoMSU]

Lets see how much ass gets chewed and some adjustments made.

[BuckyIsAB****]

You think if there was a full house they might have a bit more energy? Maybe?

Maybe. Itd still be 11 am and itd still be Umass. But it doesnt matter. If you disrespect the game by walking your ass on the field and going through the motions you will be exposed. Sit down and shut up

[HoopsDawg]

You think if there was a full house they might have a bit more energy? Maybe?

how many times can you make the same point?

[TheRef]

Also, to those of you saying "don't blame the fans for this" I have one thing to say to you. **** off. The reason why Dan and the players wanted a crowd was because we are ranked with a sneaky good UMass team coming in. Dan legitimately didn't look happy at the crowd size when he ran out of the tunnel. The players feed off the crowd and when there isn't a crowd to feed off of, you're gonna struggle. I don't care what kind of team you are. It gets you a LOT more hyped up and inspired when you have a big crowd behind you.

Now does the blame solely lie on the fans? No. The players and coaching staff burden some of the blame too. But get off of your pity run with the "I'm not showing up for an 11 AM non-conference game because I'm too busy doing other things." I'll tell you this, if I could have afforded to come down and watch the game in person, I would have. But I have other obligations that I have to do. Granted, I also don't buy season tickets. I come when I can because I live so far away. But I remember when we used to pack out Davis Wade no matter who we were playing and no matter what time.

So both sides stop bitching at each other and come together for this team for once. Our fanbase is our own worst enemy. And people wonder why opponents make fun of us? When your fanbase argues with each other over petty shit like this, you get the situation we are in. That's all I have to say about it, and I'll return with game updates at the end of halftime.

[Liverpooldawg]

No your mentality is what holds MSU back. You're scared to hold coaches and players accountable. You'd rather blame fans who spend their hard earned money and valuable time supporting their team. That's ass backwards man.

Well, I don’t think you can hold anyone else accountable unless you hold yourself accountable. This has been a poor showing all the way around, team and fans. I’m at the game, but I’m as dead as the rest. The big games take care of themselves. It’s ones like this where we need to do better.

[Bully13]

No excuse for this lack of effort.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Show me at 11 am game sellout anywhere in the country against a 2-6 team and Ill agree with you

[gravedigger]

What’s Dans aversion to the first half timeout?

He doesn?t want anyone to think he has to actually put a mental effort into winning this game. It?s all on the players according to his halftime interview, but we are coaching like we are playing a cupcake. He needs to acknowledge his offensive coaching is no better than their effort.

They are loading the box. Fitz is one heck of an athlete. But he cannot overcome with his feet what they are doing. If we don?t treat the second half like this is a conference game, we will struggle to win.

[Dawg61]

I'll return with game updates at the end of halftime.

Please don't

[Tbonewannabe]

You think if there was a full house they might have a bit more energy? Maybe?

Do you think the crowd might be more fired up if the team looked like they gave a shit? It works both ways.

[BrunswickDawg]

how many times can you make the same point?

He has at least 10 more posts in him. #GrindinforhisState

[ShotgunDawg]

No excuse for this lack of effort.

By both the team and fans

[Liverpooldawg]

how many times can you make the same point?

LOL, I’m just pissed. It was deflating when we got here this morning. I was hoping for better.

[TheRef]

Please don't

K...

[BeardoMSU]

Jesus Christ this thread is a shit show...even more so than the actual game, lol.

[Liverpooldawg]

Do you think the crowd might be more fired up if the team looked like they gave a shit? It works both ways.

Yes it does, that’s my point. It’s a synergy. When you don’t have either part it doesn’t work like it’s supposed to.

[ShotgunDawg]

Do you think the crowd might be more fired up if the team looked like they gave a shit? It works both ways.

I don’t understand. Did the crowd not show up because they knew how the team would play?

Not sure I get your logic

Play like it matters and then call the fans out for not showing up. Fact is our team is playing the way our fans feel about the game. One is not dependent on the other. They are both an indication that there is NO interest in non power 5 games.

[Matt3467]

Fitzgerald is just not a good QB. I remember people on this board comparing him to Dak.

[Tbonewannabe]

I don’t understand. Did the crowd not show up because they knew how the team would play?

Not sure I get your logic

I am saying the crowd would be more fired up if the team looked like they gave a shit. The crowd might not be energetic but it has just as much to do with the effort by the team as the 11 am time against a 2 win OOC team.

