UConn is turrible. At one point Towson was outgaining UConn 112-5.

UConn has accumulated 224 yards of offense on 41 plays, good for 5.26 yards per play. It's only slightly less in both cases when compared to Towson yet the Huskies are losing by 9 points. The Huskies rushing game is working at a swift 2.8 YPC too.

As a Towson alum I can tell you we actually have a pretty good football team this year. Still, it's a bad sign for UConn's season that we are now up 26-10.

I'd like to thank Bill Martin for scheduling Uconn for the rededication game and making it a home and home. Excellent scheduling.

I thought the state of CT put some money into the stadium renovations and wanted to keep everything in state. I could be wrong though.

Just a brutal scheduling move by Bill Martin, no matter which way you slice it.

I'm guessing that's moot when you want your biggest home game (ever?) to be in your home stadium.  Kind of like in the 90's when we played Boston College in Chestnut Hill even though it was a 26,000 seat stadium.  They wanted us on their campus stadium.

Then again, I don't think UConn's stadium is in Storrs... or is it?

Wish I could remember which preseason prediction I read that had Michigan losing to UConn. Hard to keep track when you read a hundred different ones. But someone deserves to be mocked!

At times they were getting straight manhandled on the line of scrimmage by ISU, and those guys looked like high school players. The Hoosiers will have no running game whatsoever when the B1G season starts.

I bought two on Stubhub a while back... Still waiting to actually get them. But paid 120 for the UM section.



Still waiting to see any pop up on any site or even the spreadsheet for PSU.



Is UM still waiting to send out tix to the away games??? Only explanation in why none are available yet... Right?



Getting anxious on PSU tix and I have zero interest in sitting anywhere but UM sections.

Now THAT folks is what you call lying in the weeds. Spart's got nothing on these guys.They're willing to throw games just to lull us into a state of complacency.

Also tonight Akron lost 38-7 to UCF in Florida.  Akron gave up 486 yards of offense while only gaining 250 yards on 10 drives themselves.  

After tonight it looks like the non-conference games (outside ND) should be pretty poor this season.
