THE COACHES CONNECTICUT HEAD COACH PAUL PASQUALONI UConn head coach Paul Pasqualoni made his Husky head coaching debut a successful one on Sept. 3 as the Huskies topped Fordham of the FCS. The Cheshire, Conn., native was named the 28th head football coach in UConn history on January 14, 2011. Pasqualoni has had a highly-successful career on all levels of football -- professional, college and high school. He was the head coach at Western Connecticut from 1982-86 and led the team to the NCAA Division II playoffs in 1985. He had an extremely successful tenure as the head coach at Syracuse from 1991-2004. Pasqualoni led the Orange to 107 wins, four BIG EAST titles and a 6-3 postseason record. Among his bowl appearances at Syracuse were two Fiesta Bowls (1992 and ‘97) and an Orange Bowl (‘98). Pasqualoni is the all-time winningest coach in BIG EAST Conference league wins with 63 and overall wins with 110. He is just one of two league coaches in history to win four BIG EAST Championships. His overall college coaching record stands at 143-81-1 (34-17 at WCSU, 107-59-1 at Syracuse and 35 at UConn). For the previous five seasons, Pasqualoni had served on NFL staffs -- with Dallas in 2005-07 and ‘10 and with Miami in 2008-09. His first coaching job was an assistant coach at Cheshire HS from 1972-75. He is a 1972 Penn State graduate. SYRACUSE COACH DOUG MARRONE Doug Marrone is in his third year as the head coach at Syracuse. Marrone had a 4-8 record in his first season in charge of the Syracuse program and last year he led SU to an 8-5 mark and won the New Era Pinstripe Bowl with a win over Kansas State. He played on the offensive line for Syracuse from 1983-85 and then played two years in the NFL. He graduated from Syracuse in 1991 and then began his assistant coaching career. He was the offensive coordinator and offensive line coach for the New Orleans Saints from 2006-08 and also was the offensive line coach for the New York Jets from 2002-05. His college assistant jobs included stops at Cortland State, Coast Guard (1993), Northeastern, Georgia Tech and Tennessee before joining the NFL ranks.

UCONN IN BIG EAST OPENERS, BIG EAST HOME OPENERS Connecticut began BIG EAST Conference play on Oct. 28 vs. West Virginia and 2011 marks the eighth year of football league membership dating back to 2004. UConn now has a 3-5 record in BIG EAST openers with the loss at West Virginia. UConn has lost three straight BIG EAST openers as it fell 24-21 at Pittsburgh in 2009 In terms of BIG EAST home openers, UConn has now won seven of those eight games and the five past games in a row with the win over USF. UConn’s only BIG EAST home opener loss came in 2006 against fourth-ranked West Virginia. UConn was one of seven charter members of the BIG EAST Conference when the league was founded in 1979 and UConn is the only founding school that is currently playing football in the league and scheduled to do so in the future. The other five original members were Boston College, Seton Hall, Syracuse, Providence, Georgetown and St. John’s. UCONN AND SYRACUSE CONNECTIONS UConn head coach Paul Pasqualoni was the head coach at Syracuse from 19912004 and led the Orange to 107 wins, four BIG EAST titles and nine bowl games…among his wins at Syracuse was a 42-30 win over UConn on October 30, 2004 in Syracuse….SU head coach Doug Marrone was an assistant coach at Coast Guard in New London in 1993…UConn offensive coordinator George DeLeone was on the Syracuse staff from 1985-96 and 1996-2004, as he served as both offensive coordinator and defensive coordinator during his time there...UConn strength and conditioning coordinator Jerry Martin is a 1978 Syracuse graduate and a four-year letterman for the Orange...The Huskies have six native New Yorkers -- Stephen Brown is from Clifton Park, Joseph Danielson is from Baldwin, Reuben Frank is from Poughkeepsie, Wilbert Lee is from Brooklyn, Lyle McCombs is from Staten Island and Shamar Stephen is from Brookville. The Orange do not have any Connecticut natives on their roster…Corey Edsall, son of former UConn coach Randy Edsall, is a quarterback and punter on the Syracuse team…the freshman played his high school FB at East Catholic in Manchester, Conn.

It takes place between Gates A and B outside the stadium gates...The offerings change each game, but activities typically include inflatable games for children, live bands, promotional vehicles and UConn student-athletes from various teams signing autographs....The “Husky Walk” is a chance for fans to welcome the UConn team as they get off the team buses and head to the stadium. That takes place approximately two hours and 15 minutes before kickoff between Gates A and B...Once again this season at the end of home games, the UConn team will sing the “UConn Husky” fight song in front of the student section at Rentschler Field.

