Hartford, CT (Sports Network) - The fourth-ranked Connecticut Huskies continue a season-opening four-game homestand this evening, as the take on the Maine Black Bears in non-conference action from the XL Center. The defending national champions bring the nation's longest win streak into this contest, improving that mark to 13-0 with wins over Columbia (70-57) and most recently, Wagner (78-66).

In the FCS Huddle: Maine making most of fourth quarters Sun Oct 23 12:06:31 2011 EST
Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - When it comes to winning games in the fourth quarter, it's hard to say any team closes the deal better than the Maine Black Bears. Improving to 6-1, and a perfect 4-0 in CAA Football, Maine rallied back with 23 fourth quarter points to defeat Richmond, 23-22. Rallying from a 16-0 deficit at the end of the third quarter, Maine not only struck for three touchdowns but also returned a blocked extra point for two points, which proved to be the difference in a one

lar season and finished five games below .500 overall. The Wildcats are the lowest scoring team in the AEC (58.2 ppg), but they are tops in scoring defense (60.6 ppg). The final quarterfinal matchup should be a good one, as the third-seeded Maine Black Bears battle the sixth-seeded Hartford Hawks. Maine is coming off a loss in the regular season finale, but the club still finished in a tie for third place with Albany and owned tie-breakers over the Great Danes. The Black Bears are the most expl

Still, the d-line remains a strength and Pat Williams eats up ball carriers at linebacker. 7.

Syracuse, NY (Sports Network) - The eighth-ranked Syracuse Orange bring their four-game homestand to an end tonight, as they welcome the Maine Black Bears to the Carrier Dome for a non-conference clash. The Orange entered the season unranked, but a pair of upsets over Cal and North Carolina propelled Jim Boeheim's club into the Top 25. After seven wins, Syracuse is now No.8 in the nation and on its way to another big campaign. Most recently, the Orange trounced Colgate, 92-58, on Monday, markin

The first round on Friday pits the eighth-seeded Maine Black Bears against the ninth-seeded Hartford Hawks. These two teams split a pair of meetings during the regular season, and both of those contests were highly competitive. Hartford has won only six games all season and ranks last in the conference in

Norman, OK (Sports Network) - The fifth-ranked Oklahoma Sooners will play host to the Maine Black Bears in what appears to be a lopsided non-conference matchup. Oklahoma is a perfect 8-0 this season, and five of the victories have come in front of the home crowd. The team was most recently in action on Sunday when it cruised past Tulsa in a 69-44 final. With wins over Davidson, Purdue and USC by a grand total of 10 points, the Sooners have certainly proved that they are capable of beating formi

Prior to his NHL accolades, Dunham was named to the Hockey East First All-Star team in 1992-93 for the NCAA champion Maine Black Bears. He was a third-round draft choice of New Jersey back in 1990.

Nick Sucharski, Chris Snavely and Kim McKenzie all lit the lamp for the Spartans (25-14-3), who will play the winner of the North Dakota/Boston College game later on Thursday.
