Beat ECU or UCF or Cincy at home

I think Geremy Davis and Byron Jones qualify as "football players".

Once again the 'Yard lets facts get in the way of a good rant...

"Garbage Recruits" - nice...

GO TEAM!!

Thank you for calling out people who use words like "garbage" to describe humans who's only fault, as far as any of us knows, is falling short of some football fan's ideal for players. What words do these people reserve for a Sandusky, Rice or some nut that takes an assault weapon to a grammar school?

My guess is that the players would agree that, as a team and individually, they are playing badly; hell, even atrociously. I also think that the players would tell you that a bad game, or even primary responsibility for a loss does not make anyone "garbage." "Garbage" is personal. Describing someone as "garbage" to their face is probably going to draw a "response;" one the "describer" deserves.

Well said fairtides, garbage is something you pay people to take away from you. Garbage is a word reserved for what fills our dumps and prisons, has no reason being used to describe our student athletes.

Cincinnati isn't that good. I'm not convinced they are better than Memphis. I think the Tigers are 40/60 to beat them on the road this week.

That being said UCF is their best chance to steal one of those three.

I know people see the name Memphis and make assumptions - that's a bad matchup for UConn.

It would seem impossible to lose to SMU. As bad as they are plus going on the road in December when everyone associated with the program worried about their next job.

Not for nothing but Memphis is blowing out Cincinnati on the road...