SQUAD NOTES CLOSE CALL HUSKIES UConn finished the non-conference portion of the regular season with a 2-3 record. That record could have been easily better as UConn lost to Vanderbilt, Iowa State and Western Michigan by a combined 14 points and led in the fourth quarter of each game. The October 8 loss at West Virginia was the first game this season that the Huskies did not hold a fourth quarter lead. UConn also did not lead in the fourth quarter of last Wednesday’s game vs. Pittsbrugh. In the Vandy game, UConn trailed 14-3 at the half, but came back to score 18straight points for a 21-14 lead with 10:34 to play.

HUSKIES IN THE NFL As the NFL held its training camps this past summer, there were a total of 14 Huskies in NFL camps before final cuts were made. UConn had 11 former players that were on NFL rosters in 2009 (a school high) and that number has been matched as 11 former Huskies are currently on NFL rosters. The 2009 NFL Draft made history for the Huskies as four UConn players were selected in the first 63 selections. UConn is the only BIG EAST school to have four players picked that early since the league was reorganized in 2005. UConn had two players selected in the 2010 NFL Draft and four more in ‘11. The number of former UConn players on NFL teams is now 11. They are: * Quarterback Dan Orlovsky of the Indianapolis Colts, who is in his seventh year in the NFL and played four years in Detroit and two with Houston. * Offensive tackle William Beatty of the New York Giants, who is entering his third year and has six starts over the past two seasons for the Giants. * Running back Donald Brown, who is entering his third year with the Indianapolis Colts. He was UConn’s first All-American in the BCS era and the Huskies’ first NFL First Round Draft Pick. He’s with the Indianapolis Colts and played in the Super Bowl his rookie year. * Defensive back Darius Butler, who played the past two seasons for the New England Patriots, was waived by the team and then signed by the Carolina Panthers * Defensive back Tyvon Branch, who is entering his fourth year with the Oakland Raiders. He has started all 16 games for the Raiders over the past two years. * Wide receiver Marcus Easley with the Buffalo Bills, who missed all of last season (rookie) with an injury, and is on the injured reserve list again. * Offensive guard Donald Thomas with the New England Patriots, who is in his fourth year in the league and has also played with the Dolphins and the Lions. He was picked up by the Patriots earlier this season. FB, Anthony Sherman, a fifth round pick of the Cardinals TB, Jordan Todman, a sixth round pick of the Chargers. He was waived by the Chargers on Oct. 22 and then resigned to their practice squad. LB, Scott Lutrus, who signed a free agent contract with the Jaguars and was released and was then signed by the Rams on the practice squad. LB, Lawrence Wilson, a sixth round pick of the Panthers, who was cut by the team and later resigned for the practice squad roster. HUSKIES IN THE CFL In addition, there are four former UConn players in the Canadian Football League this year. Martin Bedard (Montreal Alouettes) is entering his third year and has been part of two Grey Cup championship teams. Larry Taylor is in his fourth year in the league and is now with Calgary after spending the first three with Montreal. He was the 2009 CFL Special Teams Player of the Year. Julius Williams, who played at UConn through 2008, is in his first year with the Edmonton Eskimos. Jordan Younger is in his eighth season -- all with Toronto. Taylor and Bedard and the Montreal team won Grey Cup championship game last December by a 21-18 score against Edmonton.

HUSKIES ON THE REBOUND UConn is 28-17 in games following a loss since Oct. 26, 2002. BALL CONTROL IS THE KEY A telling sign of UConn’s strong performance on both sides of the ball during its tenure as a FBS program has been its ability to both record and prevent long drives. Since the start of the 2002 season, UConn’s offense has strung together 83 scoring drives of at least 80 yards (including two on Oct. 1 vs. WMU, one vs. USF on Oct. 15 and one vs. Pittsburgh on Oct. 26) while the Husky defense has surrendered just 59 such marches. West Virginia had two 80-yard drives on Oct. 8 and Pittsburgh had one on Oct. 26. UConn also holds a 20-6 advantage over its opponents in the number of 90-yard and over drives since becoming a I-A program. Michigan had a 96-yarder last year. UConn had a 93-yard drive on October 1 vs. Western Michigan. HUSKIES DOMINATING ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL Over the past 109 games, UConn has outgained its opponent 64 times. This stretch, like many UConn trends, dates back to a 28-24 loss at Vanderbilt on Oct. 26, 2002. CONNECTICUT’S FOUR CAPTAINS The UConn team selected four team captains for the 2011 season, Kendall Reyes (for the second-consecutive year) and Kashif Moore with Moe Petrus and Blidi Wreh-Wilson.

