@SubbaBub Absolutely not an attack here just a comment.If you think Army is a good.win, then thank you for your interest in UConn FB.
If we get in a P5 conference that might happen. Otherwise it will be a very rare event to beat BC, Cuse, Rutgers. Temple better odds.It will be a good day when Uconn can beat BCU, Cuse, Temple, and RU regularly. Looking forward to that day someday.

A win over Army with all due respect to them would have been a very good win. They mopped us 52-21.
Right now the overall rankings has Army @ #57 this above teams like Nebraska, Maryland, Syracuse, Rutgers, Florida, Texas etc. UConn at #130 last overall.
I have a long standing interest in UConn football and do not think playing Army diminishes the program one iota. On the other hand a very short road trip with history and pageantry galore for home and home games. A history lesson for players and fans alike, along with a formidable and respected opponent.
So to paraphrase, you want to ignore what’s actually happened over the past six years for Army and UConn. You also say that we should be beating them next year because your standards are higher than the rest of us sad sacks who have seen us be the worst team in the entire FBS?This year it would have been a good win because any win would have been a good win. I'm not looking at Army from the standpoint of this year or even the last 6 years. If you want to ve considered a legit P5 or even a legit FBS program, Army on your schedule has to equal a win.
Not sorry if my standards for the program are higher then anyone elses. If you decide to settle for below average, then that's what you get.
Add program self esteem to the long lisg of things that need improvement.
I figure by 2024 we should be able to go 3-1 against those schools. It isn't exactly murderer's row.If we get in a P5 conference that might happen. Otherwise it will be a very rare event to beat BC, Cuse, Rutgers. Temple better odds.
Given UConn’s recent history, thinking a win against Army (who’s won four bowl games in the last five years) is a given, is laughable.2021 1-11 vs an easier schedule aside there are 4 easy for a legit program wins on the schedule. CCSU, FIU, Ball St, and Army. 4 should be the min. Also have Cuse, BC, and Liberty that are winnable if we get enough good transfers.
Army has no better athletes, just better coaching, more discipline and an ethos to battle hard.Given UConn’s recent history, thinking a win against Army (who’s won four bowl games in the last five years) is a given, is laughable.
