this whole season has been a tale of 2 uconns... dr jeckyl and mr hyde, if you will
hoping the good version shows up today.

I thought/hoped we were beyond that point of constantly wondering who was gonna take the field next saturday, but maybe my expectations were just... too high.

we are 5-3 and it is better than being 1-7 with a lonely CCSU win, as wouldve been the case 5 years ago.
Maybe that's all I can ask for, right now.
Go UConn.

I'm not a big comparative score person but watching that game was hardly reassuring for tomorrow.

The American Conf has some incredible parity. Memphis was down a QB too. UAB might have had something of a dead cat bounce. Memphis is still riding high after taking out USF.

Even still, this will be a tough game. And very lose-able.

The Memphis Rice game was not even close. The game was over at halftime. I would expect a high scoring game today between UConn and UAB. Neither team has a defense that provides any level of confidence. The positive is UConn is at home.

They seemed to ask a lot of question…lol.

NIce to hear some injury updates. Team should be pretty healthy for Duke.

I saw him play against Rice, but I think it was on special teams. UConn lists that he played in the last 2 games, but he had no stats. Maybe he is banged up and is only playing on special teams?

 

[JwittersPAC]

What are his injuries? Special teams is an easy way to get injured.

Don’t get our section’s hopes up that we’ll actually see you in 241.

Only missed one game this year. When I'm there - most of my people don't like the shade side so I watch the first half in 241 and then I wander.

Great effort today - made the 24 hour commute to the game worth it!!

Skyler is well spoken and accountable. Nice to have him on our side. Interesting to hear of the work Joe and he did to get ready for season. It shows.

And it appears that they don't teach those skills either...or maybe it is too late to learn?

Did it appear that way today?

Did it appear that way today?

A little better. We will see next week if it is sustained.

He really is good at the "podium" for sure in addition to being a great player that will play on Sundays.

The Bronx has been great to UConn with Kemba, Skyler, and Malachi joining. They are all connected, not just being from the Bronx, but Skyler and Malachi being really good friends and Malachi idolizing Kemba.
