Monday before the Northeastern Game--11/02/09

Maine finally has its UMass game article up.

Matty Vautour says for the second straight year Maine likely derailed UMass' playoff hopes.

More on the game that ended Albany's eighteen conference win streak.

For the first time in two years a FCS team has received votes in the AP Top-25 list. It's Richmond.

UMass in #11 in the CAA in pass efficiency

11.Massachusetts....... 8 games 283/150 53.0% 19-INT 1954-Yards 10-TD 109.2 EFF


We are also #11 in turnovers

11.Massachusetts....... 8 games (gained 5-Fum 12-INT 17-Total) (Lost 7-FUM 19-INT 26 Total -9 Margin -1.12-per game)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One thing that would help UMass turn this season around would be to get the running game back on track. We had 62 rushing yards against Richmond and 82 against the Black Bears.

If you can run the ball, pretty generally you then have a good lookin' quarterback.

Northeastern is last in the CAA in rushing defense, giving up 205.1 yards per game. This would be an excellent time to work on the running game.