OFFENSE NOTES McCOMBS MAKES IMPRESSIVE DEBUT VS. FORDHAM UConn freshman Lyle McCombs’s (Staten Island, N.Y.) 141 yards of rushing in his collegiate debut in the Fordham game is the second-highest when compared against UConn’s top 10 career rushing leaders. The top mark belongs to Tony Jordan (No. 10), who had 144 yards vs. Northeastern to open the 1978 season. Other notables include: No. 1 Donald Brown, 118 yards vs. Rhode Island in 2006; No. 2 Terry Caulley, 62 vs. Boston College, 2002; No. 3 Jordan Todman, 81 vs. Virginia in 2008 (third game of season, was hurt for first two); No. 4 Wilbur Gillard, 91 vs. Furman in 1993; No. 6 Vinny Clements, 71 vs. Vermont in 1968; No. 7 Cornell Brockington, 25 vs. Indiana, 2003; No. 5 Ed Long, No. 8 Jeff Gallagher and No. 9 Andre Dixon did not have carries in their first career games. McCOMBS BACKING IT UP

UConnHUskiEs.Com

>> 2011 UConn football

McCombs rushed for 118 yards in the Sept. 10 game vs. Vanderbilt and his first college game against FBS competition. McCombs has now rushed for a total of 829 yards in his first eight collegiate games. McCombs also had 136 yards against Western Michigan -- including a 65 yarder -- and 130 vs. USF. He also had 124 vs. Pittsburgh. He is currently the 25th leading rusher in the country at 103.62 yards per game. McCombs has rushed for 100 yards or more in five of his first eight collegiate games. THE QUARTERBACK RACE Connecticut entered the 2011 season without a quarterback who has started a collegiate game and with only one quarterback who has played in a collegiate game. UConn started three different QBs last year, who have all moved on from the program -- graduated Zach Frazer with ten starts, including the last six of 2010; Cody Endres with two starts and Mike Box with one. Here’s a quick look at the three Husky QBs this year: * Senior Johnny McEntee (Fullerton, Calif.) -- Put some separation in the QB race with his performances vs. Buffalo and Western Michigan and is now the full-time No. 1 starter...walk-on who had played in two games over the past two seasons...gained international fame last winter with his “trick shot” video on YouTube...the video now has over six million hits...started the Fordham game and was 8 of 12 in the air for 113 yards...started the Vanderbilt game and was 10 of 27 in the air for 99 yards and three interceptions and was sacked four times...started the Iowa State game and was 13 of 30 in the air for 188 yards with one interception...was 12 of 21 in the air for 213 yards and his first two career TD passes...did not throw an interception...was 22 of 39 in the air for career-high 300 yards with four TDs passes...became the first Husky since 2006 to have four TD pases in a game...the four TDs are tied for fourth in UConn single-game history....threw for 193 yards of passing against West Virginia....was 13 of 23 in the the air for 103 yards and did not have any TDs or interceptions vs. USF...was 17 of 33 for 193 yards and two TDs vs. Pittsburgh...has not thrown an interception since the Buffalo game. * Redshirt freshman Scott McCummings (Natick, Mass.) -Redshirt freshman who attended same high school as Doug Flutie...had over 2,000 yards of passing in senior year with over 1,000 yards of rushing...passed for 15 TDs as a senior and rushed for another 12...was 1 for 1 in the air vs. Fordham with a 55-yard TD pass and also ran the ball seven times for 23 the in the Vanderbilt game..was 1 for 3 in Iowa State game with a 39-yard TD pass to Kashif Moore....had five carries for seven yards vs. Buffalo...had five carries for 17 yards vs. Western Michigan....had one carry for four yards vs. West Virginia....had four carries for 18 yards vs. USF and was one of two on passing for 32 yards...had one pass completion for nine yards against Pittsburgh and also ran the ball three times for 23 yards. * Freshman Mike Nebrich (Burke, Va.) -- Highly-decorated Virginia high school player who enrolled at UConn for the spring 2011 semester...as a senior, broke the Virginia state record for all-purpose yards with 4,968 and scored 59 TDs...had 11 yards of rushing vs. Fordham with 60 passing yards on 3 of 8...was one of two in the air vs. Vanderbilt...was 1 for 3 in the air for two yards vs. Iowa State...also had four carries vs. Iowa State...was 0 for 1 in the air vs. Bufffalo and has been playing the first series of the second quarter.

