Prior to the 2007 season, the UNO Maverick soccer team hadn't suffered a road loss since August of 2005. After falling to bitter rival Truman State Saturday afternoon, UNO has lost their first three road contests of the season, and in frustrating fashion.
In Saturday's contest, the Mavericks owned the Bulldogs early.

The Maverick football season opened up with a tone setting 42-24 victory over cross-state rival Nebraska-Kearney on the road last Saturday night.
On Sept. 8 the Mavs will bring their victory home for a showdown with the Division II American Football Coaches Association's second-ranked team in the nation, Northwest Missouri State.

The Maverick football team and the Bearcats of Northwest Missouri State clashed in a highly ranked Division II rivalry game Saturday night. Early in the contest, the Mavericks caught a glimpse of déjà vu. Squandering several scoring opportunities in the first half, much like last year's contest, the Mavs trailed 21-6 at the break.
From the Bench

It was 5:30 p.m., a half an hour before Saturday's heavyweight bout between the Northwest Missouri State Bearcats and our UNO Mavericks, and I had just snagged a parking spot in front of the student center. What!? I found an open parking spot, on our campus, in front of the student center, a half hour before a football game? There was something special about this night, there had to be.
