The Big East by the numbers is improved this year.
This team has some warts.
They will likely tie their record for league wins.
Something to hang your hat on after starting 10-16.
Just because they have won the regular season four years running does not mean it is easy.

Correction: 17-4 would be our best season in the league. 16-5 in ‘22, 13-4 in ‘21, 15-5 in ‘23
Xavier team in ‘22 was best we faced since we rejoined the league, but data says the league has improved this year.
Fair to say something to cheer for.

Forget the park although the natural grass is great. The fact that any Div. 1 broadcasting setup home/away within any game or conference is the issue. That’s what’s terrible imo. I happen to like the American Legion esque look it’s refreshing from the turfball epidemic within sports now. Cost saving I know! It’s the biggest BS excuse. That’s not directed at Uconn btw. Seeing highlights from a game played on grass is almost obsolete lol. Sad.
We're not talking about a lot of resources here. 9 out of 10 gamers do a better job broadcasting from their basements.

No, you shouldn’t be o.k. It’s a road game. Jones is broadcasting from the facility that the home teams provide him. How that reflects on UConn is beyond me.

Plus, normally when you check in less than 100 people are listening. The fact that the school is willing to pay anything to broadcast to less than 100 listeners is a gift to the fan base.
You sound like Randy Edsall.

I’d imagine his pitch count would very limited today.

I suspect Cooke's pitch count would likely depend on how effective he is in today's game. The better he does, the longer he will stay in the game.

If the coaches value the sweep and the belief like many pundits that their in as an at-large, I’d agree. If you think ur already in and maybe seeding is more important for a run in ncaa’s then perhaps maybe they limit him to 75-80.

Top 1st, with 1 out the UConn offense gets 2 singles to put runners on the corners. On a pick off by the pitcher, Tammaro gets caught off 3B for the 2nd out, Broadhurst advances to 3B during the play, he is left on base. No score.
