A stat I’d like to see is YAC. I think last year it was like 29, all year. Bell’s already taken a few short outs and made the qb stats so much better.

That was very noticeable. We were commenting on how cool it was for our guy delivering some punishment instead of waiting for the hit.

->Whether it be a compliment or an insult, or anything in between, the UConn football program wants to hear none of it. After back-to-back wins and three dominant performances at home, a wave of positive energy has surrounded the team. But internally, the Huskies feel they have a ways to go before reaching their potential and don’t want to get caught up in a losing mindset.

“We’ve won three games. Big deal,” head coach Jim Mora said during his weekly press conference on Tuesday. “If we start thinking that’s something special, then failure will follow. We’ve just got to have the mindset that every game is its own entity.”<-

-> “The day that you sit there and you think you’re comfortable, that’s when someone comes and steals off your plate,” Stafford said. “We’ve been on the other side of the fence before, we know what that feels like, and we’re not gonna let that happen again. Now that we’ve got this momentum rolling, we just plan to keep showing up every day, putting in the work to make sure we don’t end up like the teams we just played against on the other side of the ball.” <-

-> Mora said he doesn’t know if Evers will be ready to play on Saturday.

Pryce Yates, a redshirt junior defensive lineman who was expected to start before suffering a concussion in preseason camp and having a setback, could make his season debut on Saturday.

Bristol native Victor Rosa, a running back who had surgery on a broken finger before the Duke game, was with the team during team periods in practice on Tuesday. Mora said he has a meeting with doctors Wednesday and should be cleared and ready to go for Saturday. <-

Love to see Rosa and Yates back for this weekend to knock off the rust
Don’t know what to think about Moras comments regarding Evers

 

[RedStickHusky]

I know what I think but I don't think I know.

The ultimate example of that for me was when they crushed UConn in September 2010, then the Huskies went on to the Fiesta Bowl.

That is why this season seems like 2010. Of course, this schedule is not as challenging as the 2010 one.

some of the things I've seen this week is wild... "OMG, UConn has ARRIVED!!!"... uhhhh... I don't know if we're being set up or not? Its not like there aren't plenty of story lines.

We've come a long way from the days of grass in the open field tackling UConn RB's.
