UMass Football News--September 30th, 2022

 A Yahoo Sports writer thinks UMass will beat the spread against Eastern Michigan and might even have a chance to win.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

UMass is just behind the three service academies in run rate percentage.

Betting Pros says take the under in the Liberty-ODU game. The big news is Flames QB Kaidron Salter is dealing with a ankle injury. I've blogged before how he smoked Wake Forest's Power Five defense for 337 total yards. If he's gimpy on October 7th, the Minutemen might have a chance against the Flames.

Doc's Sports Service says take Miami to cover the spread against Buffalo.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If UMass could achieve a little passing balance in the Minutemen offense, we might be competitive in some of our remaining games in 2022.

Rushing defense national rankings:

  • Eastern Michigan #96
  • UConn # 101
  • Buffalo #105
  • Army #116
  • New Mexico State #117
