UConn's Defense

[E.T.]

Most points they've given up this season ... 17

Go BULLS !!!

Maine Temple Duke Akron......... Don't be worried about their defense imo.

Don't let those no-name teams distract us from the fact that UConn's defense is a very soundly coached team.  They are very consistent and as much as we'd like them to, they won't just bend over like the picture on BullFreak's signature.

Turnovers.

UCONN's D is pretty solid.  That much is for sure.

USF has plenty of offensive weapons.....we just need to establish a solid ground attack and control the ball......no turnovers!

Defense needs to come out firing on all cylinders......create some points off defensive turnovers.

Go Bulls!!

I know people are saying that a windy/rainy game would help the Uconn D... But I think there are advantages for us too. Chance to hone our running game (and non-existent short-passing game, can I see a quick slant?)... OUR D will be able to pin their ears back and come after the QB + running game.

I'm excited. I almost hope it rains. I always used to love playing in the mud games back in the day.

its going to be a game of big plays.  50+ yard plays will make the difference.

UConn is undoubtedly soundly coached. But I don't think they've faced a team with USF's speed and power on offense and defense. They don't have the type of offensive linemen that can keep George Selvie and others from wreaking havoc in the backfield. I think they'll have a very difficult time on offense, which means that one or two big Matt Grothe runs will be enough to win the game.

hmmm...  Louisville might suck ostrich eggs this year, but their offense is Top 5 in the nation.

UConn shut them down like a Chinese restaurant selling General Tso's catmeat to a health inspector.

It was the same type of conditions we will face this saturday for UL. UL doesn't have a run game resorting to passing in rain and wind = no good. You could clearly tell this by the late interception from Brohm. If it wasn't poor conditions he would have hit that WR in stride for a TD.
