Yesterday’s 45-28 win over UMass was not the cleanest performance, and it left plenty to feel rightly concerned about. But let’s wrap the weekend with some optimism, and focus on seven things to feel positively about after the win:

If there’s one thing that ended up being unsatisfying in last week’s blowout win over Colgate, it was the run game, which averaged under three yards a carry even against an FCS opponent. It was a different story this week. And though, yes, it’s only UMass, you could see from watching Pat Garwo that he’s shifty and tough and has the ability to break for yardage even when it looks like he’s going to get bottled up.
