  • Chasing Perfection: UConn's most far-fetched week yet (Ep. 84)
    2022/12/15
    UConn’s already strange season turned even more bizarre this past week with a tight win over Princeton that added to the already-heavy injury toll and featured one of the craziest finishes that we’ve ever seen. The shorthanded Huskies also fell to Maryland, but we explain why we’re actually encouraged by the team’s performance in the loss. We also discuss Inêsanity, the frontcourt’s standout performances, and why the new year could provide hope. Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or Substack. Learn more about your ad choices.

  • The UConn Football Pod: Better than Boston College
    2022/11/03
    UConn had never beaten Boston College in football. Of course, BC avoided some of the better Husky teams of the FBS era but still this was a craw in the side of many UConn faithful. Still, before the season, nobody could have reasonably predicted that this horrible streak would end this year. The BC win is another in a line of successes this season. Going in, we would have been happy with three wins. UConn eclipsed that and got the elusive FBS win, a road win, and a power five win this season. The most important thing that has been proven here thus far is that Storrs is not a wasteland where college football goes to die (or be really, really bad). Moving the program down because of a few bad years was a dumb idea, and now it looks even dumber. On this episode of the pod (our first since before the Ball State game, our apologies) the crew discusses what it means to beat BC, how much further UConn can go, and what the future holds for this program after its best season since 2015.
