MassLive says ball security is job #1 for UMass today.
Matty V. says the Blue Devils bring option football to McGuirk today.

Delaware Online says the CAA race is wide open this year.
Like UMass, Richmond is on a two-game skid and the Richmond Times-Dispatch says it won't be easy for the Spiders today.

The big thing today is to squeeze the ball and stop hemorrhaging turnovers. In four games the Minutemen has fumbled 12 times, losing the ball six of them. We have also had 6 INTs.
UMass is tied for dead last in the CAA in turnover margin:
10.Rhode Island........ 4 1 4 5 3 7 10 -5 -1.25
Massachusetts....... 4 3 4 7 6 6 12 -5 -1.25
UMass is tied for #105 out of 120 teams in FCS in turnover margin. Let's have a good day of fundamentals and right this ship.
Go UMass!!!!
