Based on the last post I put up, you’d think I wouldn’t have spent Saturday’s games on pins and needles as the Cardinals got down early, stormed back late, and held on in the final moments to win another MAC contest against the Central Michigan Chippewas. That, unfortunately, was easier said than done. The game [...]

Well that certainly wasn’t the outcome I expected. Shades of last year’s Homecoming implosion were in my mind as I watched Temple totally dominate the Cardinals on Saturday to the tune of 42-0. There really isn’t much to say in this particular recap, as those at the game saw the Cardinals outmatched pretty much all [...]

For Coach Lembo, this one got to focus on the Oklahoma game for the Cardinals and looking forward to Temple for Homecoming.

1-0 in the MAC and one step closer to Detroit and the MAC Championship. Pretty? No. A 3 TD blow out as I called? No. A win? Yup. Feels good? Damn yes. All that needs to be said… all we do is win.

Not all Saturdays were created equal. In fact, I can’t remember a Saturday I looked forward to as much as this one for a while now. Sure, the season opener makes me giddy. Last week’s trip to South Florida set my heart aflutter. But this weekend is big. Gigantic. Enormous, I would dare say. It’s [...]

So, this past weekend didn’t go as expected for the Cardinals, but Saturday is (at least in my mind) far more important as a game than the USF contest. Saturday marks the first MAC game for the Cards, the first home game, and in all honesty, this game is going to speak volumes about what [...]

Each Monday, the MAC coaches gather via teleconference to chat about their last week’s game and this week’s opponent. For Coach Lembo, today marked the first MAC teleconference after a loss, so clearly that’s going to get talked about. Coach Lembo also talks about what folks learned, how to improve, and looks ahead to Buffalo. [...]

Every Monday for the past few years, we’ve been lucky enough to be part of the MidAmerican Conference Coaches’ Teleconference. Today was a special one though, as it not only marked the first one of this season, it was also the first time many Cardinal fans will get to hear the dulcet tones of awesome emanating from [...]

So the move that everyone in the MAC universe has been whispering about for the better part of six months finally came to fruition today as UMass has been invited and subsequently accepted a football-only membership to the MidAmerican Conference beginning in 2012. Minutemen fans shouldn’t go preordering hotel rooms in fabulous Detroit for the [...]