EXPERIENCE ON THE LINE

(ISIAH) MOORE HITTING HIS STRIDE

Whoever gets the nod at quarterback for the Huskies plays behind an experienced offensive line. Senior center Moe Petrus (St. Laurent, Que.) has started 47 consecutive games for the Huskies -- and the last 34 at center. Senior right tackle Mike Ryan (Tamaqua, Pa.) returns after earning All-BIG EAST first team honors last year and has started 29 games over the past two years. Junior Adam Masters (Bethesda, Md.) plays right guard and started ten games last year -- the final six at right tackle. Sophomore Kevin Friend (Warrentown, Va.) plays at left guard and had a pair of starts last year.

UConn senior wide receiver Isiah Moore (Cambridge, Mass) had a career-night vs. Iowa State as he had eight catches for 143 yards for two career highs. He also had a 41-yard reception, which topped his career high. His previous single-game career highs were four receptions in four different games, 76 receiving yards at Baylor in 2009 and a 28-yard long reception in that same game. He backed that game up with another good game vs. Buffalo as he was UConn’s leading receiver with four receptions for 49 yards and a long of 16. He had two catches for 18 yards vs. Western Michigan and four catches for 41 yards at West Virginia. He was UConn’s leading receiver vs. USF with five receptions for 48 yards. Moore is UConn’s leading receiver with 28 catches for 364 yards this season.

GRIFFIN NAMED TO MACKEY MID-SEASON WATCH LIST As the offensive philosophy of head coach Paul Pasqualoni and his offensive coordinator George DeLeone develops at UConn, throwing to the tight end has obviously been emphasized. The third-leading receiver on the team is redshirt junior Ryan Griffin (Londonderry, N.H.), who has 24 receptions this year for 367 yards and a two TDs. He had four receptions for 73 yards vs. Western Michigan and was the leading receiver vs. WVa with five receptions for 57 yards. He had three receptions for 38 yards against USF and had four receptions for 44 yards and a TD vs. Pittsburgh. Griffin was named one of 25 tight ends nationally to be named to the John Mackey Award Midseason Watch List. He was one of just two BIG EAST players named to it -- joining Nick Provo of Syracuse.

(KASHIF) MOORE HITTING HIS STRIDE UConn senior wide receiver Kashif Moore (Burlington, N.J.) had a career day for himself vs. Western Michigan on October 1. He set career highs with eight receptions for 112 yards vs. the Broncos. He also had a career-high two receiving TDs in the game. Moore led UConn with six receptions for 106 yards against Pitttsburgh -- including a 62-yard TD pass. He is the second leading receiver on the team with 27 receptions and leads the team with four receving TDs. WILLIAMS BACK ON RECEIVING END UConn junior Nick Williams (East Windsor, N.J.) had been making headlines over his career mostly in the kickoff return depart-

ment. Although he was always part of the WR group, Williams led the country in kickoff returns last year and was a First Team All-BIG EAST pick in that spot. UConn head coach Paul Pasqualoni has been using Williams more in a receiver role this year, but entering the Sept. 24 game vs. Buffalo, Williams still only had two career receptions -- both of them in 2009. Williams broke out of that with a pair of catches vs. the Bulls for 113 yards, including his first career receiving TD. Williams first reception of the night was a 64-yarder from McEntee late in the first half that set up a UConn TD with 15 seconds to go to give the Huskies a 10-3 halftime lead. He then had his first career TD reception on a 49-yard catch from McEntee with 4:52 left in the game to seal the UConn win. Williams had one catch for 26 yards vs. Western Michigan and two catches for 21 yards vs. West Virginia.

DEFENSE NOTES LOTS OF STARTS, STARTERS BACK Connecticut returned one of the most experienced defenses in the country and in the BIG EAST Conference this season. On the defensive line, UConn returned players that started 45 games in 2010 and 93 for their career. The linebackers had just nine career and nine starts from ‘10 returning. The secondary was also very experienced with 45 starts back from last year and 71 for their careers. For totals, the UConn defense had 100 starts returning from last season and a total of 173 career starts. JENNINGS GETS FIRST CAREER START Connecticut redshirt junior Teddy Jennings (Dayton, Ohio) made his first career start in the season openeing against Fordham at defensive end. He responded by making eight tackles -- with 2.5 for a loss. He enjoyed another outstanding game vs. Vanderbilt as he made four tackles with 2.5 for a loss and he had three tackles vs. Iowa State. He had two tackles vs. Buffalo with a sack and two tackles against West Virginia. He had four tackles against USF -- including a tackle for a loss of two yards. Jennings moved into the starting lineup after playing in 13 games over the past two years as a reserve. He started in place of the injured Jesse Joseph, who did not dress for the first time in his career vs. Fordham. The junior had started in 25 games over the past two years, missing one game, but dressed for it. Joseph did make his 2011 debut vs. Buffalo and had five tackles himself and then had three vs. Western Michigan. Joseph moved back into the starting lineup against West Virginia and did not have a tackle. He started again vs. USF and had four tackles with half a tackle for a loss and had four tackles and a sack vs. Pittsburgh. SMALLWOOD IMPRESSES EARLY Connecticut redshirt freshman Yawin Smallwood (Worcester, Mass.) is currently the second-leading tackler on the UConn team with 61 tackles -- nine off the team lead. He has started all seven games for UConn in his first collegiate season and also seems to have a knack for making the big play. Against Vanderbilt, he returned a fumble 64 yards for a touchdown and then had a 28-yard interception return vs. Buffalo. The interception vs. the Bulls came at a key time as it came on a third and goal play from the UConn five with the Huskies nursing a 10-3 lead.

