UMass will have four nationally televised "MACtion" games in November. That should be a boost to the program in name recognition and recruiting---providing we're not 1-8 going into November.
The Minutemen don't play Toledo, Eastern Michigan, Miami (Ohio) and Ball State. The Toledo Rockets are usually in contention for the the league championship. Toledo lost the MAC Player-of-the-Year and MAC Offensive-player-of-the-Year to NIL, but still beat Pitt in their bowl game. We do get Akron and Kent State, two the MAC's weakest programs, but have to play both on the road.
