Message: [QUOTE="Stern, post: 2793588, member: 527"] It makes no sense to play UCONN because they aren't a P5 team and they are in our region of the country who has had some recent mild success in the past 15 or so years. If we are going to use an OOC game on a weak link get a total doormat and not a team like UCONN. It would make more sense to play Rutgers every year since it fills our obligation to play a P5 team from another conference. And NJ is a recruiting hot-bed. At least we can justify scheduling them every year or often at least. When SU beats UCONN nobody cares and it means nothing. IF UCONN ever upset Syracuse it makes their football program stronger and could give them a spark to continue growing. It's a lose-lose for SU to play them. There are plenty of doormats we can schedule, UCONN doesn't need to be one of them [/QUOTE]