UConnHUskiEs.Com

>> 2011 UConn football JONES HONORED BY BIG EAST As UConn head coach Paul Pasqualoni looked for the right combination in his secondary, redshirt freshman Byron Jones (New Britain, Conn.) made his second and third career starts vs. West Virginia and USF. He also started vs. Pittsburgh. Jones responded in fine form vs. USF as he returned a fumble 10-yards for a TD to provide the winning score for the Huskies in the win. He also made seven tackles in the game. For his efforts, Jones was named the BIG EAST Conference Defensive Player of the Week -- the first weekly league honor for the Huskies this year. Jones’ fumble return for a TD was the second for the Huskies this season as Smallwood had a 64-yarder vs. Vanderbilt. The two fumble returns for a TD mark just the third time in school history that the Huskies have achieved multiple fumble TD returns -- joining the 2001 squad (Jamal Lundy vs. Utah State and Cliff Hill vs. Buffalo) and 1997 (Jeff DeLucia vs. Buffalo and Anthony Carter vs. Rhode Island). BROWN ALSO TAKING TO STARTING ROLE Redshirt freshman Ty-Meer Brown (McKeesport, Pa.) has made his first career starts in the last three games vs. West Virginia, USF and Pittsburgh. Against the Mountaineers, Brown had four tackles, a fumble recovery and returned an interception 48-yards in the fourth quarter for UConn’s only TD of the day. He backed that up with an eight tackles and one interception game vs. the Bulls. He made six tackles against Pittsburgh.

SPECIAL TEAMS NOTES TEGGART CAREER LEADER IN FIELD GOALS, POINTS Redshirt senior Dave Teggart (Northborough, Mass.) has connected on all 117 of his extra point attempts during his career -- including 36 in 2010 and 47 in 2009. The 47-straight extra points from 2009 is a school record while his 36 from 2010 is third. * His 66 career field goals is a school record. It is also third in BIG EAST history. * His 117 extra points is second in school history while Matt Nuzie had 124 from 2003-06. His 314 career points is first in school history as he topped that record in the game at Vanderbilt. * Teggart’s 25 field goals last year was a school singleseason record. He had a total of 14 field goals in 2009 which is tied as the sixth-highest in school history while his 13 as a freshman is seventh. * Teggart kicked a career-long 53-yard field goal at West Virginia on Oct. 8 in the second quarter. The 53-yarder is tied as the second longest in school history -- the longest is 56 by Jim McManus vs. New Hampshire in 1998. There have been two other 53-yarders in school history -- Domingos Carlos vs. Holy Cross in 1983 and Bob Segar in 1978 vs. Rhode Island. * Of the 15 field goals in UConn football history of 50 yards or more, Teggart has five of them. * Teggart has had five games this season with multiple field goals and 19 during his career. He has 10 career games with three of more field goals. Teggart recorded what is arguably the biggest play in school history in the regular season finale of 2010 as he kicked a 52-

vs.

