Game Day--Toledo--October 7th, 2023


 UMass start the "heavy' portion of our schedule this week. The Minutemen will face undefeated Liberty, undefeated Penn State and Toledo is looking for their fifth straight win. The Rockets only loss was by two points to Big Ten Illinois.

Toledo leads the MAC in scoring by a wide margin. The Rockets are good on defense too. They're leading the MAC in sacks and are third in points allowed.

QB Delquan Finn was injured during the Rockets' last game. If he can't play, it may slow Toledo down some.

The forecast for today is rain and possible thunder showers. It'll be a good day to run the rock and UMass has a pretty good rushing attack.  If UMass can get a couple of turnovers, it could be a competitive game.

I'll be cheering for the Minutemen. Go UMass!
