Montana State favored by -13.5 at New Mexico on Saturday!! If the Lobos can’t come out on fire with that locker room material disrespect, looking at a LOOONG season. Goes to show you there's no difference between the top tier of the top two FCS conferences (Sky and Valley) and / or top 25 FCS teams and the bottom 40 (or so) FBS programs.

I wouldn't be surprised if this is the widest pre-game spread ever for an FBS-FCS game in which the FCS team was favored. As common as FCS over FBS upsets are, it's actually REALLY rare for FCS teams to ever be favored.

Per Sam Herder yesterday:
“Biggest FCS over FBS favorite since ODU was favored by 14 @ Idaho in 2013, although ODU was an FCS team transitioning to FBS that year”
And interesting 10+ years later, Idaho back and relevant in FCS.

Yeah, that'd be me - tier 2 - as that's my pick.

Speaking of Idaho, I recall them being favored at Nevada (by a TD maybe?) last season. They crushed the Wolfpack.

It's a bit confusing, will it air on Channel 6 and/or ME TV? But it looks as though if you live in Southern NE you will be able to watch the HC-URI game on TV and save yourself dealing with Flo Sports etc www.abc6.com/uri-home-games-coming-to-metv/

Just bought my tickets to the Bryant game and believe I was the very first based on the countdown clock! General Admission tickets are $15 apiece. Parking is $20, plus they hit me with a $4.60 "Advanced Booking Fee." See? The early bird doesn't catch the worm, gets penalized for being early. Appears from the stadium diagram and my memory from the past, that the visitor side is like at Holy Cross (i.e. lower and across from the press box that is on the home side). Let's get a sea of purple there!

I think where I am in SEMA it's the WCVB Boston run MeTV not the Providence based ABC affiliate

I just realized yesterday that the URI game is 7pm Saturday. Has Meade hosted night games before?
Was actually hoping to bring the family out to Kingston for a day game but 7pm isn't going to work with a 4 year old and an infant, especially when you factor the 3 hour drive home.

They've had night games dating back to the 2019 season, which is when lights were installed.

My experience so far about parking passes for games is that they are generally as much or more than general admission tickets. Here's a theory. A game ticket lets 1 person in to the game per ticket. A parking pass might have as many as 6 or more people (you big van folks out there).
Now, I realize that like me, most cars will only have 2-4 people but rarely just one. So, jack up the price, right?
I haven't had a chance to look it up but believe my parking pass for Harvard is as much or more than the game ticket. URI, about the same.
HC garage parking is more than my reserved game tickets.
It would seem this is now standard practice.

HC garage parking is more than my reserved game tickets. It would seem this is now standard practice. Age discrimination. Isn't parking in the Hart Center lot and on College Street still free on game day? A senior discount for the garage would be equitable because on average older people can navigate the hill on foot less easily through no fault of their own. When my buddy with M.S. attended a few years ago, parking was free in the garage with a handicapped placard and there is an elevator right down to ground level.
