Defense seems to be faster to the ball than previous weeks. Still playing too far off, still subject to easy catches and YAC, but less YAC than before. Progress.

It took a glass of wine and a cigar to give your wife a headache. I'm envious. All I need to do is be in the same house.

It was actually me being in the same house....screaming during the game....the offer of wine was turned down due to her subsequent headache. So we are in the same, sinking ship.

Not saying this to bash Marchi, but I think he looked like the worst QB UConn has faced so far this year. He floats a lot of throws and throws behind receivers over the middle.

Sleep well UCONN football...you are in good hands with the matriarch of the program.

And the Yankees lose....this day can’t get any better!!!

BS did the job today. I can' believe people were calling for him to be benched early in the game. The win would not be possible without him.

Winning is fun. I think they had their pride tested after Memphis put up 70 on them and it was a good sign they responded well.

Of course getting win #2, and seeing 3 other winnable games coming up, makes the decision to reschedule USF and move up another winnable game ECU look incredibly misguided.

I thought you weren't going to watch anymore NCAA games???????????????????????

He certainly floated that pick six. I haven't seen a ball like that since Billy Kilmer with the Washington Redskins circa 1972.

I think HCRE would prefer "patriarch". Unless you know something we don't...

Now. Now. We don't make fun of gender fluidity in 2017.

I'm a bit too young to know what Kilmer's ball's looked like.

I think he is being a dick.

Damit. I can't even blame auto correct on this one...or my wife.

Nice road win for the young squad today. The offense was pretty disappointing there in the fourth quarter but the defense stepped up in a big way!

 

[uconnfan68]

Huge win today for all those young kids. Really happy for the coaches and team.

They used to call it a "wounded duck". It would float and wobble.

On the plus side, an improved UConn offense needs 36 points to equal last season's scoring total.

This is crazy to even think about.

I love this guy!!! So much passion for these kids and the game. He knows they’re not as talented (right now) but if he can get them to buy into the effort and preparation....all the little things. They can stand toe-to-toe with anyone if they’re mentally and physically prepared for battle. He believes in them them. He loves this program. He wears his heart on his sleeve. I have great respect for that. What a breathe of fresh air from Captain Period Pants.

When you reach a certain age, you've pretty much seen it all. You know what's important and what's not. I think this FB program means a lot to HCRE. It's not just a paycheck to him.
