[NU Sports] UCONN in BCS

[neonrye at aol.com]

I know that Stephen hates what he refers to as the "Big Least" and also the BCS.? I beg to differ tonight, after watching UCONN (my brother-in-law's alma mater; I live a mile from the Connecticut state line) win a thriller 19-16 over South Florida--on a 52-yard FG at the same end of the Outback Bowl (the Pirate Ship end) where Demos was "wide right".? An incredible game that kept me so captivated, I really don't care who wins between the Sooners and the Huskers.

Stephen:? You are great in so many ways--but it's still college football at this end of the country--and at "Cuse (where my daughter went) and WVa and Pitt and so on--there are some damn good players and fans who care.? And there is a Cinderalla team from Storrs, CT that, like our own 'Cats, has come out of nowhere to build a program, with a coach (Randy Edsall) who seems like a good, decent man.

So, while it's not as good as a Purple and White win, I am a happy man right now.? I would absolutely love it if somehow, someway Coach Edsall could take his Huskies, and kick some Husker or Sooner tail-at the Fiesta-or Va Tech, if they go Orange.

P.S.:? UCONN's Stamford Campus is around the corner from Buffalo Wild Wings, where we had 'Cat game watches all season..
