Wow that is huge for UC.

Where are we seeing the 8pm game time? ESPN still says TBA for time and network.

What I like most about this is this really isn't a marquee matchup, Uconn isn't that good and they didn't help get this game into primetime. I'm sure ABC will do a could things on Jasper Howard and rightfully so but this game is in primetime all because of the success of the Bearcats. Thats huge. It's a blackout, right? This will look pretty cool on national TV.

don't overlook uconn... this team is actually pretty good. they're 4 losses this year were by a combined total of 13 points

and college football is a funny sport - stranger things have happened

I didn't mean for my post to come as Uconn is horrible, they're not. But this game isn't on ABC because of UConn.

i was going to make a comment about the Bearcats record (3-0) vs. UConn's against common opponents (1-2). Not only have the Bearcats swept against common opponents but they pretty much dominated the competition. UConn, at least from what i've seen, has not.

That said i truly believe the following: Coach BK on a number of occasions has said that this team acts with purpose both on and off the field. if anything, i'm worried that this edition of the Cats might have too much of a revenge motive driving them this week and might be a little too amped to tune up UConn.

I think UC is going to kick sand up UConn's a s s.

Could we possibly get a visit from the College Gameday crew?
