This has been mentioned by a number of other posters since Saturday, but the UConn Offensive Line really deserves a lot of credit for how they played against Houston.
The crew has taken a lot of flack all season because of poor play, but they really stepped up on Saturday.
5 tackles for loss and 0 (ZERO) sacks. This is also after losing Tight End Tommy Myers (critical to the blocking game) on the second drive of the game.
To put that in perspective in the previous two games @ Tulane and vs. ECU, the O-Line gave up 9 Tackles for Loss and 5 sacks.
In a game where there was zero margin of error, with our backup QB in the game, against a nationally-ranked undefeated team, this young group rose to the occasion.
Hat's off to the big boys.
