Well Boys and Girls, we really need a victory today. Penn State is 4-0. Liberty is 4-0. Army is 2-2, but has out scored opponents 123-75. Toledo is 3-1 and is outscoring opponents 169-81. A loss today is going to make another tough season for UMass and Minutemen fans.
The Minutemen need to avoid another slow start. We led all the way against New Mexico State. Arkansas State is 78-154 in points scored. This is not a good team.
I think the UMass offense will do well. On defense, we need to stop giving up all those passing yards. Keep the ball in front of us today.
I'll be there cheering for the Minutemen. Go UMass!