[bluelightstar]

Fitzgerald is just not a good QB. I remember people on this board comparing him to Dak.

Come on man, he is a better college QB than Dak**

[dawgclub99]

It is 100 percent on the players

Agreed.

[Tbonewannabe]

Fitzgerald is just not a good QB. I remember people on this board comparing him to Dak.

He is a great athlete but he just doesn't have the leadership like Dak has, not many QBs have that though.

[Westdawg]

Fitzgerald is just not a good QB. I remember people on this board comparing him to Dak.

I?m just going to have to disagree with you there. He had a TD dropped...asking with several passes dropped that would have moved the chains.
He had one pass that the DB jumped the route. He should ya e looked the safety off but that?s really his only bad pass this game.
We have NO LEGIT WRs on this team outside of Gray. It?s really pathetic how bad we are at this one position talent-wise

[Dawg61]

K...

You're a very nice person Ref. I appreciate how nice you are and how passionate you're with MSU sports however nobody posting on this board right now needs a football game stenographer. Sit back, relax and enjoy bitching about the second half like the rest of us.

I enjoy it. Reading our shit show is less stressful than actually watching it

[RocketDawg]

Looks like a different team to start the second half.

[BeardoMSU]

Dan must be full from all that ass he chewed at halftime....

[BuckyIsAB****]

Reggie Todd blocked 2 guys on the bubble to Jackson. EFFORT. That had shit to do with how many people were in the stands.

[Dawg61]

I enjoy it. Reading our shit show is less stressful than actually watching it

Then here you go. I linked you the play by play with stats provided by ESPN.

http://www.espn.com/college-football/game?gameId=400933908

[BrunswickDawg]

He is a great athlete but he just doesn't have the leadership like Dak has, not many QBs have that though.
Thats such horseshit. I can remember plenty of games against crap opponents where we came out and looked like shit with Dak at QB.

[Pollodawg]

They?re playing better. Stadium must have filled up at halftime

[parabrave]

About time they called that chop block.

[Leroy Jenkins]

Dan is just trying to lessen the “Mullen to________” rumors.

[Dawg61]

Dan is just trying to lessen the “Mullen to________” rumors.

It's already working on the announcers

[TheRef]

Fitz tied with Jerious Norwood for most 100 yard rushing games.

[BrunswickDawg]

And Fitz just passed John Bond in rushing yards with that TD

[Leroy Jenkins]

Fitz tied with Jerious Norwood for 2nd most 100 yard rushing games.

Boobie has the most.

[HoopsDawg]

Aeris is an average runner by SEC standards, but he is an excellent blocker on those QB runs.

[TheRef]

Boobie has the most.

That's what I meant...tied on the list with Norwood

[Liverpooldawg]

More energy from the very start this half. Both on the field and in the stands.

[starkvegasdawg]

Looks like Mullen lost a shoe at halftime. Let?s hope it continues.

[Dawg61]

Fitz is gonna be a college football HOF at this rate with his rushing records

[Tbonewannabe]

Thats such horseshit. I can remember plenty of games against crap opponents where we came out and looked like shit with Dak at QB.

Just an opinion. Dak has that intangible that helped him become the Dallas Cowboys team captain his 2nd year. I will be happily wrong. I am not even saying Fitz doesn't have great leadership qualities.

[Red Sox Dawg]

how many times can you make the same point?


Aeris is an average runner by SEC standards, but he is an excellent blocker on those QB runs.

Just about to post the same thing. A Train is the best blocking RB on the team.

[RocketDawg]

Maybe this game will put an end to "black-outs" and other "-outs". Just saw a crowd shot and 90% were wearing maroon.

On second though, this would be good game to have a camo-out so you couldn't tell if anybody was in the stands or not ....

[Perpetual Underachiever]

Aeris is an average runner by SEC standards, but he is an excellent blocker on those QB runs.

Gotta think Hill or Gibson would've busted a long one by now, but they're nowhere near the blocker.

[Tbonewannabe]

Fitz is gonna be a college football HOF at this rate with his rushing records

He still has another year to add to it. He also might get 200 yards against Ark and UM. He will leave as the best running QB in SEC history.

[Dawg61]

Don't get your hopes up. Adidas still gonna wanna sell Adidas stuff.

You are correct about Dak. Your post implied to me that you were. I misinterpreted. Apologies. Carry on.

[Dawg61]

Ughhh we always get burnt over the top. Five plus years straight now.

[Leroy Jenkins]

Damn those fans for allowing 50 yards on 3rd and inches.

