Game Day-- Bowling Green

Well, the weather is improving. It's already 61 degrees here in Jaffrey and the Gillette weather says showers this morning and partly sunny with a high of 75 by this afternoon!

Despite the non-threatening name, Bowling Green is a solid club. The Falcons have held four of the teams they played to 13 points or under. They held Florida to 14 first downs and 365 total yards in the the Swamp. That's pretty impressive!

The Falcons definitively have more and bigger athletes than UMass does in our first year in FBS. But so did Ohio and Miami (Ohio) and we gave them a good game.

Come out on Homecoming and cheer for the Minutemen. One of these games we're going to break through and you'll want to be able to say "Hell, I was there!"

Go UMass!!!
