So, uh . . . . . . . . here's the UCF game chat.

Pindell has been pretty good today, but he gets happy feet. Sort of a run first QB

 

[BlueDogs]

I'm speechless as to the inability to pick up short yardage. It's inexcusable

They could have pounded Mensah several times or run a QB sneak under center... never done.

 

[Forte]

There’s still time left ...

For Lashlee to pad his stats with Garbage td’s. Uconn so far averages 24 points per game ... including prior games garbage tds

He's not a QB that can carry us. We need someone that can throw the bean.

 

[BugsyCT]

This fourth quarter is going to allow the box score to tell a much different story than what happened today.

That's what grinds my gears. We play competitive football for 3 quarters but turn to Jello in the 4th and can't do a thing right.

Rough being a UConn football fan. Like weekly water torture.

 

[NavinRJohnson]

Running Newsome up the middle was killer.

 

[minidarren]

Jamar Summers has completely regressed. He cannot intercept a ball that hits him in the hands.

Disgusting.

Running Newsome up the middle was killer.

I wish we still had Ron Johnson. He was great in those situations..

 

[huskymedic]

Nate Hopkins was dressed coming back from injury but I haven’t seen him on field - did I miss him in backfield at all? Just keeping track...

 

[minidarren]

I wish we still had Ron Johnson. He was great in those situations..

Mensah is just fine in those situations. Only issue is that he wasn't on the field in those situations.

Hell no. But short yardage is not Arkeels game.

 

[BugsyCT]

C'mon, get a garbage time TD.

 

[noeynox]

Mensah is just fine in those situations. Only issue is that he wasn't on the field in those situations.

Mensah got a shot at 2nd and 1 and didn't get it done. Next play false start and 3rd and 6. Only Nate Hopkins has,shown this ability.

 

[freescooter]

I’m not much for moral victories but I thought they played hard got some bad breaks. Pindell isn’t the future for sure. The oline needs to keep getting better and the defense needs to be blown up.

 

[storrsroars]

My recollection is RJ was too tentative to hit holes or get behind blocks and was stopped plenty on short yardage.

 

[storrsroars]

Nice pass, garbage time and all it was decent coverage.

 

[UConnDan97]

Nice TD! I like that there's no quit here...

 

[BugsyCT]

There ya go. Nice TD pass to McClean.

 

[noeynox]

I like Pindell. He is serviceable. If he is pushed out at QB it will be a good sign.

I thought Pindell played well.

Who is the future at QB if not him in 2018?

Exactly!!!

 

[minidarren]

Clearly Hopkins wasn't an option.

 

[BugsyCT]

Yeah, suck it, Vegas.

 

[Forte]

There it is... the pointless garbage td

 

[Stainmaster]

I like Pindell. He is serviceable. If he is pushed out at QB it will be a good sign.

If one of Washington/Krajewski/McAfee beats him out, I won't feel too nervous about him coming in at QB2. That doesn't sound like much, but it's a nice feeling given how the past few years have gone.

 

[UConnDan97]

There it is... the pointless garbage td

It's not pointless. It builds confidence for both Pindell and McLean. And we need that...
