Longest season ever

[whaler11]

In the course of other business tonight I stumbled upon the balance of my tickets.

I've had season tickets since 2000 - even in bad years the season went by in a flash and I counted down the days.

The 2013 season seems to be a science experiment - not only are there still two home games - the concept it's only 66% over is hard to believe.

I don't know which game they win - but I'm fairly sure they win one. It seems impossible but i think it might be Rutgers.

Well if it's gonna be one.........

Keep in mind tonight that there are actual humans who propose hiring Greg Schiano to coach UConn.

The BC fans don't count.

God I hope no one thinks I'm one of em. I just have a funny feeling he will throw his hat into the ring. And Warde will pick up the phone. I've never wanted to be wrong more.

Like you, this season has been brutally long. All I really care is who the next coach is. Would love for the seniors to get a win though.

I agree Whaler. Usually i'm really depressed when the seasons over. Instead i'm really depressed that it's still going.

I'm kinda detached. I watch, I cheer, I revolve my schedule around the games. But I feel like I'm just going through the motions. Trying not to care so much. Waiting till it gets better.

You have to have a change of perspective....

Just turn everything on its head and start cheering for a perfect season ...0-12.

Every game is then meaningful.

And, believe me from personal experience, 35 years later you can tell the newby bandwagoneers that you were there. They will listen to your story of that awful year in awe and admire your fortitude and fan loyalty.

Your experience becomes part of the team legend, the Dunkirk of UConn football.

With a string of winning years, there will be some young folks look at you and whisper.."wish I could have been there."

Just hope it is Dunkirk (where they came back) and not Saigon (where we were gone for good).

Every week there is a game is a good week!

I think the fact that UConn has had so many bye weeks has made this awful season seem longer.

 

[Jimmy Serrano]

Our first game was in August and now there's snow on the ground. Towson feels like 3 years ago.

 

[ZooCougar]

The sheer number of bye weeks hasn't helped either.

Seems like:

30 point loss
bye
45 point loss
bye
30 point loss
bye
etc...

We get to let each disaster sink in for 2 whole weeks before the next disaster comes around. It's delightful
