We are just so, so awful.
And I couldn’t bring myself to like that post. So instead I’ll just say “agreed.”

The Rams were known as URHigh during my time in Storrs

We have a losing culture. We came within an eyelash of beating Wyoming and Vandy. Should have beaten Holy Cross and UMass as well. Also came within an eyelash of losing to Yale. I believe a different coaching staff could make a difference in close games like these.

Don’t know if anyone looked lately but Fresno is a Top 25 team. That was a really tough way to open the season. Set a horrible tone.

We were not right the day we played UMass but with URI thumping UMass in Amherst it shows how screwed up things are in Storrs. Central beat Merrimack who beat Holy Cross. I would love to hear from Guifre as to how we can not run the ball at all. With Purdue having Mich State on the ropes we have played some good teams this year. We just have nothing to hang our hat on as a strength. We crumble at the slightest difficulty.

Great, back to where things were when I was at Uconn in the 70's. Good football in New England seen on tv only.

Purdue is taking down number 3 Michigan State. We had some weak teams on our schedule but we caught Army, Fresno State and Purdue on up years for their programs. Our last 3 games will be brutal ( 25th toughest remaining 3 game schedule in the country).

Wisconsin drilled Schiano today 52-3. After the secret men's hoops vs Rutgers contest I went to their board to see if there was any info. The attitude towards us football and conference wise was harsh to say the least. On Wisconsin!!

It’s crazy that UConn and UMass can’t outrecruit these CAA schools.

I’m not saying we should recruit like the SEC but if we split the CAA All Stars between UConn and UMass we would thump those teams.

I doubt they turned down UCONN offers to play FCS. They do get FBS transfers. Some players are better than expected.

The CAA are good football programs. Bottom Line. URI has a QB who started a bunch of games at Maryland; which is more evidence that the Transfer portal is an important part of modern college football.

And ... the Soccer chant when URI and UCONN were both good was ... U-R-I .. U-R-I ... URINE

We struggled with holy cross and Yale. Our roster is technically FBS but can’t pass the eye test.
