Game Day --Army November 20th, 2021

 

UMass will be their road all-whites today.

Another tough match-up game with Army. The Minutemen have struggled with defending the run and the run game is what Army does. 

In 2019, the Black Knights rang up 498 yards rushing, 34 first downs and 63 points. The Minutemen offense was non-existent that day. UMass only had 7 first downs and 125 yards of total offense. Army ran it up a little, scoring with 13 seconds left. Being up 56-7 they could have taken a knee.

UMass could do better today by generating some offense. Army's clock-eating run game means we won't get a lot of chances. The Minutemen need some spark from the passing game and need some third-down conversions. 

The game is available on the CBS Sports Network carried by a lot of cable companies. I'll be watching and cheering for the Minutemen.

Go UMass!
