Tuesday before Rhode Island--Nov 16th, 2010

Image above is a scan from last week's game program. Click on the image and blogger displays a larger view.

The weekly FCS polls are out. UMass is 19th in both of them.
The Polls don't mean much this week. It's beat Rhode Island or we're out.

Matty V has a story breaking down the the football playoffs. It includes quotes from UMass AD John McCutcheon, the former chair of the selection committee. UMass has made a financial bid for a first round playoff, if we are selected.

The UMass-Holy Cross BB game may be moved earlier or later if it conflicts with a home playoff game.

Former UMass assistant coach John Zamberlin has been fired as HC of the Idaho State Bengals.

I've blogged about Zamberlin before.

Delaware's Pat Devlin was named CAA Offensive player-of-the-week for his performance against UMass.

Devlin is also fourth in Josh Buchanan's "Top 50" list of FCS players.

Rhode Island turned the ball over seven times in their loss to Richmond last week.

UNH only needs a win against Towson to make the playoffs.
