The Black Bears are 64-57-5 all-time in season openers, including last year& #39;s 42-14 victory over Sacred Heart. Maine has won each of its last two season openers, capturing the coveted musket in 2018 with a win over rival UNH.

The & #39;Black Hole& #39; defense did what the & #39;Black Hole& #39; does as the unit held Sacred Heart to just 207 total yards while forcing a pair of fumbles.
