Notes
Killed UMass, over 430 yds, Def played well
Coming off only bye into Nov & last 3 MAC gms
QB Ben Finley & RB Jordan Grant can play, OL Avg
Could get to 6-6? UMass, Kent, BG to finish
QB Finley missed Toledo game, ? for CMU game
QB Finley playing better but this Off is terrible
Offense somehow worse than anticipated, woof
This is not an FBS roster. Bad team
No bowl, no real bye, end on Nov 18th
WR A Adams was leader WR in '23, injury probs
