The step backwards this year is not very surprising. Call it sophomore slump. Mora is by far the best coach we have had at UConn. That includes the guy who snuck out in the middle of the night like a coward.

We are competitive week in week out. A couple of years ago we gave up 40 points a game while regularly being shut out. We are headed in the right direction even if 2023 has been a regression.

The thing that bothers me the most is the 27 missed tackles in the opener. Whatever the coaches were seeing in the preseason was a mirage. The team was NOT ready for the season. And make no mistake, these coaches thought they were ready. Maybe they believed their off season press clippings. I don't know. But how do the hell do you forget to teach your defense to tackle. That is unforgivable. And it started the spiral that became a nightmare.

Nothing to this point leads me to think we will not get run over by UT. But I still have hope we finish out the season 3-0 or 2-1.
