UConn is quite the formidable opponent

Heres where their D ranks vs rest of NCAA:
Rushing Defense - 105 Passing Defense - 100 Total Defense - 110 Scoring Defense - 121 Sacks - 121
I could see where they could wreak havoc against our Oline, which would causes DJ's inaccurate passing.

This also illustrates how serious the combination of game-day absences (injuries / illnesses) and (for the early part of the season ... not yet knowing who to block or where to go) can impair both the O-Line's performance and subsequently the offense's overall performance.
Despite what has turned out to a nearly-historically thin O-Line, if our main remaining 5 O-Line starters are reasonably healthy (i.e., able to overcome still-tender ankle and other banged-up conditions), then DJ will hopefully find time to do his check-downs and deliver the ball successfully.
Will we have enough people to catch the ball? That may be the biggest ??? for Saturday.

You know it's got to be bad when our OC makes a statement that our oline got pushed around by UConn. But we already knew that by our paltry rushing numbers. Sad, that's really sad. Embarrassing that a small amount of injuries to our oline room would cause such havoc.

If it's not one thing it's another for DJ!! I watch when DJ was holding his hand and I went back in slow motion and didn't see him hit a helmet or anything else. Just saying.

Uiagalelei hurt his hand?
Nov 18, 2021, 9:58 PM

And did not tell coaches until after the game? I know there is a badge of honor playing hurt, but at some point key players need to let coaches know they are hurt. That said, it is not like we are deep at QB. That is an issue that needs to get fixed next year. Portal?
Do we have ANY healthy QB who can run? (asking for a BUNCH of friends).

His best game would be
15 for 30 for 279 yards, 39% on 3rd down. 2 tds and 2 int.
So.... average.

"Best"! How about good enough to win without having to rely on the defense to bail us out again?

Playing hurt does not show commitment to the program. He should have taken himself out. That would have showed commitment to the program.
