This guy seems defeated…and he was. We crushed him.

does anyone have a link to the game? I was at the huskies football game....

but the wrong Huskies. UW.

Missed the whole thing. Went to see Hamilton and had a great dinner beforehand.

Hope to catch a replay. I could not believe the rushing stats when I saw them at intermission. Two guys 150+yds. Don't recall that ever happening.

Also, I guess I'm in the .0001% of people who weren't gaga over Hamilton.

Apparently you are not alone!

I was watching Freeman before the second half started. He was drilling FGs from the 40 from both hashes. I didn’t see him miss any.

I didn't get to see the game but the score surprised me. Could've should've beat Duke and rolled FIU. Encouraging and clearly an improvement.

Great game for me. I had plans to go to Duke game but was sick so swapped airline tickets for FAU game. I was very pleased with my decision.

Game was great except for lost fumble and unsportsmanlike penalties. I sat with a grammar school buddy who I hadn’t seen in 25 years which was nice as well.

My only complaints are the lack of fans and the piss poor sound system. It is hard to hear what the penalties were. I had to look at ESPN game log. I suggest that they display the text of called penalties until they fix sound system.

This was first home game for.me since UMass a few years ago and I am happy I made the trip. Low anxiety game to watch. I just wish that fans including the students would stay until fourth quarter. All and all a great trip. I even managed to eat a few dogs from Blackies.

 

[Redding Husky]

The most enjoyable game to watch in at least a dozen years. Play like that in the final eight games and a bowl is guaranteed.

And my other school, SMU, blew out cross-town rival TCU. What a day!

I was there with the fam and had a great time. If anybody caught the halftime show, my daughter was dancing in it. I was in such a good mood that I was letting my kids get anything they wanted from concessions! Ted’s Steamed burgers, Chicken tenders, mac & cheese, chocolate chips cookies, hot cocoa, whatever you want kids, UConn is kicking @ss and we're not leaving till the clock says 0:00!

By the way: the Big 12 will rue the day that they didn't invite us.

THEY WILL RUE THE DAY!!!

Every conference wants a 13-0 11-2 team.

2nd half of Duke game something changed with this team. They believe.

Bell is really good!!

 

[huskidork]

I am so excited to watch college football again!

Ah, we can speak with much experience in this area….

I give him total props - class Press Conference.

 

[cohenzone]

I wish we let him throw it a little more. The guy won't become a better passer if he's only ever handing it off.

Passing the ball against a team you are shredding with runs is not the best thing to do i thought. I didn’t want him to pass at all once it was clear they couldn’t handle the run

Meanwhile. the reaction on this board to who should be QB is a hoot. Starting season nobody wanted Fagnano. Then everyone wanted him and Evers wasn’t the answer. Now …,….. Personally I want to see how Evers does when he has to pass more often, but his running threat hopefully will help that. He made a few nice throws yesterday. I couldn’t go in person last night but will be going vs. Buffalo. Bragging rights with my grandson who goes to Buffalo are at stake.

Congrats to your daughter and I hope your family had a great time!

The running game may not be as flashy as the passing game, but when it works, it sure is a beautiful thing to behold!

 

[RedStickHusky]

I thought Bell's catch kinda flipped the "on" switch for us. A ball that Evers probably shouldn't have thrown, but a pick was as good as a punt in that situation. Bell made a great play to stop his route and undercut the outside defender; Im not gonna credit Evers for putting the ball low and outside on purpose but I will give him props for giving Bell a chance to make a play on third and long... That and then Porters catch in the end zone... Who are these guys? and Porter a freshman?

 

[uchusky32]

Both lines dominated this game. Great running attack. Like some of the RPOs called off of it. Need to be a little more creative with the passing game. Need to work on ball protection with Evers.

I was one who suggested many times on this board that we adopt an Army / Navy / Gtech style offense, In some ways we are kind of there with Evers and this running game. Option football puts tremendous pressure on the defense, it's great to see us using it! Great job by coach Sammis with this running attack, and our defense is excellent. Army and Navy also scored a ton yesterday,

 

[HuskyHawk]

Have to say, it’s a lot of fun to watch UConn football, see that it’s a blowout, and be in the right side of the score. Credit to the team. Since Maryland they have really improved.

 

[Windham4th]

Neither is much of a passer. Both tend to under throw the deep ball and throw wide on outs. But they did what needed to be done tonight.

Yep Porter did have to catch it one handed off of or behind the defenders back, so it wasn't placed that well...

 

[Bongo Fury]

It's because the "I told you so" crowd can't say "I told you so"...

Easier to hate than love?

Nice thing about RPO's is that you're not asking a guy to work through multiple progressions; make your one read and throw or go. Kid has to be a threat as a runner though. I think our three other QBs are all pocket passers, although I'm not really sure about McDonald.
