I wish you would all stop with the mythical run, run, pass, punt. They haven't done that since the first half of the Maine game.

UConn passed for 273 yards against UH. They ran for 62 yards (against a great run defense).  UConn attempted 36 passes, and ran 27 times (including QB scrambles).  Look at the stats.  [URL="http://www.espn.com/college-football/matchup?gameId=400869527"]Connecticut vs. Houston - Team Statistics - September 29, 2016 - ESPN[/URL]  They threw on first down quite often.

The game was closer than the score suggests, mostly because UConn did move the ball, but stalled just across midfield several times.  Meanwhile, our defense couldn't stop Houston in the red-zone or get any field goals.  Ward was a machine, with two incredible runs for TDs, and a pass for a one handed grab.  We couldn't stop them.  That was the game, not our offense.

Yes, the punts were maddening.  I didn't agree with those calls and BD needs to explain those decisions in a game where we trailed heavily.
