BC UConn Change Dates For 2022 and 2023 Games

Apparently UConn didn’t care for the Fenway experience according to the Hartford courant podcast a few weeks ago.

Save Fenway for a potential venue for ND

Could UConn and BC schedule a football game every year around Thanksgiving -- maybe at Fenway -- may get more fan attendance than any UMass UConn holiday rivalry.

Football games at baseball stadiums really sucks. I don't care if UConn was playing the Patriots at a baseball stadium, I've gone to my last football game in a baseball stadium.

 

[HuskyHawk]

Aside from the things already said about Army and UMass potentially freeing up for us, one other thought. When UConn needed to move existing games so we can fit in other games, BC accommodated us. That’s a change from the old regime. Bodes well for the future.

No and No!

Maybe it was the sight of the grounds crew running into the field during each timeout to try and pound the loose infield turf back into place. If there are no roots holding it down, pounding it with heavy tamping tools won’t help.

As a UConn fan it wasn't much fun either. Nice to visit Fenway, but the sightlines for football were lousy, the weather sucked that night, and UConn got their butts kicked yet again. It was still worth giving up the home game for the extra $$, though. Glad they are continuing the series with the home & home.

 

[Pudge]

I don't think Uconn gets a home and home with BC after this series. If that was going to happen, don't you think that would have been announced too? BC will probably want any future series like they have with UMass to be a 2 or 3 for 1.

Beyond 2025 ... who knows what the CFB is going to be like.

The P5 is pouring money into all aspects of their Football programs. And the top hands full are gonna separate even more. That’s why a 13 year Commitment that Aresco made is nuts. The gap is gonna be huge.

There will be a good reason for bigtime teams to visit New England in October. Murphreesboro TN or Las Cruces NM or Toledo OH ...

I just don’t know where this is going

 

[John Greene]

The Fenway group really likes UConn - remember they wanted Notre Dame to play against UConn there until BC through a hissy fit - but no chance UConn gives up both home games against BC. They know the fans would be livid.

Livid fans or not the decision will be driven by $. If in 22 we have not gotten a significant bump is season tickets and Fenway makes a reasonable offer, we will take it.

The change of dates should make sure you won't be in Fenway as that date is awfully close to the World Series and possible Red Sox conflict.

The leaves?

Sorry, enlighten me as to where your going with this. Please.

Connecticut media all over twitter announcing this "new" series... SMH.

Just to show you how much the people/media in Boston care about BC both the Globe and the Herald had "mentions" of a newly signed UConn/BC series in today's editions.

That was for us.
