OK, usual question when this trip is made -- parking. Have done the riverside lot thing, but would like to get closer to stadium. see the lots available at bceagles.com. There's possible "free" parking on Hammond Pond Parkway. you'd think one of the neighbors would have private parking (guessing there might be a Newton town reg against that)

If UConn beats BC the season is a success. Full stop. No prediction however.

 

[Bubba1957]

Haven’t seen BC at all this year. I know they squeaked by HC and beat a bad GT team. What I hope happens:
We can score a lot more than last year’s team. If we game plan, if we catch the ball, if Rosa can go even to give Cam a blow, if we contain their running QB. We are not outclassed up front. So, why not give them a freakin thumping?

How UConn can list Buckman as a PR is just beyond whatever is beyond beyond. Just no.

I'm interested on how much playing time Isaih Davis ( 3rd on the depth chart ) and Lee Molette III ( 2nd on the death chart ) get going forward. Both have seen the field the last few weeks. Mora in this week's press conference said that he doesn't play younger players who have not earn playing time over an older player. However, if there is a younger player with a bigger up side to the starter then he is going to try to give that younger player some playing time. My eyes tell me that Davis and Molette III have more speed than the players ahead of them on the depth chart.

I used to be a regular parker on Hammond Pond Parkway. New regulations and parking no longer available there. Had a warning on my car after the first game, haven't been back since. Not sure if they are ticketing or towing. Another shot by Newton at BC.

clearly PR stands for punt receiver and not punt returner.

Buy a lower Brighton pass. Affordable and easiest walk to campus/stadium. Walking thru that part of campus you can drink a beer but finish before you walk off onto Commonwealth and carry some across Commonwealth and onto the main campus. Don’t trust the Hammond Pond free parking. They have very few spaces and tow. Same if you park at the chestnut Hill mall.

Just watched the entire press conference. I still believe in HCJM, but man, can the press ask some hard hitting questions? It was, once again, softball city.

No attack, just a suggestion. Maybe post the questions you would like to have asked / answered. There is not much to be discovered about the team that any fan does not already know. That and what question is available that any seasoned coach could not dance around?

Personally have no problem as everything UConn football is quite evident and not hard to figure out. @huskymedic will keep us informed on a daily basis on this forum.

I don't know what's wrong with me, but I fully believe we win this game. @UConnDan97 what say you?

 

[CL82]

Refs will be from ACC. But even if one thinks the refs are told by the conference to throw the game, I doubt the ACC cares about BC, lol.

Told? No. But there's not a doubt in my mind that they know where their bread is buttered.

 

[RSTuthill]

It's an away game, nothing to complain about. But it would be nice to be able to use neutral refs.

I know from all reporting we were likely going to be team 14 if everything didn’t collapse in the last moments starting with Oregon.
But damn it sucks all over again hearing it from Mora and seeing the impact it had mentally on the program and Benedict.

Did not expect him to go there. Nice to hear some behind the scenes emotions going on at the time though.

 

[ShakyTheMohel]

what say you?

Oh no...it's catching!

Everyone get upset when Mora tells the truth. It's like they would prefer to be lied to.

If we're able to open up our playback Saturday we may sneak out a win. Just watching VaTech against Syracuse tonite with the halfback TD pass. I think we have the ability/personnel to make that happen. It's gonna be a beautiful Indian Summer like day. Zero excuses (zero drops, hopefully)... just execute....on BOTH sides of the ball.
I like the guys we have and I think they can perform way better than what our record indicates

We're undefeated against BC this year... and last year too...

Charlton's trick plays have consistently been poorly timed and executed even more poorly. I'd rather UConn WR's catch every pass and our punt returner just field every punt cleanly.
