The Minuteman Command has the latest Flagship Podcast featuring Christian McCollum and Rene Ingoglia.
The guys make some good points in this issue. I agree Joe Griffin has not had a breakout receiving game so far. He's a bad match-up for most MAC defensive backs. It would be great if UMass can get him going in the last three games. The WR combo of Griffin, Ty Harding and Kezion Dia-Johnson are the most potent we've had in FBS.
As for tonight, the Rockets have long been one of the MAC's best teams. UMass' last win over Toledo was in 1978 and the Minutemen have never won in the FBS era.
Still, UMass is a much better team this year and both Sacramento State and Buffalo gave the Rockets a hard time. If UMass cuts down on mistakes, the Minutemen could win this one.
I'll be watching and cheering for the Minutemen. Go UMass!
