The Owls are a step up from Stony Brook. I'd like to see continued UMass improvement in the application of what Coach Brown preaches. I'm hoping for continued improvement in the passing game. Temple is #18 in the country in total defense and #46 in rushing defense. Run offense is what UMass wants to do. Temple is #114 in passing efficiency defense, so 150 yards passing would be really nice. Maybe give Brady Olsen more than one series.
On defense, the Owls are in our wheelhouse. They are ranked worse than #100 in every offensive category. Temple is starting a true freshman QB. Don Brown's defense should be effective.
As usual, I'll be watching and cheering for the Maroon and White. Go UMass!!