[Perpetual Underachiever]

The level of play we're getting from Dez is a medical miracle, and testament to his hard work. Really is amazing what he's battled through, and is still a highly productive SECW LB. Going to miss that leadership next year

[Leroy Jenkins]

I’m a huge Dez fan. Good for him.

[BeardoMSU]

Stopped 'em on 4th and 1. Thank ****.

[HoopsDawg]

Gotta think Hill or Gibson would've busted a long one by now, but they're nowhere near the blocker.

Yeah, there have been a couple of carries where I didn't think Aeris maximized potential yardage. Had a huge hole on one play and only got 8 yards.

[Dawg61]

Oh we ran the speed option, nice!

[Leroy Jenkins]

Stopped 'em on 4th and 1. Thank ****.

Fans must have showed up.

[Tbonewannabe]

You are correct about Dak. Your post implied to me that you were. I misinterpreted. Apologies. Carry on.

No problem, people doing a comparison between Fitz and Dak is weird to me. Dak is the best overall QB in MSU history and Fitz is probably going to be the best running QB in SEC history. He is still developing as a passer.

[BrunswickDawg]

Aeris? pass catching skills get little credit. He good

[BeardoMSU]

Wow, Dan....good call, bud.***

[BrunswickDawg]

Got damn Dan. That was ****ing stupid

[BeardoMSU]

Jesus....Christ....

[Bothrops]

No Regerts!!!!

[Coursesuper]

Stupid

[Boodawg]

Perfect call***

[MarketingBully]

Why Dan? Dumb play. We only have a one score lead. Just gave huge momentum back to them.

[Leroy Jenkins]

Damn fans, calling the reverse-pass-int play vs UMass. Our fans suck.

[Irondawg]

That is how you lose these type games. Have all the momentum where another score locks it down and we try that nonsense.

[State82]

No hyperbole here. But that was the dumbest shit I've ever seen from a Power 5 football coach. Ever.

[gravedigger]

Perfect call***

If it had worked it was a poor decision.

Anyone else want to continue with this being 100% on the players?

[Dawg61]

That one goes on Todd not Dan

[MarketingBully]

If the CB is running with the WR on that play, just throw the damn ball away.

[Coach007]

There defense is beat... spent..... we are movibg at will. Why are we trying to leave them in it?

Dumb call

[BuckyIsAB****]

They havent stopped us on the ground 2nd half lets throw a reverse pass and show bama we will play peters on offense. Good job Dan

[Tbonewannabe]

Got damn Dan. That was ****ing stupid

100% agree. We were just walking down the field again getting 8 -9 yards per play.

[Mjoelner34]

Student section is so empty they had to shoot t shirts into the home side stands.

[Irondawg]

I️ know they are stacking up on the run but that’s not the best way to beat it

[Dawgface]

Fans got fired up so Dan got the urge for a trick play. Fans screwed us again.

[Liverpooldawg]

That crap was on Mullen. He just let them back in the game. That was plain stupid.

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

Their CB looked more comfortable making that over the shoulder catch than any of our WRs would look trying to catch that.

[MarketingBully]

That one goes on Todd not Dan

You don’t call that play up only one score!

[DownwardDawg]

Dumbest play call of the Mullen tenure?

[somebodyshotmypaw]

No hyperbole here. But that was the dumbest shit I've ever seen from a Power 5 football coach. Ever.

A coach 90 minutes up the road gave up a $16 million contract because he's too stupid to buy a burner phone to call his whores. So not the dumbest shit.

[Dawg61]

Targeting?? So he's out first half vs Bama

[BeardoMSU]

Jesus....

[RocketDawg]

Abrams gone, and he should be.

[HoopsDawg]

Man, Abram hits hard.

[MarketingBully]

That was not targeting.

[Mjoelner34]

We have speds for db's.

[RocketDawg]

Dumbest play call of the Mullen tenure?

Dunno ... he's had some dillies.

[HoopsDawg]

Abrams gone, and he should be.

Right when he had taken over for McLaurin.

[DownwardDawg]

We just can't have nice things

[MarketingBully]

Auburn and Georgia players should have been ejected if that was targeting.

[Irondawg]

HOW many big defensive penalties is that?

[Lord McBuckethead]

So Mullen ****ing around. Now we lose Abram for a half.

[BeardoMSU]

That was not targeting.

It was targeting, but he couldn't really have tackled him any other way.

