Despite Loss UAlbany Continues to Build FCS Power
Saturday’s loss to Maine, 38-34, was certainly disappointing for the Great Danes. UAlbany, ranked #13 in the national FCS polls, was coming off of an impressive win over then-ranked #14 New Hampshire. The Black Bears, on the other sideline, were licking their wounds after getting completely blown out by #19 Delaware, 37-0 last Saturday. Logic may have predicted a UAlbany victory in Orono. This is the fall season of 2020 being played in March of 2021. This is CAA (Colonial Athletic Conference) football. Throw in a seven and a half-hour team bus ride and all logic goes out the window.
