[Foxboro] Indiana's fans watched what was nothing more than a laugh-er as they watched their Hoosiers ripped a part buy the UMass Minutemen. The Minutemen were considered the underdogs, even by ESPN's Gameday crew. They ate those words by halftime. UMass came out strong with a read option that Pagel kept and ran for 26 yards. It was a beautiful opening drive capped by a Pagel touchdown throw to Hill on a seam route. The defense never knew what hit them. In football, many argue whether it is the run that sets up the pass, or the pass that sets up the run. On this day, UMass did it both ways. They kept the Hoosiers on their heels. The second half was the same.

In the second half, Indiana decided to go with their back-up QB Roberson. In an attempt to capitalize off of his versatility and speed, Indiana resorted to options, screens, and draws. The only thing that appeared to bail them out at tough times were the draws. Roberson's 1 TD pass came from a blown coverage as they went no huddle for most of the second half.

The defense brought pressure all game, which is evident in the 13 hurries, 5 sacks, and 4 interceptions with 1 being taken to the house for a TD by CB Birt. When asked about the intensity of the defense, coach Wilson responded, "My defensive players don't touch the field unless they see red! And today, they saw red for every second that was on the clock! I couldn't be more pleased."

We saw HB Cox go down with another injury, this time it was his shoulder. He was forced to sit out for 2 quarters. In that time, HB Williams put up more yards on 4 less carries than Cox. One would think that if this becomes a trend, we may see more of Williams.......Maybe even as a starter.

Next week UMass travels to Ann Harbor to take on the #3 Michigan Wolverines.
