SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT
We at UNH know these are challenging times. We continue to look for ways to provide access to in-person opportunities, but for now, no spectators are permitted at any athletics game, inside or out. We know this is disappointing for many of you. All three UNH home football games will be broadcast live on NBC Sports Boston and streamed online. For your safety and the safety of the student-athletes and team staff, enjoy watching the game remotely.

QUICK HITTERS
Friday will be the first game on the sidelines for UNH head coach Sean McDonnell since Nov. 17, 2018 (24-21 loss at Rhode Island), and the first time on the Wildcat Stadium sidelines for a game since Nov. 10, 2018 (24-10 vs. UAlbany).
New Hampshire returns seven starters on both sides of the ball. On offense, that includes the quarterback, running back, two wide receivers and three offensive lineman; last year's leading rusher and receiver were lost to graduation. On defense, the Wildcats return three defensive linemen (one end, both tackles), a linebacker and three safeties.
New Hampshire has a 5-3 lifetime record against UAlbany and that includes last year's 24-17 road loss at Casey Stadium. The Great Danes have won three of the last four matchups. In the most recent meeting at Wildcat Stadium, UNH prevailed 24-10, in November 2018.
UNH has an 18-5 lifetime record at Wildcat Stadium (opened in the 2016 season) and that includes 12-4 against conference opponents. The 'Cats went 5-0 at home in 2019.
Since 2008, UNH has a 60-10 home record (.857 win percentage) that includes 41-7 (.854) against CAA teams.
UNH is 14-1 the past 15 home openers; the lone blemish was in 2018, when Colgate left town with a 10-3 win. It also includes the first ever meeting between UNH and UAlbany on Sept. 20, 2008, when the Wildcats were 32-24 victors.
The Wildcats went 2-2 against nationally-ranked teams in the 2019 season. Since the start of the 2015 season, the 'Cats have a 9-10 mark against nationally-ranked teams.
