Episode 139 - Massachusetts Minutemen's football history

Today we discuss the college football history of the Massachusetts Minutemen. This program is one of the oldest programs in the history of college football and consequently, has history imprinted all over it. One national championship at the Div I-AA level, one coach who took the program to that promised land, five stellar coaches, one stunning win in the national championship game, one stunning loss in the national championship game, one stunning tie to derail the program’s first undefeated-untied season in 74 years, five stellar teams, one national championship team, running back who rewrote the program’s rushing records, one running back who was a TD machine, two exceptional quarterbacks, one FBS record setting receiver, one long-time rival, one of the four oldest FBS programs in the history of college football, one defense that allowed no first downs, one futile day of rushing, one defense who devastated an opponent’s rushing attack and of course, Sam the Minuteman.
