Please explain why?

For one you can never go wrong putting a Southern team in even a hint of weather elements.

We've watched about 4 seasons of games where UConn consistently found ways to lose. They almost never capitalized on mistakes.

Last week UCF in the first quarter dropped two balls that cost them 11 points and instead of screwing around and allowing them to stay in the game - they buried them.

UConn got huge contributions from two units which had been questionable : the tight ends and the corners.

Throw in the chaos of two separate on campus gun arrests...

Just think you have a mediocre team going on the road with some distractions in a spot they will be uncomfortable. Their biggest strength is something UConn defends pretty well. As bad as UCF is - I think it was really important for UConn to finally blow someone out.

If USF is requesting heated benches, then we have already won. Southern teams sure do know how to vag up.

I rarely make bold predictions on individual games - but tomorrow looks to me like a spot where UConn drubs USF.

Hope that you are right & this is a breakout game for UConn in all phases. Worried that USF's All America rb gashes our defense.
Everyone enjoy the day at the RENT. As the family is heading to Blue Lot, I'm on the way to Work. Only game I'll miss this season. GO BLUE!

USF wants heated benches, replace the benches with ICE COLD benches instead...

Don't get down on the Huskies. We outplayed them, and wasted several scoring chances, but we'll win going away in the 2nd half.

One of these days you'll be right. Just not yet.

Look - we're still behind schedule. Coaching, execution, depth/talent. How much those improve determine how quickly the team is successful.

Whaler,

Why did you have to anger the gods and go Nostical on us?

I haven't seen the game yet.

Other than the score, is this gonna upset me?

If you can get through the first half, you can numb it out the rest of the way.

Best offensive day in years except where it counts.

We won this game everywhere but the scoreboard, and that was on the coaches. I count this as a win.

So what do you have our record at this year?

We are a shaky 6-1. Navy is the loss. BYU is the most questionable win but because we had a great shot at that game if we had exhibited better self control, it counts as a win. I don't believe in the Parcell's mantra of you are what your record says you are. Not for a minute.
