Blue & Gold

Brandon Lee looked good. Love Bubba. I've been a Bubba fan since his junior season at Aurora. Glad to see a local guy perform so well.

Our best DB, our best OL, and our best DL?!

ABJ/GT: Zips to start season with a bang against Illinois

What on earth? UMass was leading Rutgers 21-7. Then Rutgers scored 31 unanswered points... in the second quarter ?

MaxPreps lists his jersey as #11.

We're such a deep team. No Carlo Ritaccio nor Colin Biros in your starting 11, eh?

Exhilarating ?

Looks like the TE won't be a mere afterthought in the new system. A little surprised seeing Nick Johns @ #2 TE. Good for him. Sure wish Jonah Morris & Julian Hicks weren't banged up. Our current top 3 WR's are proven commodities, but the #2's are all unknowns. [Edit: 2 of the 3 #2's; Boogie Knight's a known home run hitter.] Having said that, I'm excited to see true freshman Michael Mathison in the 2-deep @ WR & @ punt & kickoff return. Nice seeing true freshmen Xavier Gray & Kyshad Mack make the 2-deep! Reggie Corner Jr. starting NB & Bubba #2 Inside LB. They moved Jalen Hooks from S to CB & he won the starting job. When he & Lubin (#2 CB) are on the field at the same time we've got some impressive height at CB. Alvin Davis? Not so much. Lol. He'll just have to settle with being the best player on the field. Lol.

ABJ: Zips' defensive success could depend on leaders stepping up Article focuses on John Lako & Alvin Davis, while also mentioning Shawn Featherstone & Josh Ward.

I haven't seen a link to listen on demand, but at least it will be re-aired.
