Playoffs On The Line As UNH Hosts Rival Maine

As if playing your arch rivals for the Brice-Cowell Musket isn't incentive enough, it could mean a playoff bid.

Thanks to a 24-14 win against Albany on Saturday, the Wildcats have now won three games in a row. It's significant because just a month ago, the season seemed to be a lost cause.

The Wildcats currently have the longest active streak in the country with 11 consecutive FCS playoff appearances. A victory over Maine on Saturday is needed to keep that streak alive.

UNH has a 4-3 record in the Colonial Athletic Association, and a 6-4 record overall.

So into Cowell Stadium on Saturday come the Black Bears. Game time is 1pm. As usual, it's the battle for the Brice-Cowell Musket. The Wildcats have won five straight verses Maine. They're certainly hoping to make that six to keep 2 streaks going.
