Blue is the color of choice tonight for the URI-UMass rematch.
Fans have been encouraged to wear Rhody blue for the game. The fact that it is on ESPN2 has meant more students than usual not only are wearing blue, but have their faces painted blue, too.
The Rams and Minutemen put on a fun show two weeks ago in Amherst with UMass winning 78-76. Chris Lowe, the UMass point guard, was the star of the game, shredding the Rhody defense for 23 points and six assists. It will be interesting to see how the Rams play Lowe tonight.
For the second game in a row, UMass is starting freshman Matt Glass at the off guard in place of Ricky Harrins. URI has Jason Francis back in the starting lineup at center.
