This may be the most difficult game UMass has played since the start of the season. Just the time and travel adjustments are tough.
However, I think the UMass defense will play well. If UMass matches the physical effort that the Hornets will provide, I like the Minutemen's chances.
You know of course, if UMass does lose a game, all the students and bandwagon people will immediately jump off. UMass has already achieved a lot this season, and a loss does not derail the chance for a bowl game and a FBS-era record number of wins. One game at a time..
I'll be watching the game on ESPN+ and cheering for the Minutemen.
Go UMass!!
