Game Day Ball State--November 12th, 2014


Well, there is a chance of showers early today, but clearing by afternoon. Cloudy late, but cloud cover will keep it warmer.

This is the start of the home stretch for the Minutemen. UMass' offense gives us a chance to win all three of the remaining games. As UMass fans, we've had to put up with a lot of snark the last three years. Closing 2014 with a win streak would be balm to my maroon & white soul. Hope to see everybody there and waive the the ESPN cameras!

Go UMass!!!
