So this is what the eight-game series looks like:

2016: UConn at BC

2017: BC at UConn

2018: UMass at UConn

2019: UConn at UMass, Gillette Stadium

2020: UMass at UConn

2021: UConn at UMass, Gillette Stadium

2022: UConn at BC

2023: BC at UConn


So the next 8 years we play a team from Massachusetts. Can only be good for local rivalries & increasing fan enthusiasm which we're sorely lacking now that we're in a conference with teams spread around the south and midwest.

You did see the other threads regarding this, yes?

2016 schedule includes 3 very winnable games vs ACC opponents. How great would it be to go 3-0 vs. Cuse, Virginia and BC?

I'll definitely be taking that week off if work. My nephew will be two by then and I think his first UConn football game should be the absolute beat down we're going to be giving BC next year.

Been there. Be prepared to leave at halftime.

I have it planned out. My sister will be taking her car so if he needs to leave she can take him home while the rest of us (presumably just my brother in law and my parents) can stay and watch the game.
