The Fiesta Bowl were the legend has it we were destroyed by a team we did not belong on the field with. That's a myth that insults both UConn and a fine Sooner team
Connecticut Oklahoma
Rushing 120 yards 95
Passing. 242. 429
Return. 299. 95
Including a kickoff return of 95 yds
Entering the 4th Qtr the score was 34-20 with UConn driving
Todman was a beast
The Sooner folks in front of us were squirming in their seats as a Huskie TD would have made it a one possession game with plenty of time left
InStead our QB threw a pick six which ended our hopes.
Were they better than us yes ? We couldn't stop the Landry Jones hurry up short passing game.
But we fought then tooth an nail.

What I never understand is why we have to defend ourselves (to some of our so-called fans no less) as the worst BCS team ever. Why doesn't that Virginia Tech team that got stomped by Stamford and lost to James Madison? Or that woeful Pitt team that lost to Utah? It's complete BS.
 
Dooley, how about including a photo of our 40,000 (readily expandable to 55,000) seat stadium,?

What's wrong with this picture? Stadium empty, but no one is tailgating. Usually not an inch between cars there. I'm guessing this was a "walk to cure Waylon" day or something.
 
And today's e-mail. It's catchy. It's like a Harry Potter magazine.

Bump.

I just went full @Dooley on the WVU board. I hope that's okay with you Dooley, but they really don't know us well there.

In any event, I wanted to bump this thread to keep it handy.

Do you have a link? Would like to check it out.

Of course! I know full well that posting this stuff on Twitter and/or message boards will have little to no impact on our CR chances. But like you said, there is an awful lot of misinformation out there about UConn and I feel it is my duty as alum/fan/donor/bluebleeder to correct as much of it as possible. And yes, I have way too much time on my hands.

Don't forget to include some of @UConn07 Matt's stuff too. He's written a couple of gems about our athletic department and SNY/B12 Network impact in the last few weeks. Written a lot more eloquently than the stuff in this thread. :)

Direct effect? No. Only people that can actually vote on such matters, have that.

But they need to be motivated and interested in having something to vote on and who to vote for.

Little or no impact? Uh uh. Dead wrong. The more fans, alumni, donors, bloggers, media and beat writers, athletes, coaches, and administrators of other universities in the big picture, that get turned on and enlightened to UCONN and the environment, and shake off false perception in favor of reality, the better.

Keep it up!
