UMass Football News--August 17th, 2023

 


Mike Traini of "Fight Massachusetts" previews the Minutemen's 2023 season.

UMass will win some games this season. IMHO, bowl eligibility is a stretch. We have not caught many breaks in FBS so far. Things would really have to go our way to make six wins. Two wins would be disappointing, three wins would be OK, four or five would be significant progress.

  • It's been 677 days since an FBS win (UConn 10/9/21)
  • It's been 1,419 days since an FBS win not named UConn (Akron 09/28/2019)
  • It's been 4653 days (11 years 8 months 5 days) since we had a winning season (6-5 2010 finishing on 11/30/2010)
  • It's been 18,513 days (50 years, 8 months, 8 days) since we played a bowl game (Boardwalk Bowl 12/9/72)
