UMass made the decision to play big-time football. This season will certainly be a growing process. The team is 0-3 and has been hammered by UConn 37-0. Indiana 45-6 and Michigan 63-13. The team is definitely in over it's head, but looks towards the future.
There is one consolation in the 50 point loss to Michigan. I never wager on sport, but for those who do, there was some interesting numbers from the game. I thought it was absurd that the point spread was 45 1/2, but UMass lost by 50. The over and under was 53, but the game had a total of 76 points.
In spite of the huge loss, it was a great idea to play Michigan. UMass got a lot of national exposure and also picked up a huge game check for traveling to Ann Arbor to take a beating. Michigan was more than happy to do it and get a win against a soft opponent. That's how college football works.
