No respect.

I'll do a backflip if it's within 7

 

[uconnphil2016]

Yeah, that's not bad at all. I think we're definitely playing a more talented team, but let's see if we can steal one at home with a (hopefully) raucous crowd tipping the scales in our favor

 

[BugsyCT]

All things considered, that's pretty generous towards us. ECU's a good team - already have a win over VA Tech and their road losses are to Florida, BYU, & Navy (both losses to Florida and BYU were by 7 pts). Played tough against Temple too. We'll have our work cut out for us.

Good news is that it should be in the mid 30s for the game. Now let's just hope we aren't providing our guests with heated benches again...

Where did you get that weather forecast? Weather.com predicts 50 at game time and mid 40's by end of game. Sounds like pretty good weather to me. Not much different than the weather in NC last year for the ECU game.

I know that I am probably in the minority, but I haven't been able to shake a gut feeling that says we will win tomorrow night. And yes, I've been 100% sober this week.

That's why -

Best Bet of the day is UConn with the money line +245. Bet $100 to win $245. We will beat ECU by 2 touchdowns.

Here we go again...

I hope you are right.
I love your #BleedBlue attitude!!

Its time to #HuskyUp instead of Bend don't Break.

Anyone remember what the spread was vs UCF last year?

Just sayin'

We are already beating ECU at one thing - have you seen its "Boneyard?"

Reminds me of the old Courant site!

Getting ready to fly in from Chicago and there is a bunch of East Carolina fans on the flight.

Wait a rootin' tootin' minute...there are TWO Boneyards?!?! I'm not sure I can even handle one. THIS one.

There must be some sort of copyright lawsuit here. Perhaps our lawyers from each side can hammer out the details.

I have a good feeling going into tonight. I feel like the rent will be bumping and we'll pull off an impressive W. Hopefully we can create some noise similar to those Pittsburgh and WVU night games back in the BCS year

I already invested in +7 a few days ago and am seriously thinking about the ML play too. I have to guard against homerism, but I want to make sure that my feelings are genuine come kickoff. I need to get a feel for tailgating scene, the chill in the air, and general vibe around the stadium.

It's all about those pregame vibes

It would be nice but probably not likely. First, there will be about 10K less fans tonight than those Pitt/WVU games. Second, because of our record, the casuals that do come may never make their way inside the stadium. The ones that do are likely to leave at halftime.

Regardless of what happens in the stands, I too have a good feeling about tonight. I have no rational reasoning why. I've just thought all week that the team will circle the wagons tonight and get the W. Would be a big W if we can get it!

Haha yea very wishful thinking, but man were those the days. The stadium on those nights was electric!

 

[BugsyCT]

Maybe the Halloween eve vibe plays a hand - strange things could happen. We're overdue for a win like that. Not that it's the same, but it's got that 2010 WVU, back against the wall feel. Maybe we pull this off tonight.

No respect.

What exactly has UConn done over the last 3 weeks to earn a better spread?

When you go to weather.com it says that it will be 35 degrees tonight, but then when you look at the hourly forecast it only gets as low as 40....not sure what's going on there.

First long johns game of the year!

Definitely agree about less fans, but the 2nd statement was true for the WVU game going in to it. We were 3-4, coming off a blowout loss. So hopefully if the game is good the fans will stick around and make it a good atmosphere.

Quite simply, the weather service considers night time to extend to the next sunrise.

Look at it this way: When you wake up tomorrow morning a 7:00 do you really car what temp it was at 2AM? What can you do to prepare for it? It already passed.
