Competing in CAA Football, Maine owns multiple conference championships, including 2013 and 2018, and surged to the 2018 national semifinals. The program has sent talent to Sundays, from bruising fullback Patrick Ricard to defensive end Mike DeVito, and was shaped by longtime head coach Jack Cosgrove.

Rivalry week centers on New Hampshire in the Battle for the Brice-Cowell Musket, a trophy game that divides the border every year. Home Saturdays at Morse Field at Harold Alfond Sports Stadium bring crisp air, spirited tailgates, the Maine Stein Song, and Bananas T. Bear rallying a loud student section. It is an intimate, blue-collar atmosphere that rewards fans who love hard-nosed football.
