They piled up 521 yards in offense, but couldn’t make the yard or two that would have salted the game away in the final minutes, couldn’t make the two yards for a touchdown in the overtime possession. “When you can’t get it in from the 2-yard line in overtime, then at that moment, you’re not good enough,” Mora said. <-

Not buying it. Delaware was an FCS team prior to this year. The game shouldn't have even been close. Let the players go and play for Delaware if they can't figure out how to win at UConn.
