    Uconn-BC Pregame in Chesnut Hill

    There will be plenty of tickets available on the secondary market. BC is scheduled to play Clemson and Notre Dame at home this year, so season tickets sold out. Clemson and ND fans will be selling and add in the fact BC is having a bad year and you can get tickets for $11 on StubHub.

    3 TDs on 22 Touches

    Rosa is elusive in the open field and he is at his best getting the ball in space.

    Lashlee was never going to stay at UConn for more than 1 season.

    OT: Big Ten discussing $2 billion private capital deal

    Here is the math. Take the cash upfront, invest it, and then pay a negotiated return to PE, say 8%. Then PE leverages that to get a relatively risk free 12%. How does PE cash out? If they want, they can then sell the deal to another PE group, a group of high net worth individuals, or a...

    Would Lashlee even want the job?

    Just for fun…what if?

    With the portal, you will see QBs available that never would have committed to UConn out of high school. That is why you should offer some top QBs and try to build a relationship if his P2 experience doesn't pan out. Last year, Syracuse benefitted from getting Ohio St. QB Kyle McCord who was a...

    2025-26 Coaching Carousel

    Pittman was 32-34 and was in his 6th season. They have a bye this week, so now was the time to do it. Petrino is a better coach than Pittman so why not give him a tryout for the rest of the season?

    Uconn-BC Pregame in Chesnut Hill

    My recommendation is to put some beers and maybe some sandwiches in a bag and look for a tailgate to join. There will be some UConn fans that are tailgating and some BC fans will invite you to join them.

    The View From Section 241 — Buffalo

    Chief, subscribe to PFF so you can see better football stats. Rosa fumbled 3x in 2022 and 2x in 2023. Last year, there were 3 RBs who seemed to be better than Rosa in Robinson 6.8 ypc, Edwards 5.7 ypc, and Brown 5.7ypc and Rosa has averaged 4.9 ypc over his career. This year, especially with...

    The problem at UCLA is support and money as they have been running large deficits. Joining the Big 10 will help, but it just doesn't seem like they are committed to athletics.

    2025-26 Coaching Carousel

    I think CR is a small part, but it seemed like Mike Gundy was tired and he struggled to adjust to the portal/NIL era and on field performance suffered. And, I have to wonder if T Boone Pickens not being around to help fund/lead OSU athletics is also impacting football.

    Key tweets, and it's all gone to Hell.

    The ACC will have an unbalanced schedule with either 4 or 5 home ACC games every year. So, for a school like Duke, they will target 6 home games every year. In years they have 5 ACC home games, they will probably play 2 road OOC games as Duke is not going to be able to get any quality OOC...

    Defensive Stats: 2025 vs 2024

    Four games into the season, it's pretty clear that the defense is not performing as well as last year, so I looked up the stats for comparison. What really stood out to me is that the defensive stats are a downtick across the board with the exception of sacks, tackles for a loss, and passes...

    Key tweets, and it's all gone to Hell.

    Before everyone thinks the sky is falling, I would assume they will start this is 2027. So, I looked at our ACC opponents, and, low an behold, it looks like they already planned for this. Bottom line is that most of the games appear safe for UConn. Duke: Schedule meets the requirement for...
