I would not let Pryce Yates play his game. He is on his second concussion this preseason and it would be wrong to rush back. Evers had his neck really forced forward on that hit then his helmet came off and his head whiplashed backward and looked to me to hit the ground. That is a number of issues. Not surprised he is listed as gametime decision.

Yates shouldn't play till maybe week 4... if he's really OK..

Is Cam Chadwick hurt?

UConn has consistently been very conservative with players injuries

I nearly had a panic attack. I see the tweet and see the words "Portal", "Bell", and "UConn" and thought "Dammit, we already lost a player to the portal after 1 game?!?!"

The game is on WFSB-3 (CBS) - not Fox61.

Still waiting for confirmation from the Game Notes on other media/streaming options (UConn+)

From the UConnhuskies.com website: The UConn football program announced that kick-off for their 2024 home opener against Merrimack on Saturday, September 7 is set for 12 noon with the game airing live on WFSB Channel 3 throughout Connecticut. The game will also be simulcast on WFSB's sister station, WWAX, as well as streamed online through UConn+.

UConn and WFSB Channel 3 begin year two of an exclusive media partnership in 2024-25. Last season's game against Sacred Heart also featured on WFSB and WWAX.

From WFSB.com: There are several ways you can watch The WAX. If you have cable TV, the easiest way is to just say “WAX TV” into you voice enabled remote control.

Youtube tv seems to have it as well just search WAX, "the wax" ... says college sports during that time which I'm assuming is the game....

Anyone have any knowledge about the transfer Green. He was projected as a starter in our line? Has anyone said he is banged up?

Can anyone just go to uconnhuskies.com, click on UCONN+, and watch the game?

I think you may need to register, which is free. At least that's a vague recollection I have from last year. I downloaded the UConn+ app to my TV. That works well and is easy.

I downloaded the UConn+ app to my TV. That works well and is easy.

And you can watch other UConn sports as well. I was testing out the UConn+ app on my TV last night after the easy installation. I watched some volleyball last night. Joe D was one of the announcers.

It’s a well done, under-appreciated/under publicized product.

Anyone see a spread?

Merrimack has a handful of guys from Connecticut.

Wish this game kicked off in the late afternoon or night. Team always seems sluggish to start these noon games. Crowd seems quieter too.

This should be an easy thing to fix.

Hmmm if my memory serves me correct he is the guy that seemed to be moping on the sidelines the entire UMD game. That would make sense if that’s the case.