[Saltydog]

NT

[RocketDawg]

That was not targeting.

Yeah it was. Hit him with the crown of his helmet right on his chin.

[Gutter Cobreh]

That was not targeting.

Can't lead with your head; it was the correct call.

Boneheaded play, as he had dead to rights.

[Dawg61]

Nice hit by Peters

[HoopsDawg]

Abram plays the exact same way Nickoe Whitley used to play. But the rules have changed.

[Irondawg]

At this point I don’t really care how ugly it is, just want to escape with a W

[BrunswickDawg]

Abrams gone, and he should be.
No - while it was targeting by the rule, the QB dropped down clinching preparing to get drilled. That?s not on Abrahm. The rule doesn?t account for that though which I think is a flaw. You see it happen all the time.

[BeardoMSU]

At this point I don’t really care how ugly it is, just want to escape with a W

Yep.

[Coach007]

It was targeting and it hurts us vs bama. He is a great run defense guy.

[BrunswickDawg]

At this point I don’t really care how ugly it is, just want to escape with a W
We were due. The lopsided games we?ve had all season had to end sometime.

[MarketingBully]

No - while it was targeting by the rule, the QB dropped down clinching preparing to get drilled. That?s not on Abrahm. The rule doesn?t account for that though which I think is a flaw. You see it happen all the time.

I saw at least three plays against Auburn and Georgia they threw flags for targeting and they picked those flags up. If what Abram did was targeting, those three players should have also been ejected.

[Coach007]

This was our sleep walk prepped for bama game

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

No - while it was targeting by the rule, the QB dropped down clinching preparing to get drilled. That?s not on Abrahm. The rule doesn?t account for that though which I think is a flaw. You see it happen all the time.

Yup. By rule it's targeting, but it's stupid that you get ejected because the other guy essentially drops his head down to your head level right before contact.

[Irondawg]

This might be the drive of the game for us. i don’t fully trust our defense to stop them so we need a 5 min td drive or just finally hit a play action pass

[BeardoMSU]

We were due. The lopsided games we?ve had all season had to end sometime.

Good point.

[gravedigger]

No - while it was targeting by the rule, the QB dropped down clinching preparing to get drilled. That?s not on Abrahm. The rule doesn?t account for that though which I think is a flaw. You see it happen all the time.

Great point

[RocketDawg]

I saw at least three plays against Auburn and Georgia they threw flags for targeting and they picked those flags up. If what Abram did was targeting, those three players should have also been ejected.

Can't argue that. But the officiating was a bit one-sided in both those games.

[HoopsDawg]

Don't know why we are snapping the ball with 15-20 seconds on the play clock.

[BeardoMSU]

and a 3 and out.....****ing awesome....

[sandwolf]

That was not targeting.

Haha, that was as clear cut a case of targeting as there is. You can't lead with the crown of your helmet and and you can't hit people in the head/neck area......if you do either of those things it's targeting and he did both.

[Bothrops]

Does Mullen want to lose this game?

[HoopsDawg]

I wonder if Rankin can play LG?

[Dawg61]

Good break with the punt, UMASS has to go almost 80 yards now to score a TD after that roll

[Tbonewannabe]

Reggie Todd just lost every bit of the momentum we had since halftime. Oline went right back to looking like shit.

[HoopsDawg]

Good break with the punt, UMASS has to go almost 80 yards now to score a TD after that roll

better cover that cerebral WR. He is a great route runner and student of the game.

Dan Mullen is writing a book called “How to lose to a 30 point underdog.”

Good break with the punt, UMASS has to go almost 80 yards now to score a TD after that roll

They've shown that they can do it though

[DownwardDawg]

They'll get most of it on a pass play.

[Leroy Jenkins]

better cover that cerebral WR. He is a great route runner and student of the game.

...and the fastest guy on the field. If you had added the words "possession" and "effort" you would have hit every white guy cliche. Nice.

[BeardoMSU]

Good job defense. Now lets run this damn clock out.

[Dawg61]

Thomas!!!!!!!

[BeardoMSU]

Never mind, lol. Punt returned for a TD.

[BrunswickDawg]

Thomas!!!!!

[BeardoMSU]

Thank Christ! Some breathing room....

[RocketDawg]

First punt return of the year I believe! Stretching it out a little now, like it should have been all along.

[Dawg61]

Don't think he's 5th string anymore

[dawgday166]

This was our sleep walk prepped for bama game

No chance against Bama if we can't sleep walk through this game and still win by 3 tds.

