UMass's Michigan Preview Video

http://www.umassathletics.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/091410aad.html

Found this while strolling around the Umass blog, which is better than many blogs I have seen for some big time FBS teams. Although it is still horrible. 

If someone could embed this that would be great.

Ya they seem to be really excited about their ground game but their two RBs combined for 4.6 YPC in their first game and 4.4 YPC in the second. 

Now this isn't horrible, but if they plan on relying on the run game to keep the ball away from DRob and move the chains consistently, I think they have a problem. 

If Martin, Roh, Mouton, Ezeh, etc play well, UMass's RBs are going to take a big hit to their stats.

That was wishful thinking to pump up their fan base.

If we're 5-0 we break it verses MSU. Iowa will re-break it if we are 6-0 and possibly regardless. 

Wisconsin has a chance for a record too depending on the circumstances both for both teams.

Because of the schools that closed around there recently, and the fact that UMass is a #1 choice destination for transfers from BCS schools, we're not going to see a tasty McCupcake here. This school could probably pull off a decent season in the MAC. Do NOT look past them. We will probably need to play the first team defense at least half the game.
