2014 Home/Away Schedule

[Chin Diesel]

It looks like a ConferenceUSA schedule in drag. Not that there's anything wrong with that if you're into that type of thing.

I'm not in to CUSA scheduling at all.

I love the shedule. Some top OOC teams arriving, a good mix of Home conference foes and really good venues to visit on the road. Memphis, NO, are you kidding me? I can't wait to make reservations. I'm psyched. If this was the schedule and Coach P were still here I'd feel much differently, but something feels right about where we are headed. It's a new day and I can't wait for the Spring Game.

Strange we are missing Houston two years in a row.

I'm not exactly mad about it.

 

[DarthGrumpy]

Tulane does not scream 'great' football to me; but, it does scream great road trip for the guys.

So we have 7 true home games plus Army in NYC? Pretty sweet if you ask me.

Memphis is a great weekend trip. It's the central hub of American music. If you can play Memphis in a club on a Saturday night, you can play anywhere. It separates the wheat from the chaff. It's a place where the Beatles couldn't headline. It strips you away from your persona and makes your music speak for itself.

And there's some damn good food too.

Every music loving American should spend a month in Memphis. You will not leave the same as you entered.

I am hoping that game lines up well for a long weekend there… I am also thinking of a trip to London to see Sio in late September. I hope all these trips are doable!

I need that actual schedule!!

>>STORRS, Conn. (February 24, 2014) – The University of Connecticut football team will kick off its 2014 season before an ESPN national television audience on Friday, August 29 against BYU at Rentschler Field. Kickoff time will be 8:00 p.m.

The announcement reflects a date change for the game as it was originally scheduled to be played on Thursday, August 28.

“It is a great honor to be selected by ESPN to be the Friday night national game to begin the 2014 college football season,” said UConn head coach Bob Diaco. “The matchup between two nationally-recognized teams with UConn vs. BYU will provide an electric game day atmosphere at Rentschler Field. The excitement created with our new UConn team and fan experience will prove to make August 29th an unforgettable night at The Rent!”<<

FHCRE would have made a negative quote about playing on Friday, but coach BD just rolls with it.

And Pasqualoni would have complained that 8 PM was past his bedtime.

Wasn't Friday night Date Night for PP and GDL too?

 

[Waquoit]

Funny because hoops fans laughed me off the board for mentioning our game at Gampel opposite the Daytona 500.

And rightly so.

The problem with the conference is that there isn't anybody there that you really care about. Memphis? Tulane? SMU? It isn't like playing Syracuse Pitt and even Rutgers...You had a sense of connection with those teams and even a little history with some, though not much football history from UConn's perspective. East Carolina? Not so much.

Nailed it. It's a Conference USA schedule. I'll go. I'll have fun. But pardon me if I stiffle a yawn when thinking about the opponents (even if they do happen to be decent like UCF).
