UMass, coming off big win, travels to enigmatic Northeastern.

How good are the Huskies?

Northeastern struggled with Towson early on, but put them away by mid-third quarter....I'm guessing UMass will struggle with them....as they do most opponents.

And Northeastern beat UC-Davis 27-10, easier time with the Aggies than the Griz had.

The defense struggled in our first two games while the offense scored at will... (I'm not even going to consider the Texas Tech game)

Against Delaware, the running game was outstanding, but Liam Coen struggled with three pics that his fault...a fourth that was the receiver's fault...but the defense stepped up BIG to get the win...

I think this game, they come together...it won't be a blow out because Northeastern always plays us hard...but I do think we'll see a total team effort...

Enigmatic is a good word for Northeastern. I think they have a good chance to win this game, not because they are better than UMass, but because UMass may be in for a let down after beating UD.
