Thought the write-up was very good. You mentioned how young our offense is by listing people mostly as sophomores, but our defense is just as young, if not younger except for the back field.

I am very concerned about our pass coverage, however we should be able to score plenty of points too. We need to manhandle them and get turn overs. We also need to put serious pressure on their QB so he hurries and makes mistakes.

I agree. I think "our boy" jests.

I think we should win up front on both sides of the ball. Maybe it will take a little time to wear down their OL, I don't know.

If our offense can develop a balanced attack I don't believe they can hold up to our offense.

Definitely worried about this one given our struggles to slow down any passing attack. The scoreboard operator may get a serious workout during this game.

I think the Rockets hang on and win by 7 in what will be a very entertaining game for those who like to see lots of offense. Key may be who scores first to establish a lead. If the Rockets do that, and then use a good ground game to run the click and keep the UMass offense on the sideline--oh, and we need to score TDs in our trips to the red zone--then I think we move on another week in the quest for a championship.

The dude is throwing 310 yds per game and is passing over 2tds per game. Not many of which the teams they have played have a worse passing defense. Let it not be a shock if umass has a lot of yards and some tds. Our fans should be happy with wins from here on out. Being mad at turnovers and self inflicted wounds is normal also.

Now that the scoreboard is on the flat panel they can easily add a 3rd digit to the opponents score field whenever necessary.

Nice to hear, take care and hope to see you next year in Amherst. With FUI scheduled for Amherst, one MAC team will be playing @ Gillette.

RE: UMASS preview - my view
UMASS is improving every game. That said, they have a very limited rushing attack and nobody has run the ball against the Rockets. The question is how much pressure can the Toledo defense put on the Minutemen's passing attack. If their QB has time it could be a wild one. Watching him play, one would never guess that he has not been a starter until this year. With limit playing time at Marshall and just 20 practices prior to the opener against Boston College, his progress has been off the charts.Four of their six loses could have gone the other way; those games were that close making a 2-6 team a 6-2 team without much of a stretch.

UMass has to force at least 3 turnovers if we have a chance in this one.
