Just read in the Anthony piece that Frank Verducci has a job with UCF...how is that man employed?!?!?

I've got a funny feeling about today. There are absolutely zero expectations or pressure on this squad today, and that plays right into the hands of Pindell, who can just go out there and have fun. If Arkeel is 90%, we might be in for a good football game.

Yes, I know it will take a Herculean effort by our young defensive backfield to stop a prolific passing offense. But I've just got a feeling...

Can we lock Lashlee up as head coach in waiting? It's so nice feeling like I'm not being bullshyted.

Well, they ain't gonna win, but they might beat the spread. And Pindell will get some really valuable PT. So, some good may come out of this game and there is plenty to play for. To borrow a hockey phrase, one shift at a time.

The O/U is currently at 63.5. UCF might cover that on their own....

One thing that I haven't seen mentioned is the defensive backfield as the 2 deep indicates that we will have much more experience starting this week. Against USF, we started 2 FR, 1 RsFR, 1 RsSo, and 1 RsSr. This week the 2 deep has as starters 1 RsFR, 1RsSo, 1 RsJR, and 2 RsSR.

I'm not saying that the change will mean that UConn will win, but I think we may see fewer mistakes and missed tackles.

Great interaction between UConn's Randy Edsall and UCF's Scott Frost on the field a couple minutes ago. Friends, they have same agent. Edsall presented Frost with a UConn onesie. Frost and wife Ashley welcomed a baby boy on Wednesday.

We're playing for the onesie!!!

Anyone else notice Coyle does not hustle?

No... I think he has been a decent surprise for his first year on the field. Third on team in tackles and leads in interceptions. He may not be the fastest/most skilled kid on the field @ this point but I don’t think he has an energy problem.
