Both teams are dealing with high winds (temps in the 60s). I think that Maine has looked better, but have shot themselves in the foot with penalties. The score is about where it should be with Maine getting a last minute TD before the half. Not that impressed with the UMass QB.......Maine's Smith is improving every week......he's gonna be a good one.

Maine has been ahead at the half of EVERY game this season including the Syracuse and Richmond games.......we'll see if UMass pulls ahead in the 2nd half.

I just got in and listened to the halftime report on the radio...I'll go with mj's assessment so far...

But the wind doesn't seem to be hurting Maine on this first drive of the 3rd...

4th and 1 for Maine...they are punting...

UMass ball

Thankfully, the UMass offense has been inept........Maine gets the ball back.

Honestly.........no other coach or program in the country is more inept at dealing with success than Cosgrove and Maine........it's really quite comical and sad at the same time.

UMass has multiple personality disorder I think.

Umass destroys Albany
Albany beats Maine
Maine beats UMass?

WTH?
