I left at the half and I'm not ashamed of it.

Funny, students were out at the games I saw when I got back from the UConn game. At those schools, the game is he party.

In the games you watched when you got back from the game was the stadium a 30+ minute drive from campus? I'm not saying the students shouldn't have been there, I'm just saying its not a shocker that the student section wasn't filled during a night game that happens to coincide with one of the biggest party weekends of the school year.

If you were a student last night and went to the whole game, you would have wasted five hours of your life on travel and terrible football. Can't say I would blame anyone about thinking twice before making that decision.

This is a truckload of manure. UConn has had Halloween evening games in the past when they were competitive. Many of the students attended in costume. The place was packed.

Maybe double check your recollection. There have been two games in the last 15 or so years where UConn had a home game that started after 6pm on a Halloween weekend. One was in 2010 when we had a GOOD, FUN and Fiesta Bowl-bound team to watch; there as a 40k turnout. The other was in 2015 against East Carolina and the attendance numbers were about the same as last night.

If we're 5-2 and the students don't show, its an issue. If we're getting trounced every week and there's a night game on Halloween, I'm not going to blame a student for not being all that thrilled about going to the game.

The students didn't know before hand how bad the game was going to be. I wish I did.

Get medical help right away if you develop some of the following symptoms: fast heartbeat, hallucinations, loss of coordination, severe dizziness, severe nausea/vomiting/diarrhea, twitching muscles, unexplained fever, unusual agitation/restlessness. A very serious allergic reaction to Uconn Football is rare.

UMass has a weird problem where their tailgates are wild and absolutely *packed*.

Then no one goes into the stadium. They can't give tickets away.

Again, it's just UMass, but attendance issues are popping up everywhere.

It’s your money and your time.

Leave whenever the heck you want.

Why would you feel bad? The player’s family sections clear out in these games.

You know we've hit an all-time low when the BY is no longer publicly shaming those who leave early! I remember the good Ol days......

I have all these illnesses before I went to UConn games.

Anyone interested in two tix for BC? Make an offer. Also will probably have two for USF. I'm going to root for Georgie Springer, hope for the UConn men and relax and enjoy the UConn women in weeks to come.

For me, I do have faith that Randy will turn things around, but I will wait for next year's Spring Game to think about it. I trust that by that time Crocker's defense will be in the crapper.

UCONNBILL and I sat through it til the end. Kind of anticlimactic. But hanging with him makes it fun!! Got pictures with the Husky mascot.
