Will we see offensive linemen being pushed back and the pocket collapsing? This, i'ts our bad offensive line vs. bad Uconn defense. I think we win out this week though.

With our Oline nothing is a given. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he is a true freshman but he was pretty highly rated as a recruit and is listed as the Backup at Center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sagarin's computer rankings has UMASS 36 spots BELOW Elon. I will be very disappointed if our backups don't get some work in on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe he played some in the Elon game. Will have to go back and check the tape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this game will be closer than it should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are probably going to sell out to stop the run, since it worked for ECU. They can't cover us downfield though, and I don't think they have the ability for their blitzes to hit home quickly / often enough for it to matter. We will move the ball against these guys. This is probably a "need to pass in order to run the ball" game, and I suspect that we won't have a problem doing that. Especially if we come out of the gate slinging the ball and score quickly. On the flip side -- our secondary should have very few problems covering these guys. If we limit their success on first and second down, this could get ugly really fast for UMass. My guess is we give up 3 or 4 20yd+ passes, but they fail to capitalize on the chuck yards due to inefficiency at moving the ball. This is the type of game where our team speed will make these guys look silly... and the fake turf always seems to benefit the faster guys.

Like the team was exhausted and let their foot off the gas. Wasn’t that always the thing with Leavitt and later season swoons? Yes depth was not great but practice was so overwhelming it wore them down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