>> 2011 UConn football yard field goal with 17 seconds left to play to lift UConn to a 19-16 win over USF that sent the Huskies to their first BCS game in school history. Earlier in the fourth quarter of that game, he kicked a 50yarder. Teggart matched his USF yardages vs. Iowa State (Sept. 16) as he tied his then career high with a 52-yarder in the first quarter and added a 50-yard in the third. Teggart kicked a 27-yard field goal in overtime to lift UConn to a 16-13 win over West Virginia on Oct. 29 of last year. He had a total of three field goals in that game and was named the BIG EAST Special Teams Player of the Week for his efforts. Those “final play” game-winners were the second and third of his career as he ended the 2009 regular season in fine form as he booted a 42-yard field goal as time expired to give the Huskies a 29-27 win over USF. Dating back to 2009, Teggart has kicked a field goal in 19 of the past 21 games. Teggart kicked a 29-yard field goal with 1:10 to go that tied the game vs. Notre Dame (Nov. 21, 2009) -- a contest the Huskies eventually won in overtime. Teggart is the first kicker in school history to successfully convert his first 11 field goal attempts. NICK WILLIAMS AND KO RETURNS UConn sophomore Nick Williams (East Windsor, N.J.) had a breakout night in his receiving career against Buffalo on Sept. 24, but remains the primary UConn kickoff and punt returner. Williams led the country in kickoff returns last year with 35.29 yards per return and he returned two kickoffs for TDs in 2010. Against Pittsburgh he returned a kickoff 95 yards for a touchdown. Williams also had a 100-yard KO return for a touchdown vs. Rutgers -- the fourth in school history. Williams becomes just the second Husky ever to have two KO returns for a TD in a career -- joined by Tyvon Branch, who had both of his in 2007. This year he has 22 kickoff returns for an average of 21.1 yards per return and 14 punt returns for an average of 6.2.

FAN NO. 2,000,000 On Friday, Sept. 16, UConn welcomed the 2,000,000 fans to Renstchler Field in its history. That lucky fan was Shane Buzzell of Manchester, Conn., and he received a variety of prizes and made an appearance on the field. The Huskies have sold out 29 of their first 55 dates at Rentschler Field, including a stretch of 12 in a row. UConn has played to 95.9-pct. of capacity all-time there, drawing 2,109,015 fans, or an average of 38,346 per game. RENTSCHLER FIELD PROVES FRIENDLY FOR HUSKIES The Huskies went 7-0 at home in 2007 at Rentschler Field and also 6-0 last year. UConn’s 3-4 mark at home in 2006 was its only sub-.500 record at Rentschler Field. The seven home wins in 2007 set a school record for a single season which was previously set in 2004. Prior to the Iowa State loss, UConn had won nine consecutive games at Rentschler Field. UConn presently stands at 41-14 all-time at Rentschler Field including a 23-6 mark in non-conference games. MICHIGAN, TENNESSEE WILL VISIT RENTSCHLER FIELD Following UConn’s trip to Ann Arbor on Sept. 4, 2010, the Wolverines will come to Rentschler Field on Sept. 21, 2013 to take on the Huskies. UConn will also play a home-and-home series with Tennessee beginning in 2015 with the Volunteers coming to Rentschler Field on Sept. 26 with a return trip to Knoxville on Sept. 3, 2016. Other upcoming non-conference opponents coming to Rentschler Field include Iowa State (2011), North Carolina State (2012), Maryland (2013), Central Florida (2014) and Virginia (2106). UConn has now played host to non-conference opponents from the Atlantic Coast Conference, Big 10, Big XII and Southeastern Conference at Rentschler Field.

STADIUM/ATTENDANCE NOTES RENTSCHLER FIELD The Huskies moved into brand new Rentschler Field in East Hartford for the 2003 season. Conveniently located within miles of Interstates 91, 84 and 384, the home of the Huskies lies on 75 acres of land donated to the State of Connecticut from the historic Pratt & Whitney Airfield. The stadium, like the former airfield, is named for that company’s founder, Frederick Rentschler. The stadium boasts a capacity of 40,000 with 38 luxury suites in a massive press box tower which helps enclose the natural grass field. A HOT TICKET Swelling interest in the Husky football program as it gradually moved up into BIG EAST play can perhaps be best evidenced by the rise in attendance. UConn sold 28,000 season tickets in 2008 and sold its entire allotment of student season tickets at 4,700. These figures are staggering sums considering that the entire 2001 season ticket base was around 4,000. In 2002, the number reached 11,300 in the final season of Memorial Stadium. The burgeoning season ticket base more than doubled to 24,000 for the inaugural season at Rentschler Field and rose to 28,000 a year later in 2004. UConn reached an alltime high of 32,000 season tickets in 2005.

EAST HARTFORD, Conn. - Freshman running back Lyle McCombs(Staten Island, N.Y) rushed for 141 yards and four touchdowns in his first collegiate game as the University of Connecticut football team won their 2011 season opener, 35-3, over Fordham before a crowd of 34,562 at Rentschler Field. The game marked the Connecticut debut for head coach Paul Pasqualoni, who tied Frank Beamer of Virginia Tech for the most overall wins by a BIG EAST coach. They both have 108 victories. Pasqualoni was the first Connecticut football coach to win his debut since 1923.

