I purchased the 1978 UMass Football press guide off E-Bay. It's in good shape after 38 years. The 1978 squad took UMass to the first FCS National Championship game. I've added five or so scans of the contents to the UMass Historical Scans section of the Blog. It's a great addition to my collection of UMass press guides and game programs.
The '78 press guide has bios of the coaches and players. I've included the "preview" section. Checkout the 230 pound offensive linemen who took us to the National Championship game.
