Don’t forget the traveling fans. Fiesta Bowl ring a bell?

Way too early to start this. From where the program was to having a couple bad games is hardly putting Mora on the hot seat. This is very different from what we’ve seen in the RE era. The team is competitive. We should be 3-0. In the last two games, the team was in the drivers seat. The team...

Running Game? 2nd game in a row they couldn’t get a first down to seal the game.

In the last series, it was basically run run run. But edwards had a nice 25 yard run and a 7 yard run. They did get to the Syracuse 39 before the drive petered out. They definitely moved the ball. They just stalled out. Yes, it was conservative but it did work to an extent.

Haven’t lived there in 30+ years. That’s what it was called back then. If you have a house and are raising kids, really not such a bad thing.

Why does the programs existence hinge on every outcome? Do you really think Yormark or Phillips is going to say ‘Wow, nice win, want to join now?’ You don’t think UConn has made drastic improvements under Mora? You don’t think UConn has changed the narrative on its program? everyone that...

Curious, do people realize this is the obvious feeling of most people that support UConn fb, and dormant really need to be said? I’m sorry, I disagree with that 100%. Up 11 points, about 5 minutes left, the clock is your advantage. You eat the clock. Run the ball. Wait until 1-2 seconds to...

Thanks. Props to Simsbury!

Not sure whether to applaud the kids ability to hold on to the ball after taking a huge hit or inability to call fair catch. I think it is Hogg, but man that kid took some hits and held into the ball. Not once but several times. Gonna be sore today

I thought this was a very close game. Our defense made some great plays in first half and we showed some speed we haven’t seen in a while. The game came down to whether UConn could eat up the clock and move the ball late in the 4th. They didn’t. Surprised given our talent at RB. I...

Of course they do. It’s just lame that after a loss, some people feel the need to question the programs existence. Especially after the progress made last year. The fact you bring it up is telling.

It’s a loss. Everyone was walking out with 11:00 to go. I said to the guys in front of us, this is UConn, anything can happen. Game is far from over. Painful. It was an oppty for great win. Whatever. Still going to be fun season.

I agree with you sort of. I like Mora and this staff. But the offense got a little bland. Players need to make plays, but I don’t think this was a great coached game. We had so many chances to eat clock. Didn’t get it done. They’ll learn from this. Game isn’t over until clock hits zero in...

Disagree. Learning to win in situations like that is a process. Team played well. Made some plays to get them in a position to win. Then they puckered. Offense play calling also got very conservative. Team has some pieces. Tough learning. Hopefully Mora and staff get the most of this.

On this logic, MLB should just put Yankees and Dodgers in WS every year. Let Boston, Cleveland, and Detroit play in a fall series and give them a fake trophy. This is nothing more than schools trying to create more advantages for success at the expense of others, ie a money grab. it erodes...