TEAM STATISTICS

The Huskies initial drive ended in a punt after two first downs, but on their second possession began to force their will on their FCS opponent after forcing a Fordham three-and-out. A six-play, 58-yard drive was capped by a McCombs two-yard run. The key play on the drive was a 24-yard pass from Johnny McEntee (Fullerton, Calif.) to Isiah Moore(Cambridge, Mass.). The Huskies started the redshirt junior McEntee, but Pasqualoni played three signal callers in the contest. Redshirt freshman Scott McCummings (Natick, Mass.) and true freshman Michael Nebrich(Burke, Va.) both played well in their Connecticut unveilings. Early in the second quarter, the Huskies took over from their own 20 and McCombs had his first big play from scrimmage, rambling 60 yards before being caught at the Ram two-yard line. Two plays later, McCombs scored from the one and Connecticut had a 14-0 lead. The Connecticut defense, which was spectacular all day, got its first turnover of the season when redshirt freshman safety Byron Jones (New Britain, Conn.) picked off a Peter Maetzold pass. On the next play from scrimmage, McCummings hit redshirt junior tight end Ryan Griffin(Londonderry, N.H.) with a beautiful 55-yard catch-and-run off of play action to put the Huskies ahead by three scores. The Huskies kept that 21-0 lead until midway through the third quarter when McCombs capped drives with scoring runs of five- and one-yard. McCombs' four touchdowns was the first time a Connecticut footballer achieved that feat since Jordan Todmanturned the trick against Cincinnati in 2009. McEntee completed eight-of-12 passes for 113 yards, while Nebrich was three-of-eight, for 60 yards and one interception. The McCummings scoring pass to Griffin was his only attempt of the game. Griffin set a career-standard with his 97 receiving yards. The Connecticut defense held the Rams to just 169 total yards of offense and was led by redshirt junior linebacker Jory Johnson(Mobile, Ala.), who had 11 tackles. Redshirt junior defensive end Teddy Jennings (Dayton, Ohio) had 2.5 tackles for loss.

McCombs rushed for his 118 yards on 27 carries and has now rushed for at least 100 yards in his first two collegiate games. Husky junior quarterback Johnny McEntee(Fullerton, Calif.) was 10 of 27 in the air for 99 yards, but had three interceptions. Larry Smith was 12 of 24 in the air for 140 yards while Jerron Seymour had eight carries for 70 yards. On Vanderbilt's first drive of the fourth quarter, redshirt freshman Yawin Smallwood (Worcester, Mass.) returned a fumble 64 yards with 10:34 left to go, giving UConn its first lead of the game, as the Huskies took a 21-14 lead. On the fumble return, Vandy had the ball at the UConn 36 and Sio Moore's(Apex, N.C.) hit of Smith jarred the ball loose and Smallwood was home free. After the UConn defense forced Vanderbilt to punt on their ensuing drive, McEntee threw his third interception of the night, as Robby Barbieri returned the interception 50 yards to tie the game at 21-21. Vanderbilt was able to take the lead with 2:56 left, as Carey Spear converted a 31-yard field goal for the 24-21 Vandy advantage. UConn trailed 14-3 at halftime, but scored the only ten points of the third quarter to make it 14-13 entering the final stanza. On Vanderbilt's third play from scrimmage of the second half, junior Jory Johnson (Mobile, Ala.) picked off a Smith pass to give UConn the ball at the Vandy 17. UConn could only move the ball six yards to set up a 28-yard field goal by senior kicker Dave Teggart(Northborough, Mass.). The Huskies then cut the lead to a point, 14-13, as redshirt freshman Byron Jones(New Britain, Conn.) blocked a punt in the endzone. It was UConn's first blocked punt since 2008 and the first for a TD since 2002. Connecticut moved the ball efficiently on the first possession of the game as it marched the ball to the Commodore 12-yard line with a first down. The Huskies could only manage four more yards, which set up a 25-yard field goal by Teggart. The field goal gave Teggart the UConn career scoring record with 262 points, which he extended later in the game. Vanderbilt went four and out on its first possession, but McEntee threw a first down interception picked off by Kenny Ladler that put the ball at the UConn 42. Vanderbilt came right back on the next play with a 42-yard TD pass from Smith to Chris Boyd to give the Commodores a 7-3 lead. Vandy took a 14-3 lead on a 40-yard rush by Seymour on a second and ten play that capped a six-play 80 yard drive. The Commodores had 134 yards of total offense in the first quarter and 82 of them came on scoring plays. The Commodores maintained the lead 14-3 at halftime after a second quarter that did not feature any scoring as UConn only had 35 yards of total offense with VU having 28.

