The cloud cover is already broken up here in NH, so the weather should be fine by game time.
I'm looking for UMass to continue to run the rock. I exciting about seeing new RB's Cam Robinson and Kevin Brown play.
Looking for a crisper passing game with a continuation of spreading the receptions around.
On defense, we should be able to get some pressure on the QB against a FCS team. Better linebacker coverage when the defense rushes three men would be an improvement over last week.
The defense did force three turnovers last week. let's keep that going. West Virginia transfer Jordan Adams might be able to play and that will make the UMass defensive secondary even stronger.
I'm excited about hearing the UMass band and being back on the press box side of the stadium.
Let's go UMass!!
