I love that Brock is flexible in what he runs. It can’t be easy on the players, but after the Rice game he knew had to adjust.

I love that Brock is flexible in what he runs. It can’t be easy on the players, but after the Rice game he knew had to adjust.

Going back to a base 4-3 is probably the easiest transition that they can have, though. They've probably been playing that since they were 10 years old...

-> “We didn’t play what we typically play on defense,” coach Jim Mora said after UConn’s 26-16 win Saturday “We played a 4-3-4. We put in a new defense this week. That’s a credit to (coordinator) Matt (Brock) and the staff and the players for taking the time to learn it.”

Brock, who joined UConn last year, brought a 3-3-5 alignment, three down linemen, three linebackers and five defensive backs. The way Air Force uses misdirection and cutbacks and commits to the running game, the Huskies went with more size up front. The Falcons did get 301 yards, and controlled the ball 24:01 of 30 minutes in the first half, but did not get any big plays and the Huskies made two critical 4th-down stops in the first half. <-

Wonder if there is a surprise ahead... 4-3-4? or 3-5-3? Do we have it in us?

Possible? Sure. But I hope not.

At this point in the season you dance with the girl you brung, and put all the lipstick you can on that pig.

I am here to eat some crow.
