soooooooooo what? If we had last year's team playing with last year's coaches I get it, but UConn isn't playing with last years team and coaches.
CCSU has about a 1 in 20 chance of beating this UConn team, that's about as "given" as you get in sports.

Ok. Whatever. It’s like you and you people suffer from amnesia.

I’m not making any comments like you are until we actually playing football. Until then, it’s just wishful thinking.

You would think that anyone with a brain would learn this lesson after a decade of this crap.

Sort of, at least for me. I’m serious that I’m buying into this staff in this team. I just said it in a tongue-in-cheek way, because I’m well aware it’s all smoke and mirrors at this point. We will know more Saturday.

I just want to see what we look like. I want to see some degree of competence. I want confirmation that all the good things we’ve been hearing haven’t all been horseshit. In short…

I want to see exciting football. Not three yards and a cloud of Edsall.

Well the guys who put the $1k bets on Utah State to win the Natty will be disappointed (there's also a UConn mention in the article)

Not ready to say CCSU will be easy at all. Last time we beat an FCS school by more than 7 points was 2011 vs. Fordham. That’s insanely bad.

I think we’ll have a better sense of how this team is after Utah St and CCSU.

Definitely agree that we’ll have a better understanding of this team after they play a couple games

I get we have the schedule upside where if we were undefeated we would make the playoffs but 10,000-1 odds for us are terrible. Should be pushing 50,000-1 especially when the win total is 2.5… how do those odds make sense???

OK Whatever. Like you are unwilling to put some facts to your statement. I say CCSU has 1 in 20 chance of beating UConn in 2022 and that is nearly a "given", you say "far from a given" and my question is "if far from a given what would you estimate the chances of CCSU beating UConn".

Your answer is "you and you people suffer from amnesia". How about answering the actual question. There is no "wrong" answer just what you think. By the way I'm just one guy, so leave everyone else out of it. Not claiming anyone else thinks like me, I'm the one that can't learn a lesson or suffers from wishful thinking; it's only me asking you to clarify your statement.

How about giving me a dose of "non wishful thinking" by answering my question.

Let’s stick to Utah State gents.

Last year our defense started out ok but things went downhill quickly. No offense. Enter Coach Charlton. Thanks to Medic for learning of the connection between Coach Allen and wideout N Fitzgerald. Looking for a good showing in game one this year. Whatever that turns out to be win or loss wise. Be competitive for 4 quarters.

It'd be nice if they could spot us a couple turnovers.

Well, now that NIL is a thing, maybe you can make this happen, if you know what I mean.
