What? We could of won against Mizzou and Navy and play calling has screwed us. I think we're good enough to be one of the best teams in the conference. I'm not satisfied with 4 wins when I know this team can get at least 6 or 7.

As Bill Parcells said, "you are who your record says you are".
 
No excuse for us to be physically abused by Navy. Said from day 1 throwing Navy into AAC was a mistake because of their oddball play. Impossible to deal with true scheme in one week of practice, and we lose a week improving.

Diaco and staff screwed this game with a terrible game plan and no effective adjustments.
 
Diaco obviously doesn't have them prepared. The defense is a civ & the offensive play calling sucks. I'm fed up with the bad play calling.

Supposedly great week of practice.... Tells me bad schemes. Don't understand how you don't bring blitzes interior and off edge after getting abused on the edge all day long.

Maybe Navy is good? Maybe better than we thought? Will find out as the season plays out.

Regardless of the final score of this game, UConn is better than last year's 2 win team. I'm looking for 4 wins this year. Small steps, but for the first time in a long time this team is heading in the right direction. Maybe not today, but..

God this is depressing
 
Game is certainly a downer.

However, listening to Joe D its amazing how terrible he is as an announcer. Decent voice but just the stupidest comments. For instance Sherriffs pass to Newsome was behind him. Wait Newsome caught the ball. No he caught it on the bounce. OK its being reviewed. I think Newsome craddled the ball.

Yea, but that's no excuse for conservative play calling on offense. Verducci better step up his play calling that's all I'm saying. When it was 21 to 10, Verducci called nothing but run plays. Why? That's when we needed to attack. Navy is not a strong defensive team.

Way to ruin two plays in a row Lucus .... Navy had better athletes period we have a lot of recruiting to do to replace pasqualonis mess

Now we pass to Thomas... Lol in the 4th quarter. Maybe our best player on offense. What a joke by Verducci.

That's really what it boils down to. Simply need more players.

yeah I agree. Mu guess is that the UConn coach talk all week from a O game plan was to use as much time as possible on O so as to keep the ball away from Navy's O. And give the UConn D as much rest as possible.

But, once we were down three 21-10 that game plan needed to be shelved.

That seems to be the game plan every week, but that doesn't work on every team.
