More Rhody recap and the beginnings of UNH coverage

The Providence Journal has a story about Liam Coen's return to Meade Stadium where he watched Rhody games as a kid. Article note: it the last paragraph of the story it says that a "Welcome Home Liam" sign lay on the field after the game. I was there and after the Rams won, several Rhody players ran over and ripped the sign down and took it out on the field and stomped on it...

The New Hampshire Union Leader points out that the coming UMass-UNH game is huge.

The Concord Monitor has a story on how Northeastern's Maurice Murry carried the ball 55 times against UNH last week.

The Boston Herald points out another trivia detail on the Rhody game. Not only did we tie our own all-division mark of three safeties, we became the only record holder to have scored all its points on safeties.

In other news, it took former UMass coach Tom Mesella only two years to turn Fordham into the Patriot League camp.

Back in the CAA, UMass' loss dropped us into a three way tie in the League. Richmond, Delaware and UMass all have one CAA loss. The Hens and the Spiders play each other this week and one has to loose.

If we end up tied with the Hens at the end of the regular season, I believe they own the tie breaker for the CAA auto-bid with their BCS win over Navy.
