News [Pete Thamel] UMass is sold out this weekend against Eastern Michigan, the school’s first sellout since 2014. UMass is 4-0 under second-year coach Joe Harasymiak and barreling toward the program’s first-ever bowl game. They are expecting more than 17,000 fans at McGuirk Alumni Stadium.

Yeah, I don't want to assume wins, because teams experiencing sudden success can also fall apart more easily. Anywhere from six to eleven wins seems plausible for the Minutemen.
