Taking UMASS here. Couple things. One, I know that Hawaii has a little rest as this is their first game of the year. Not like they are coming mainland days a head of time. But this is a haul. Rainbows wrapped up a bowl bid LY in their final game beating these guys 46-40 scoring with under 4 remaining. I like that we have a nice Jr. QB. We have experience at the K and P position. That for me, is big here. These aren't a pair of monster teams. So when one team is traveling what, 10 thousand miles with a pair of freshman kickers, I have to lean home team. So as I am writing this weeks prior to the matchup, I am obviously assuming we don't get any crazy injuries to rattle us. So again. I like our upper-classmen experience and think that will give us the advantage to score an opening day win. 4* Money Maker UMASS MINUTEMAN
