We also closed with UMass in a Black Friday game back in 2001 after the original September 15 date was postponed following 9/11. Hadn't remembered that.

Thanks for picking me up. I didn’t see it when I looked, or remember it.

Go Spiders!

Was there at '81 game, too. Redden rushed for 280 yards. He was the offense.

I was there as well. Tear a way jerseys were the thing in those days and Redden went through a box of them that day.

Look for London to reach into his bags of tricks. He loves the gadget plays.

Parsons made its bones by admitting anyone who applied, early in the Vietnam War era when a student deferment kept you out of the draft. When that went away, so did Parsons.

There is obviously a W&M person there to steal the trophy. How else does one account for the yellow and green vehicle parked beside the trophy. Theft is the #1 (only?) means of W&M getting the coveted trophy.

Totally agree, plus I bet they throw deep on the first play from scrimmage.

That's why all such vehicles at Oregon State are Kubota. Orange, not green and yellow duck colors. My family's three rival teams (UO, Colorado State, W&M) all wear green & gold.
