Is this real life? Did we really just beat Baylor two years in a row? With this dog shit coach?

In know I'm harping on Boise/Wyoming, but Brian Hill (Wyo) and Jeremy McNicholls (BSU) are both going to be Sunday backs. I knew about McWeapon, but Hill is really impressive. 21-17 BSU in the 3rd.

Who goes to Wyoming? NDSU rejects?

They're about to beat Boise and save a bowl spot for P5

(Tie game ball on 50, under 2 to go)

So it seems like you all missed it, and I can't say I blame any of you for not paying attention to Rhode Island football since they haven't had a winning season since 2001, but they might have actually hit rock bottom yesterday, losing 84-7 to James Madison in a conference game. And it easily should have been worse, with a first and goal at the two with nine minutes to go, JMU took a knee four times. Stat of the game, URI had four completions and threw five interceptions. It can't be November 11th and the start of college basketball season fast enough in Kingston.

I just don't know how there was a team this bad in NE and BC didn't find a way to get them on the OOC schedule

They need to drop from the CAA and go to the NEC, if not kill the program altogether. They have zero chance in the CAA to be remotely competitive. The NEC gives them a glimmer of hope - as faint as it seems.

It's unfortunate that A-10 can't cobble together enough teams to sponsor football. They have 6 football-playing members although only four give scholarships. Seven is enough for a league, but realistically you need 8 in case a team departs unexpectedly

They planned on going to the NEC years ago but backed out at the last minute. I wonder if URI would be given a second bite at that apple.
