2020 UConn projected game lines via Brad Powers’ power ratings

Tighter budgets caused by declining tax revenues is the biggest opponent that UConn FBS football faces.

The question facing UConn Administration is how many millions dollars of support is a 1 - 11, or 2-10, 3- 9 FBS team worth when that money lost on football could be spent on financial assistance to UConn students, or simply improving the academic footprint of the university since the UConn’s basketball program will shortly regained national prominence.

The move to independent was designed to make the program profitable. Ultimately, less travel saves $1M, buy games pick up $2 -$3M a yr and opponents fans want to see will improve attendance. We have discussed this ad nauseum in other discussions - the football program will be better and so will the revenue. While it won't be the bellcow that makes money for the rest of the athletic department, it won't be a drain.

I predict we go undefeated next year. Not a single loss!!!

ATS?

Those odds depress me.

When do we reach bottom?

We are competent next year or we move on from Randy. I’d say competent is 4 wins minimum.

Should already have been fired, but is allowed to muddle on for bargain basement pay.
