Not crazy about the helmets this year. Looks like a different blue and the Husky logo just doesn't work. That said, first world problems. Get a W!

Yeah, after the redesign, we drifted away from "national flag blue" to a lighter blue. Still like the uni this year, but I do prefer the darker blue colors.

I agree about the logo. That said, a slightly larger Husky logo on the white helmet as shown in the above Us vs Them post would look so much better. I hope those kids treat themselves to a 7th victory this weekend.

Agreed. There's just too much space the way it currently looks. Also the blue Block C on the white helmet looks good too.
 
Trying to be an optomist but I got a bad feeling on this one. I guess its because we are on the road.
 
Let's get off to a good start we need to go for it on 4th and 1 in opponent territory more often especially on the road.

It bothered me when we didn't do that against Ga State on their 37 extending the game the added 2 minute warning makes that decision all the more reason to go for it. Stop acting like a risk of 1 yard is equivalent to jumping off a building snap the damn ball and go.

Does anyone know for a computer dummy, if this game will be on UConn plus? Phoned a half dozen bar / restaurants that do not carry ESPN+, this including Sliders. Found out a local club may have it on the big screen if it is. Not a sure thing.
Hate to have three men drinking beers and bourbon sitting in a car listening to 97.9 with a bored designated driver. ;)

Doubt very much anything but audio will be on UConn+.

Give Urban Lodge Brewing in Hartford a call - they look to be having a viewing party: HARTFORD | Urban Lodge Brewing

Look for a sports bar with direct tv. Needs the full sports package. If they don’t have it it’s not going to be available

Check with Bobby V's near the airport in Windsor Locks. They usually have all the games. And food. And beer. And betting. And VR golf.
