A win is a win

I was really nervous .. Defense, though winded from being on the field all day, pulled through. The offense has got to get something done. Yes it lead a td but more often than not its a liability.. Scrapp it and make mcummings a short yardage back. Our offense should not rely so heavily on an undersized back to draw the d in and then once in a while throw a bomb. It's highly ineffective. Where are the out routes, the cross routes, the cut backs? It's clear this coaching staff simply doesn't trust his qb. Give him opportunities at short quick passes... Get him into the flow. Deleone just kills any momentum before it starts.... Absolutely hurts this team with his god awful play calling.

They are getting Whitmer acclimated to the FBS, it seems. Whitmer did not do too bad. He has composure, at least.

A win is a win, and a road win is a little more significant.

I think the wildcat was just successful enough that we won't see it go away. I know a lot of yarders will be unhappy about that, but Whitmer isn't ready to shoulder the whole load yet and if the coaches feel McCummings poses even a partial threat to the opposing DC they're going to keep using him.

I'll take it. Now going forward ..... Fire Dele-dumass, fire PPzzzzzz, hire a Mike Leach prototype. Do it all tonight. These coaches are setting UConn back. No wonder major conferences don't see the overall, all sports value of UConn. But nobody wants to see this abysmal understanding of offense. P retire please.

We wouldn't have won without the wildcat- hate to admit it. They say if you have 2 QB's then you don't have a QB. That pertains to our Offense. We have 2 offenses for a reason.

Actually a win against the ACC and particularly Md is better than most. Hopefully Jessie is OK.

Dude, we just beat our ex-head coach at his "dream job". UConn is P's dream job.

Disagree. It caused as many problems as it solved. Inside the 15 or short yardage I can stomach it but it has put us in some terrible spots and hurt our new QB imo. Our playcalling is horrible and we were fortunate to survive it.

The playcalling is an issue but we aren't going to win right now with just Whitmer at QB. He isn't showing any ability get get the ball down the field. It's all TE's and RB's even if they are covered. It's way early in his career but this part of the game is not there so far.

Any win is a beautiful thing. Lesson today is the same as every other game in last 5 years. Need an Offense that takes pressure off a strong defense. Just don't have the running game to do it, but there are flashes of hope with the pass game.

Let's hang in there and give them a chance.

Please give it a break - PP and Del are going nowhere. We won the damn game for god sake.

Correct me if I am wrong but I was screaming at my TV about the wildcat just before McCummings broke a 20 yard run in the wildcat on our last drive for a TD - no ?

Jeez, I dunno. This team looked pretty discouraging to me. MD is not a good team, playing a lot of true freshman. Right about now I'd be more optimistic if I was a MD fan than a Uconn fan. MD looks like it has hope. We do not.

I could understand this if Whitmer was not in his first year.

MD has that Diggs freak of nature. We play them again next year.

Then let them run the band. Same tune all game long, all season long. Save on sheet music.

I am not disagreeing with you about the play calling but it is Whitmer's first year.

And TDH playing the same tune all year long as well...

OK, Whitmer was supposed to be a pretty good JUCO. Perry Hills is a true freshman. You didn't think he looked better than Whitmer?

Not much better. If not for their little freshman speed guy - who's name escapes me right now - they did little on offense.
