Chris’ Pick

I’m going to take a shot here on UMass. I think the Minutemen have played the better football this season against the better schedule and it’s going to take more than a win over Sacred Heart for me to forget about how disappointing UConn’s been this season. It’s still hard to fathom that this was a bowl team last year. Either way, Not one I’m rushing to bet, but I’ll back the Minutemen with the points here.
