UMass vs Bowling Green Prediction 

Both of these teams come into this matchup really struggling right now, but UMass is still looking for their first win of the season. The Minutemen have allowed at least 38 points in four straight games, but they will face a Bowling Green offense that has scored 21 or fewer in five straight. Bowling Green has had major problems passing the ball this year and even against a bad UMass defense, I think those struggles will continue. I know it may sound crazy, but I think this is a spot that UMass can get their first win, as Bowling Green just tries to finish the season on the road. Take the Minutemen here.
