Well, for the second year in a row, we went for a TD instead of trusting the kicking game. And for the second year, it didn't work. UMass wasted another big offensive performance and could not hold a lead.

Losing to a BCS team is expected. Losing to Bowling Green's killer offense is understandable. Losing to Miami (Ohio) is discouraging.

The Minutemen need to grit their teeth and bear down. Turnovers will kill you every time. We've played two league games and late turnovers decided both.
