if uconn doesn't make a bowl with that schedule then everyone needs to be fired

 

[gioff23]

I like it. I was sorta hoping Aresco would make a last minute switch and put Temple in East and RU in west, but otherwise I like our home schedule of games. Orlando, Dallas and Philly aint bad road trips either

 

[specialisthusky]

That's a pretty favorable schedule with some decent home games for us. Attendance should rise with Rut and Lville games at home in additionn to Michigan, which should al be sell outs if the team is playing decent..

Any predictions for the lowest attended NBE game next season? I would think Houston @ Temple would be up there (or down there depending on your perspective). Also receiving votes: Temple @ Memphis, Temple @ SDSU, Temple @ SMU

Any common thread here?

I'm seeing a 3 -8 season next year and finally Pasqualoni's demise.

Memphis v. SMU

Wow. That's rough. Geordi doesn't even have us playing 12 games.

UConn schedule would be:
Home: Towson, Maryland, Michigan Louisville, Rutgers, San Diego State, USF
Away: Buffalo, UCF, Cincinnati, SMU, Temple
Winnable: Towson, Buffalo
50/50: Maryland, SMU, USF, Temple
25/75: SDSU
Loses: Michigan, Louisville, Rutgers, Cincinnati, UCF
Predictions:
1) 4-8, 2-6 BE
2) PP 'resigns'
3) WM hires HC with B1G (leaning towards UMich) connections who, while not young, is not AARP standard

He has WM blowing the Michigan game contract. I appreciate that kind of in-depth analysis in a prediction.

7 home games I like.

Notice rutgers and ul have to go to Boise.

 

[UConnDan97]

This is a good schedule for us. Most of our tough opponents are at home (and plenty for the crowd to get excited about), and the SMU / Temple / SDSU crossover schedule was about as favorable as we could hope for, with the obvious exception that we don't get to play Memphis. Needless to say, if we don't go bowling next year, PP's coaching days are over...

 

[Jarhead_1775]

That's no accident.

Notice rutgers and ul have to go to Boise.

I noticed that too. I don't think that was random...

 

[uconndogs]

OK, I'm going to stop complaining after this post...........this conference schedule blows.......big time.

 

[UConnSportsGuy]

You forgot one more home game...the BE championship game!

 

[UConnDan97]

UConn 2013: 14-0.

 

[whaler11]

The best UConn home slate in history combined with the worst UConn team since 2006. Perfect timing.

 

[whaler11]

Only surprise is sticking Boise w a trip to Cinci - should have sent them someplace more manageable like UConn or USF.

 

[Jimmy Serrano]

Hope I'm wrong. I see a ceiling of 5 wins.

Towson, Buffalo, USF, Temple, SMU?

My concern is that we do not play Temple well for whatever reason.

 

[noeynox]

Get rid of deleone as OC. And I like our chances against that schedule.

Very astute. Having 6 other home game gives Manuel cover for blowing the biggest moment in the history of the Rent.

Remember: The major advertizing point in 2012 for getting onto the 3-year season ticket commitment was guarranteed seating for the Michigam home game in 2013. If this game gets bought out or moved to the Meadowlands, Yankee Stadium, Citifield, or the Razor, the Athletic Department will have a season ticket uprising on its hands.
