C'mon, hoops, just take the ferry either Orient Point or Port Jeff. Yale Bowl easy to get to! Oh, and I guarantee there will be seats available on game day!

I see that this game is on ESPN+ No visual option given for the Yale game All the Ivies have their home games on an ESPN service. Harvard has their TV schedule posted, all its IVY opponents, home and away are on some ESPN service. Outside of the BC game, Holy Cross has only posted the viewing option for home games. Not sure why they don't post the road games' viewing options. We know all the road Patriot league games are on ESPN +. Army has posted that the HC game will be on CBS Sports Network.

Re Merrimack. Hope the players & coaches are not reading the pre-season "press clippings" as we(myself included) are doing this summer. Luckily, we don't play. the games.

Re Merrimack. Hope the players & coaches are not reading the pre-season "press clippings" as we(myself included) are doing this summer. Luckily, we don't play. the games. Monty Python had a skit called "The Walker Brigade" set in WWII. The British had run out of able bodied men to recruit so they emptied out the Old Age Homes and threw the Walker Brigade at the Nazis. Those old guys kicked the snot out of the Germans, in the skit anyways.

Basically, HC cannot afford to lose this game for a number of reasons. I'm sure the staff is aware of that.
Last year, our team was ready to play; outgained them by over 200 yards; won the turnover battle as well. Only thing that was lost was the penalty stats 70-110.

Really, can’t afford to lose any if we are going to have a real shot at a national title and that’s the goal whether said out loud or just locker room whispers.

I believe we are a much more talented and better-coached team than Merrimack. I am confident that we will not take Merrimack lightly and will not "look past them" to the next week's game. I believe we will post a convincing win to start the season.

Spectrum is taking CBS sports channel off the cable system in Worcester in September, we will not be able to watch the Army game. Everyone should complain to Spectrum that we need that channel.

I believe we will post a convincing win to start the season. We definitely won't look past them. Interestingly, Chesney DOMINATED Merrimack while he was at Assumption. They had same coach they have now. Only anomaly was the loss at Fitton in 2021.

We just recently canceled our Comcast cable TV subscription, and have moved to streaming using YouTube TV. Not only is it much cheaper, another advantage is it contains many channels that were not on my Comcast subscription, including CBS Sports channel. I think that there are other packages that do the same thing. If you do complain to spectrum, I think it will be most persuasive if you explain to them that you will cancel their service and start streaming your channels if they don't keep CBS Sports Channel.

Not going to do much good when wider fan bases than HC, like the NY Mets and NY Yankees, were unsuccessful trying to convince YouTubeTV to keep SNY and the YES Network.

I think you can get CBS Sports if you stream Paramount Plus. That should get you the Army broadcast in November.

Yep, the biggest issue when trying to cut the cord with cable is that they have you by the balls if you have any interest in following your local pro sports teams. ESPN used to be the other big one but now there are so many ways to keep up with sports highlights that even ESPN many die hard sports fans can do without now.

Any FCS game, actually, even if Merrimack and Yale make the playoffs. Army and BC are the two we could "afford" to lose. But let's prepare to win each week and hope Merrimack '21 and the narrow Lafayette win last year are blips on the radar. I have no doubt our depth, our strength, speed, and size are superior to most of our FCS opponents with the exception perhaps of Yale. That being said, Merrimack is a good team and we can't coast through. (Although as someone said, "everybody looks good vs. themselves at camp!")

Don’t show up for a 2pm start, you’ll miss half the game - all Yale home games start at noon

NESN hasn't been on YouTube TV for two or three years so no Red Sox or Bruins but I don't miss it.

What are we thinking crowd wise for the Merrimack game 10K or less? Or more?

What are we thinking crowd wise for the Merrimack game 10K or less? Or more? the Merrimack game in 2021, our home opener a week after beating UCONN, drew 8200. I think we’ll beat that this time
