Week 6 Preview: Massachusetts versus Western Michigan


2:00 PM Massachusetts at Western Michigan:
This is a matchup of Mid American Conference teams in the Massachusetts Minutemen and the Western Michigan Broncos. UMass enters this game at 0-5 although they have played their two best games of the year in losses to Miami OH and Ohio. The Minutemen are playing better football relying on younger players to carry the load and paying off with the experience gained. Western Michigan enters this game at 2-3 on the season but struggled significantly with the loss of quarterback Alex Carder in the Toledo game. WMU is a solid football team but not anywhere near the same level without Carder. Defensively, the Broncos are a much better team than the Minutemen and may just be able to outscore UMass in one of the high- scoring shootouts the MAC is accustomed to. WMU 37-31.
