[Mr. C]

Great defensive play!!!

[Hamptongal]

So will this weak defense be UNH's downfall during the playoffs or are they takin a breather this week to ensure nobody gets hurt?

[ChickenMan]

Maine/UNH is a big rivalry game...

[matfu]

GO MAINE!

[umassfan]

Maine/UNH is a big rivalry game...

[umassfan]

I knew it had some 3's and n 8 but wasnt sure exactly.

[ChickenMan]

UNH 1st and goal...

[ChickenMan]

UNH TD... Santos/Ball... they're up 45-28 middle of 3rd

[umassfan]

UNH TD... Santos/Ball... they're up 45-28 middle of 3rd
Looks like UNH is steppin on the gas... hopefully UMass can do that in the second half as well so we get 3 teams in the playoffs.

[ChickenMan]

UNH stops Maine on their 1st two possesssion of 2d half... UNH takes over at Maine 46

[ChickenMan]

dust off the A-10 autobid for UNH

[umassfan]

dust off the A-10 autobid for UNH
The A10 will have two scary teams in the playoffs this year in UNH and Richmond.

[ChickenMan]

UNH... 59-28 about 10:00 left

[ChickenMan]

UNH 59-35 about 5 left

[wildcat_fan]

That score simply isn't high enough for my liking. There is plenty of time left for Maine to score if UNH fumbles or something. Keeping my fingers crossed that we can pull it off.

[ChickenMan]

59-47 final... UNH will be the top seed

[mainejeff]

If UNH runs into any type of pass defense in the playoffs, they are toast.

Who in your eyes do you feel has the DBs to stop them?

[Punchykky]

You don't think that UMASS will make the playoffs? :confused:

[ChickenMan]

only great pass rush or bad weather will slow Santos and Co down... otherwise if you want to beat UNH... plan on scoring over 40 points.

[mainejeff]

Maybe no one :eek: . It's gonna be tough, that's for sure.

[rcny46]

I think the key to thwarting Santos is to put consistent defensive front pressure on him,force him to scramble,and not allow him the time to spot his receivers.I know Hofstra lost the game,but while not a team known for defence,their front four were in the UNH backfield more often than not,kept Santos on the run,and sacked him 7 times.

So nobody plays pass D in the A10? Not even UMass?
UC Davis found a way but we still pulled it off.

[Maroon&White]

I thought UNH was great on defense?

[WildcatFan]

No actually I think that was UMASS.
