Game Day--Florida September 3rd, 2016

The UMass-Gators game is available on channel 408 of Dish Network here in New Hampshire.

UPDATE: Dan Malone has media options for today's game.

UPDATE II: Boston College loses to Georgia Tech in Ireland. No sure what we learned about the Eagles in this. A lush, soggy field slowed the Wreck's triple option offense and BC's killer defense could not fly to the ball. BC stopped Georgia Tech except when it mattered,on the last drive. The Eagles special teams did not impress either. Toles can throw a spiral, but he looked rusty. BC Interruption reacts.

UPDATE III: I'm enjoying the SEC channel's voice-of-doom promos for the next game.

Florida vs UMass! Next on the SEC channel!!

It's a big challenge today against the Gators. I do believe we have a better football team in 2016. Let's not get rattled by the Swamp and play under control.

I'm excited to see the Minutemen back on the field. This is what we all obsess about all year long. I still remember how quiet Notre Dame stadium was 20 minutes into the game. I hope UMass can keep it close early and then see what happens.

Let's go, UMass!!!

I watched Army upset Temple last night. The announcers talked about Temple's last minute win over UMass with a blocked extra point. Temple was tied for second in the nation in blocked kicks with 14 last year.

When I reported Thursday's game results, I forgot Wagner topped sub-FCS St. Anslem 38-16.
