Fantastic news! Please reach out to all "the program is dead" naysayers and let them know. UCONN is back and getting better!

 

[gwhuskyfan]

This is awesome.

 

[RSTuthill]

Better yet, start preparing the Big East fanatics for a change in a year or two. It will come as a shock to them.

Additionally, this incentivizes the Huskies to win out. Time to step up, men.

 

[Palatine]

Playoff here we come. Buckle up Alabama.

Any press is good press, but good press is gooder.

Someone will say that they didn't beat a p4 team. Lol

You beat them to it

That is the incentivization part. One still left on the schedule.

Just shows how dumb it is to play so many P4 games when you are G5. Easy schedule = Wins = Respect...and it should also lead to better recruiting.

 

[Hamms30]

Why are we on here as G5 and Notre Dame isn't?

 

[KryHavok]

Why are we on here as G5 and Notre Dame isn't?

Let me explain...no, there's too much. We're G5/6, they're not because they're not. If you ask why again, you may get an aneurysm.

if you have to ask, you don't deserve to know

Imagine if Fagnano was quarterback!

j/k. Just wanted to see if we could turn another thread into a conversation about Evers…lol.

Just imagine the heights Jax State would achieve if Turner was their starter...

Oh, I disagree. Hamms30 deserves to know. However I would be worried that Hamms30 would not understand the answer. Not to worry Hamms30, we are just playing with you. There are no stupid questions here. Just warped and misguided answers.

It's like those midmajor lists that include Saint Mary's but not Gonzaga.

Whatever. On a football board, this perspective means little.

We lead the series at 1-0 and neither of us is sniffing a Natty any time soon. Plus their mascot isn't even a real leprechaun. It's just a guy in a hat. G5 energy if you ask me.

Nobody is

Exactly. Both Army and Navy show that too. Army is #25. Navy was up there too until they lost to Note Dame and Rice. As for the schedule being easy, that is going to vary year to year. I’m sure when Buffalo looked at the schedule, or Temple did, they had UConn in the W column. Florida State was ranked in the Top 10 in preseason polls. Very few teams had that as a win when they looked at the schedule in August.

Wow that's lame. They have all that money and can't spring for a real leprechaun? Did they spend all their money on golden helmets or what?

They tried to get a real leprechaun but people kept stealing his lucky charms

 

[CL82]

I'm sure they tried to, but he was happier in LA.

nah it was not long ago when UConn P1$$ed in their lucky charms and for a while they were happy eating gold!
