UConn postgame

[Forza Azzurri]

Agreed, but he has to stop going away from it on 3rd down.

Especially 3rd and long with an immobile QB…

 

[FrancoPizza]

Defense played lights out so lay off ERob.

ERob’s light bulb is always out.

 

[Yeti]

The board expertise on Quarterbacks isn’t very good. There was a time some wanted CDRW over GS.

I will readily admit I don’t know poo.

I want Jakhari.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Pretty insulting to UCONN tbh.

I don't mind it.

 

[swish7]

Saved by Shoresy at the end

 

[NineOneSeven]

Sure as hell wasn’t a huge win, but it was a critical win.

 

[CuseFan]

Somehow Willis had 11 carries for 48 years. Felt like 6-7 carries, with Nixon getting more. but no

 

[Oakland]

That prevent D to seal the tie was an abomination

Shades of Stanford last year, when they went to their star receiver at the end of the game.

 

[sufan59]

Team had heart down the stretch. Culture won out today. You can’t rely on culture every week though. We have to play much better football.

 

[Eric15]

Or 2022 Purdue

They were never dominating us though. It was back and forth like a basketball game.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Agreed, but he has to stop going away from it on 3rd down.

Or 4th.

I don't mind it.

We played so bad the crowd mostly left. Just because you get the W doesn’t mean you can’t forget how badly we were executing. We have to be so much better when we meet them in Storrs next year.

 

[TommyA13]

Amazing to win for sure, but nobody should be satisfied. Several things to go look at and improve. Also, Angeli being given that long of a leash and Willis barely getting any snaps is insane.

We need to execute significantly better in a week. Forget waiting until next time we play the Dawgs

 

[Stevenson]

A lot to be unhappy with, but one thing Fran has installed flawlessly is the refusal to quit.

First rule of the game thread: You don’t talk about the game thread

 

[pokercuse08]

I love Fran. You don't put in a full effort during the game, then you're going to put in an effort after the game.

 

[sabach]

1. I’m not going to be completely miserable at work tonight. Exhausted tho

2. Delorean is going to be so good.

3. Fire erob

4. The biggest positive out of this is that there’s a UConn fan out there that was given a brief glimmer of hope just to have it crushed in front of their eyes.

I found him. I'm on the bus back to Skytop right now. Guy in front of me is painted in UConn colors all over his bald head, face and arms. Looks kind of sad. Hate to see it.

 

[hungrychuck]

Angeli is a tough kid, physically and mentally.

He took a beating and played poorly for a stretch.

But he persevered. Overcame both.

Hat’s off to him.

 

[sdhall01]

I, for one, have never said a bad word about Angeli. Not even once. Not even after he threw the interception. Nope. Never, ever, ever, ever.

I CERTAINLY didn’t take my beagle’s face in my hands and exclaim that Angeli sucks. That didn’t happen, and anyone who says it happened is a liar.

Seriously, homeboy’s got grit. What a way to finish the game.

 

[Tony DeFranco]

Does Angeli have no sense of pressure whatsoever? how many times can he just let himself get totally blindsided? at least he didnt fumble

I didnt know Reese was playing this season until there was 10 mins to go - then he looked like a mini Freeney

We just need to get through this season without a total disaster - losing to UCONN at home is a total disaster - I don't care if theyre better than their name

 

[Whitey23]

coaches should be on the line too.

 

[nocohalo]

coaches should be on the line too.

Making players do sprints like this is incredibly stupid.

 

[Surfan06001]

Making players do sprints like this is incredibly stupid.

Why?

 

[Stevenson]

Has to be tough to be a fan of a mid-major right now. You have one of the big dogs on the ropes and you ship the bed at the end. Demoralizing.

 

[sufan59]

It was a huge move and it paid off. Not sure I had the guts to make the same decision.
