The 1993 UMass Minutemen football team represented the University of Massachusetts Amherst in the 1993 NCAA Division I-AA football season as a member of the Yankee Conference. The team was coached by Mike Hodges and played its home games at McGuirk Stadium in Hadley, Massachusetts. UMass finished the season with a record of 8–3 overall and 5–3 in conference play.

The matchup with rival Rhode Island was originally scheduled to be played as the Emerald Isle Classic at Fitzgerald Stadium in Killarney, Ireland. In August the game was relocated from Ireland to McGuirk Stadium in Hadley after it was determined the game would be a financial loss for each school.
