Woah! The UMass Marching Band will play at Michigan!

The Detroit Free Press says the Wolverines are not overlooking UMass.

MassLive.com says it's a different world out there. They also say Michigan is taking the game seriously.

WWLP22 says the football field at Michigan is still the same size as in FCS.

The UMass Daily Collegian says UMass is looking for an upset. They also say UMass has a major task in containing Robinson. Another Collegian columnist says the UMass Football team is already winning.

AnnArbor.com says the Minutemen want to follow the same path as James Madison.

The Detroit News states UMass is excited not awed.

UMass fullback Scott Duggan has been a lifelong Michigan fan.

The CAA weekly press release with all the league news here. The league site also notes the CAA has seven teams ranked in the top sixteen in FCS.

Craig Haley has the latest news from the FCS division in his "In the FCS Huddle column".

Josh Buchanan looks at the results of the 2010 FCS NFL Draft.

Here's one I have'nt seen before. The Dunkle Sports Index, which bills itself as "The most accurate sports index since 1929" has UMass as the #6 ranked team in FCS. And six CAA teams in the top 10...

They also have Michigan at #30, which is not going to make Wolverine fans happy.

Wow! Things have really been jumping here at UMass Football Blog Central!


Actually that's the defensive systems station on CVN 72, but the UMass football Blog's setup is almost as good :)

Blog traffic has doubled in the last week. I'm getting pro and anti Michigan e-mail. The trip to the Big House has certainly created a buzz about UMass football that I've never seen before.

Let's keep it up. Go UMass!
