Grab the New Haven coach. He's cheaper, better, young and motivated. PP is an abomination. Burton was right.

D-II to a BCS AQ? How would anyone have any idea if he can coach at this level? I don't disagree that PP isn't going to work, but you can't attract the right person right now.

Eh. You think they would score a td with 0 seconds left? DOn't mind the call.

Yeah, have to take the field goal there

Ok. UConn gets the ball next. JMac cannot be QB.

I'd rather a hail mary attempt than virtually meaningless 3 points. We're getting blown out, field goals arent going to bring this team back into it.

They aren't really meaningless unless you've given up. 25 requires 4 scores, 22 only requires 3. I wouldn't have kicked to get from 28 to 25, but I would to get from 25 to 22.

You would rather have them give up, we get it.

Just about to post the same thing. I know it's tough to see because we are getting outclassed right now, but it was the right call so early in the game.

I believe we have a very high success rate scoring on the opening drive of the 2nd half.

Stop laughing. I'm being serious.

Even the ESPN announcers are starting to mail it in.

Very inconsitent announcing here. Love the comment on McCummings. (paraphrasing) " He can throw the ball, as long as it isn't far. But he has been improving in that area. He has thrown ten passes on the year". That made me laugh.

I see the field goal as them giving up.

How could you see that as them giving up? It makes it a 3 score game instead of a 4 score game. It's not like they were on the 10 yard line with 3o seconds to go.

Time to head to City Steam for the 2nd half. Hope the BB team comes to play.

I guess anyone could rationalize anything. Yes, only a 3 score game... at the half where the defense is swiss cheese and our offense is handing out turnover TD's like candy. A game where we're getting blown out and the best we can muster by the end of the half is 2 field goals. Sorry if I can't get all excited about that sound strategy.

The defense has given up 14 points. Can't disagree with you on the O's turnovers though. As pathetic as UCONN haqs played, I wouldn't say the game is over. UCONN gets the ball, they score it's a 2 score game.
