UConn vs Boston College - “ They wrote us off, we didn't write back though” - The Mini-Movie

The pre-game locker room and music @ end are must watches:

If they get us bowl eligible, they can play Captain and Tenille in the background for all I care!

LOL at "CHALLANGE" on the dry erase board.
Reminds me of Creed.

O.K., you win. Even at 6-6 I won't want to hear that.

 

[ZooCougar]

That is first rate stuff.

So good to see how much the players care about the guy who turned them into winners so quickly. And not just winners on the field, but also in life.

That locker room scene at the end shows untold respect and appreciation for the coach. What a relief it must be for the players to improve so much and achieve significant wins after the 1 win per year pattern that had been established lately.

The BC radio announcers before the game reminded me of the “controlled scrimmage” comments before the game the Huskies pushed BC into the 4th quarter. 2002, I think

I could not see this team having this much fun with any of our other head coaches. This guy, Mora seems to be a real human being. Someone who cares about all the young man under his care.

 

[HuskyDevil]

Great video...the team really seems to enjoy playing for Mora...let's keep it going!

When I was at UConn, I went to see America in concert. I enjoyed it fine, but what I still remember is that they were peeved about the fact that "Captain and Toenail" made that song a hit. Real time I was stunned that they were proud of the song. It was clearly the bathroom song of the night.

 

[RedStickHusky]

Crowd looks really good in that film.

 

[ZooCougar]

If you are a recruit and you see this, how could you not want to play for Himothy Mora?

Was America really upset or just joking? The reality is America at the time was 3-man, band who had a range of big hits. Captain and Tennille made it a hit because it is a cute little love song and at the time, they were a cute couple very much in love. It fit.

Admittedly as a guitarist it is much more fun to play Ventura Highway, Tin Man, Horse with no Name etc... but Muskat Love lyrics are cute and the ladies like it

He always looks like he's having too much fun. It's awesome.

Yes HCJM is the Real Him Shady.

No one mentioned the last song played in the video:

Talk about the life in Massachusetts
Speak about the people I have seen
And the lights all went out in Massachusetts

The reality is 1 candle went out in Massachusetts because no one cares about BC. When we take out UMass Friday night, hopefully there is a song about the Berkshires.

 

[BlueandOG]

If we win tomorrow we are the best football team in New England.

Is there another Berkshies song besides Alice's Restaurant?

 

[WhereistheDove?]

1. God it's nice to have something to smile about again when it comes to UConn football
2. The UConn athletics media department has really stepped up their game big time

Sweet Baby James by James Taylor references the Berkshires.

FWIW: Pretty sure Amherst (UMass) is Pioneer Valley - not the Berkshires.

I contend BC is as much about Massachusetts as UMass Amherst is as much about the Berkshires.
