I have to agree with most of the posters above. If we struggle against Fordham we're in for a long season. I feel that our defense will be the source for many scores this season and against weaker opponents they will overpower them. The offense, even if not sharp, will be able to move it at will against a weaker opponent. But I expect that a lot of the short passing, run game and long passes will be available and effective against this team. Not sure that all of this will be working well against better teams but I think it will. I will be shocked if we do not put up a big number like we always do against the 1-AA teams and expect that they will not score much if at all. 59-3 UCONN.

I think all of the QB's and RB's will play and get a chance to show what they have. It will be a good tune-up but won't show us how well we will play against the better teams. The fans will go home happy as long as everyone stays healthy.

I think 45-7, but only becuase Pasquoloni is too classy to run it up higher. Look for 35-0 at the half and basically inside handoffs for the second half.

I'll say 44-10. There probably won't be a need to throw the ball much, but it would be nice to get a TD pass or two right off the bat.

So the average of all of the predictions should be 48 - 6.

I believe we will see a very conservative game plan, alot of running to set up the play action.
So if we run the ball 40-45 times. we should use a lot of the clock. Thus I say we don't put up a big number.
We do show the fan base that we are still UCONN football, power running, with a bolt of lightening!
The defense will flex, but not show it's full repertoire, 5 sacks, 3ints.
The QB play will be watched very closely, by everyone in national flag blue.

Score: 28-3, UCONN!!

We should drop 35 in the first half on them. Johnny Mac will start, with DJ Shoemate lined up behind him. Shoemate will get no more than 5 carries on the 1st drive. Reason being he breaks a 17 yard run for a touchdown on the opening drive.

One of our quarterbacks makes a mistake in the end zone and it results in a safety. Other than that, they manage nothing.

I just need them to score 4 offensive TD's so I can get a Jersey 20% off on Monday.

With two or three Qb's still competing, I think HCPP has a hard time taking his foot off the gas; Huskies, 63 or 70 to 13.

I would be shocked if we don't score 55 and even more shocked if Fordham scores more than 7. I don't care if one of my cats was playing QB. They are borderline awful and I suspect they will be very sorry that they scheduled this game and a second out of class game with Army. Even the Cadets should be able to put up 45 on these guys. Vince Lombardi is not suiting up.

59-7, the defense scores 21 points, the offense does the rest, this should be a walk in the park.

Over or under 50

Can they get a touchdown against the league best defense team?

Who won?????
In points differential, you won with 34-0.
In actual score, I'd say you are just behind beasteast and Excalibur who predicted 38-3. If only they had pitched the sutout.
