UConn couldn't beat decent FCS teams. The UConn players, many, wouldn't be offer schollys at good FCS schools, let alone FBS programs.

I thought I was kidding a few weeks ago when I said their only shot at a second win would be finding a way to bring last years team in via a time machine (and even then, no D on both sides, it would be close) but, no joke, I am starting to doubt Umass as a possible second win...Yikes.

With Edsall's "two yards and a ball of dust" philosophy, yes I would agree. UMass favored by 14 points would be my guess.

We stink. This is worse than embarrassing. Worse than pathetic. Rock bottom hasn't seen this depth. We are worse than the worst team in FBS. We are worse than ourselves.

The offense is a few more steps behind opposing teams' defenses this than last year. At least the defense gets opposing offenses to punt from time to time now.

Agreed, but I feel bad for some of the players though. Travis, Jasen, Tyler, SteveK, Lual, DJ, Kevon. They deserve a better coach.
id feel bad if I could discern any of them making superhuman efforts. Last guy who had unbelievable willpower that could inspire a team was Sheriffs running the ball and laying it all out there. The Kid would kill himself to make plays... and he was the QB... no Lawrence Taylor. Just see zero character out there. None.

Truly amazed that some of you bothered. You had nothing better to do? We knew this was exactly how it would turn out, didn't we?

Defense is better, O is inexperienced so therefore worse than last year. If it's any consolation the head-smacking plays are fewer and farther between. Not many fewer or much farther between but I do see some better play. Just need better, faster players.
