In his defense (edit: if you want to call it that, maybe this makes it worse), I don't know if even the most optimistic and delusional UMass fan could have seen this coming, especially the way it happened. If they had lost on a Hail Mary or last-second FG that'd be one thing, but they got flat out dominated. UMass looked like *they* were paying Rutgers $1.5M to get beat, not the other way around
