Minutemen Hit New Low
The Western Michigan Broncos came into Gillette Stadium winless and leave with a win. Unbelievable.
Coach Molnar took a huge gamble right before halftime. With the game tied 7-7 and the Minutemen facing 4th and goal on the 1-yard line with three seconds remaining, he decided to go for it. Lorenzo Woodley was stoned at the goal line and no points were awarded to the Minutemen.
UMass ended up chasing those points the rest of the game and it bit them in the butt. Decisions like this are what costs teams games...and sometimes coaches their jobs.
