For a team that figures to win its games without large margins for error, success or failure, bowl-bid or home for the holidays in 2023, could rest on Joe’s toe. Or Noe’s. “Joe’s a heck of a competitor and so is Noe,” coach Jim Mora said. “I think Joe is at 100 percent, and he looks really strong, and Noe’s not going to give in.”<- [B]-> [/B]“Off the field, we’re friends and we joke around and stuff,” Ruelas said. “On the field, we both respect each other. We both know we’re both pretty good and we could both be ‘the guy’ and we’re both pretty good. So there’s a friendly competition out there, but there’s only one No.1. We’re both very competitive. … We could be in the conversation for some of the best special teams rooms in the nation.” A football team at any level is fortunate to have one kicker in which it can put its faith with a game on the line. At UConn, Ruelas and McFadden represent – would you believe it? – a luxury. Mora, looking for touchbacks and near-unerring accuracy inside 50 yards, estimated McFadden is slightly ahead at the moment – but what coach wouldn’t love having two trustworthy kickers going toe-to-toe? “You want guys on your football team that push each other to get better, but do it in a productive way,” Mora said. “Those guys are emblematic of that. It’s not often that you’d spend this much time talking about the kicking competition, but it’s a heck of a problem to have. It’s a [I]great[/I] problem to have.” <- [/QUOTE]
