Tulane vs UMass Game Preview

Why UMass Will Win

Former head coach Don Brown has returned to try to revitalize the program.

It’s an experienced bunch with enough on offense to do a whole lot more – the running game has the potential to be a problem – and there’s enough through the transfer portal to upgrade the passing game a bit.
