instant-reaction Stories - The UConn Blog
UConn is a dumb basketball team.
I don't really know what else to write. I don't want to be one of those people who watches a game and calls a team "heartless," or whatever. The team plays hard. Just not well. The expectations of a 25-win season faded about two weeks ago, when UConn lost to Michigan. Now, the expectations of...
Phew.
Now we're only minus-two in the "horrifying-defeats-to-exhilarating-wins" category. After yet another fourth-quarter defensive collapse, UConn was staring loss #6 (and a 2-5, 6th-place Big East finish) right in its ugly,...
UConn 77, Colgate 63: AHHHHHHHH
So that was something. UConn won fairly comfortably over Colgate, despite trailing for much of the latter part of the first half. The Huskies won, 77-63, thanks in large part to a solid shooting night, one big run midway through the second half and, of course, Sticks. Everybody's favorite...
Instant reax: UConn 75, W&M 66
Ah, he's a-cookin' up a-somethin' good! I promise I won't overreact. It was just one game. I promise I won't overreact. It was just one game. I promise I won't overreact. It was just one game. I promise I won't overreact. It was...
Cincinnati 47, UConn 45: I am officially losing it
Good night, world! I'll be in here if you need me. UNC was the worst loss ever. Then Pitt was the worst choke ever. Then West Virginia was the most devastating loss ever. Then Rutgers was the most painful, devastating, worst loss...
Rutgers 28, UConn 24: Demoralization
Even Reche Caldwell was stunned by UConn's epic collapse. I think. That was without a doubt the most depressing loss in the history of football. Oh, and in case you weren't down enough, looks like Endres will be out the rest of the...
West Virginia 28, UConn 24: This one hurts
A banner signed by WVU students -- one of the many tributes from the classy 'Eers program -- was placed near UConn's tunnel. (Photo: Courant) We deserved to win this game. After everything that happened this week -- not only just the...
Pitt 24, UConn 21: instant reaction
As promised when UConn was up 21-6, the adorable baby bunny gets it. Since it's probably illegal to post pictures of a blugeoned rabbit, you'll have to use your imagination. One more absurd, nonsensical, jaws-of-victory collapse-apalooza from this team this season and I start punching human...
Worst. Loss. Ever.
North Carolina 12, UConn 10. G-d damned epic. May I count the ways? 1) A safety on a holding penalty in the end zone on a 3rd-and-long play that had no hope of being successful anyway. 2) Half the team's major players (Frazer, Lutrus, Twyon Martin, etc.) out with injury 3) A 10-0 blown lead in the...
UConn 23, Ohio 16: Just enough to win
"Hey, Jordan, you and Andre's shoulders OK from carrying the offense?" A win is always 100 percent better than not-a-win, so in that sense UConn's season-opening 23-16 victory over Ohio Saturday night was good. In some sense,...
