The Minuteman Command's Mike and Rene break down the final minute of the Buffalo game.
Enough already with the laments about the end of the Buffalo game. The important takeaway was that we were good enough to nearly beat one of the MAC's top teams. We were not even competitive earlier. The Buffalo game showed we can and should win some games.

UMass and UCF reschedule their 2026 game to 2029
This makes next year's schedule easier. UCF plays in the Big Twelve. They are 4-3 in 2025 and pounded West Virginia 45-13 in their last game.
So the 2026 UMass schedule looks like:
09/05 - at Rutgers
09/12 - Sacred Heart
10/24 - at UConn
11/28 - at Hawaii
That's an attractive schedule. Only one Power Five team and Rutgers is not Iowa or Missouri. Hawaii is 6-2 in the Mountain West and should be in our wheelhouse as a Group-of-Five team.
