OK, now that was a day at McGuirk that would have made George N. Parks proud. The weird, sad atmosphere of Homecoming was totally gone. Lots of good things and lots of energy happening in Amherst today.
First, the UMass Police were directing traffic and access to the Yellow and Green lots were much improved. Thank you UMass Police.
The Announcer Guy, except for a tendency to have John Griffin making the tackle instead of running the ball, had a much better game.
The UMass Band Day was superb as usual. George would have been especially proud of that.
The UMass Media Dept should start beating the drums for Tyler Holmes as a Buchanan Award finalist. If there's another LB in FCS that has as much impact on a game as Tyler, I'd like to see him.
And Julian Talley, took a wicked pop on a pass reception and bounced up to tell the Maine defenders "You can't hurt me!" and then proved it a couple plays later with a circus catch.

If you missed it, Rhode Island had the CAA upset of the season by topping Villanova 17-14.

More tomorrow. Enjoy the day and the win everyone.