[BrunswickDawg]

Don't think he's 5th string anymore

Well, with all 4 in front of him injured.....

[MarketingBully]

Thank goodness for Thomas! We needed that to make up for our absolute shit playing.

[Coach007]

Literally thise games we list last year, like this one, we are winning because if defense and special teams play..... which is why we lost thise last year

[MarketingBully]

No chance against Bama if we can't sleep walk through this game and still win by 3 tds.

The playcalling in the first half was atrocious. Had we called both halves well on offense this is a blowout.

[HoopsDawg]

we never had a chance against Bama anyway bro. Let's go 9-3 though.

[Eric Nies Grind Time]

So we are playing poorly and still outscored them 21-3 in the second half.

[HoopsDawg]

Crap, 57 might have just blown out Green's knee.

[parabrave]

Does Mullen want to lose this game?

I need to come up there and give Dan the Bayonet training I received in the Army. Thrust it in twist it while shouting Kill Kill Kill. This ingrains into you to have a killers mentality.

[BeardoMSU]

Glad Gerry walked off the field by himself.

[Eric Nies Grind Time]

Damn Umass qb got knocked out

[dawgday166]

Agreed ... Coach thinks we have a chance tho. Or at least he did before.

[Dawg61]

Mullen getting on Whipple's ass for that dirty play vs Green

[Bothrops]

Wtf?

[Dawgology]

UMass players fightin each other on the field.

[Liverpooldawg]

What the heck are Mullen and the UMass coach about to fight over?

[Eric Nies Grind Time]

Wtf is up with 57 for UMass...what an asshole

[BeardoMSU]

Mullen getting on Whipple's ass for that dirty play vs Green

Looked like it.

[starkvegasdawg]

Why were teams separated? Wasn?t paying attention.

[Commercecomet24]

They been going after our players knees all day!

[BeardoMSU]

This game is bananas....on many levels.

[BeardoMSU]

Please no RAT in this moment...

[Commercecomet24]

This game is bananas....on many levels.

Yep twilight sone

[Dawg61]

UMass player was intentionally twisting Green's ankle at the bottom of the pile. It's why he got hurt. Watch the replay. Mullen got on Whipple about his player being dirty and injuring our player.

[BeardoMSU]

Late hit on 57! **** that dude.

[Eric Nies Grind Time]

jesus. would they kick 57 out already

[Leroy Jenkins]

Game attendance.

Twisting and punching his knee and ankle dirty crap

[BrunswickDawg]

57 is a dumb mf

[Dawg61]

Pretty sure Thomas for UMass is the guy that intentionally injured Green. His own player called him out on it and he shoved him in the facemask for it and just now he got a personal foul late hit/shove. Dude is outta control.

[Dawg61]

Get Fitz outta this game.

[Eric Nies Grind Time]

If we were this fired up at the beginning of the game we would have won 60-0.

[BrunswickDawg]

Intersting stats - this is the largest margin of victory against UMASS all season. All their loses have been by less than 10 points. Blow out streak is still alive.***

[BeardoMSU]

Thank god.

[MarketingBully]

Great job to win after playing like shit! I’ll take an 11 point win after our start. 7-2 and now move on to Bama.

Amen brother!

[Eric Nies Grind Time]

Would love to have that UMass receiver on our team. UMass had a few SEC quality starters.

[preachermatt83]

Well that was entertaining

[Perpetual Underachiever]

Anyone got video of the fight/argument?

[HoopsDawg]

Not that we didn't already know, but it shows how ineffective this offense is without a runner at QB. We tried to not run Nick in the 1st half and we couldn't score a TD.

[Dawg61]

I'll take their RB, WR and two DBs. Not saying Henry (RB) would start for us but he'd be on the field a whole bunch. Dude is fast and has some make you miss moves. He's an NFL player.

Yes, our O is dependent on making a team defend the whole field and all 11.

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

That was our annual crap game against a non power 5 opponent. Glad we didn't come out on the short end of it this season. Wish we'd quit doing it.

[Dawgology]

I’ve got so say. We played like shit but it was an entertaining game to attend. It’s been a long time since I’ve sat directly behind the opposing team. Heckling then through the 4th quarter was too much fun.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Never play UMass ever again. Ever

[DownwardDawg]

Whew! Had a meeting to attend. Missed the end but just glad we won!

[Dawg61]

Never play UMass ever again. Ever

We beat them in football every time. We lose to them in basketball every time.
