As New Season Kicks Off, UConn Players Say Edsall Has Them More Than Ready (Mike Anthony)

>>"Honestly, Coach has been on us so hard, we're treating this as if it is the Super Bowl," senior cornerback Tre Bell said. "This is the national championship game. Why? Because it's the only game we have this week. Coach has been on us very hard, it doesn't matter who we're playing."<<

Uh, I'd say this is the best excuse anyone has ever had to not be in their seats at kickoff.

We done @FDNY99, stay safe

And I thought having a child born was my winning excuse.

You win, @FDNY99 , stay safe!

Where are they selling the fried pickle chips ? And where is the Chick-Fil-A going to be located?

Minor quibble....HC does in fact have a mascot: Iggy. Although he looks too much like Marvin the Martian for many, he has been a faithful mascot for many years now.

He has his own twitter page too:

Our match up is ranked at the 80th best game of the week, beating seven others! Some of the others below us are a special kind of awful. Incarnate Word at Fresno? Houston Baptist at Texas State? Southwest Alabama Tech State at Georgia Food Service Vocational?

Kinda wish that Husky head was stretching from 40 to 40 like the image AD Dave had put out. Field still looks good though!

Isn't the bacon, jalapeno mac 'n cheese a little high risk? It's like having a crack stand.

It's going to be weird to watch a game without referring to the coach as "This M-F'er" and trying to erase what I just experienced with blackouts.

Bummed out...first opener I will miss at the Rent aince it opened. I am humbled though by what's going on down here in Houston where I have been with NY-TF1 since yesterday after we arrived following a straight through drive from NYC. Hoping to watch some highlights of the game when I can. It's really bad down here and is going to get worse as there is no let up in rain forecast till at least Friday.

stay safe and go get em brotherrrrr!