Connecticut redshirt senior wide receiver Isiah Moore recorded careerhighs in receptions and yards with eight catches and 143 yards. The winning score for Iowa State came with 9:08 left in the game when Darius Reynolds leaped over a pair of UConn defenders and raced across the goal line for a 20-yard touchdown reception from junior quarterback Steele Jantz. Jantz threw three interceptions in the first quarter but finished with 200 yards. The Huskies used a trio of quarterbacks with redshirt junior Johnny McEntee taking the majority of snaps as he went 13-30 for a season-high 188 yards. Redshirt freshman Lyle McCombs led the UConn running game with 46 yards on 18 rushes. Sophomore Shontrelle Johnson and redshirt sophomore James White split the carries for ISU with 14 apiece. Johnson went for 65 yards, while White ran for 44. Connecticut opened the game with a 10-play, 57-yard drive that resulted in a touchdown for redshirt freshman quarterback Scott McCummings. McCummings, in the game for just his second play, was initially ruled down at the one-yard line, but after an official review it was determined that the ball crossed the goal line prior to his knee hitting the ground. For the game, McCummings rushed for 38 yards on 10 carries. The two teams would trade turnovers several times in the remaining minutes of the first quarter as redshirt junior Dwayne Gratz picked off Jantz on the Cyclone's first play from scrimmage. Gratz returned the ball 19 yards to the ISU 41-yard line, but UConn gave the ball back on the very next play as McEntee was intercepted by Steve Ruempolhamer. Jantz was intercepted again, with less than three minutes to play in the first, by redshirt freshman Byron Jones, which set up a 52-yard field goal by redshirt senior kicker Dave Teggart to put the Huskies up 10-0. For Teggart, it tied his career long. Before the end of the first, UConn would force a third turnover as Jory Johnson grabbed a ball off a pass broken up by linebacker Sio Moore. Despite outgaining Iowa State 101-4 in the first, Connecticut went into halftime up only 10-7 as the Cyclones held a 114-13 advantage in the second quarter. ISU got on the board when James White broke loose for a 26yard touchdown run to cut the Huskies lead to three. The Cyclones went on top early in the third quarter when White flipped the ball to junior WR Josh Lenz on a reverse, who threw a deep ball for Reynolds to take into the end zone. UConn came back with a 50-yard field goal from Teggart, the second time in his career he converted two field goals of 50 yard. With 6:44 left to play in the quarter, Iowa State added to its lead with a 36-yard field goal by senior kicker Zach Guyer, to go up 17-13. Connecticut regained the lead early in the fourth quarter as McCummings hooked up with redshirt senior wide receiver Kashif Moorefor a 39-yard touchdown to take a 20-17 lead. McCummings has completed two passes on the season, both for touchdowns. On the defensive side of the ball, junior linebacker Jake Knott made 11 tackles and forced one fumble for the Cylcones, while Johnson added 10 tackles to go with his interception for the Huskies.

FOURTH QUARTER UC-Nick Williams 49 pass from McEntee (Teggart kick) 4:52 (6 plays, 64 yards, 2:32) Attendance-18,215 AMHERST, N.Y. - The University of Connecticut football team posted a 173 win against the University at Buffalo before a crowd of 18,215 at UB Stadium. UConn junior quarterback Johnny McEntee (Servite, Calif.) took the majority of snaps and was 12 of 21 in the air for 213 yards and two touchdowns, the first two of his career. Junior wide receiver Nick Williams (East Windsor, N.J.) sparked the Husky offense with a pair of big plays, the first of which was a 64-yard catch and run that set up the first Connecticut touchdown of the game. Williams' second catch was another catch and run, going for 49 yards and a score with 4:52 left in the game to seal the win. Redshirt freshman quarterback Scott McCummings (Natick, Mass) ran the ball 5 times for 7 yards while freshman QB Michael Nebrich (Burke, Va.) attempted just one pass. Husky redshirt freshman Lyle McCombs (Staten Island, N.Y.) had 30 carries for 61 yards. UConn redshirt senior Isiah Moore (Cambridge, Mass.) made a team-best four receptions for 49 yards. Branden Oliver led Buffalo in rushing with 23 yards on 85 carries while quarterback Chazz Anderson was 18 of 39 in the air for 192 yards and ran for 30 yards on seven rushes. For the second time this season, the Huskies held their opponent to just three points, the first of which came in a season-opening 35-3 win over Fordham. Despite just the one score, the Bulls moved the ball for 314 yards, including 122 on the ground, opposed to UConn's 292 yards of total offense. The Huskies led at halftime 10-3 and the third quarter was scoreless. UCconn redshirt freshman linebacker Yawin Smallwood (Worcester, Mass.) made the biggest play of the quarter as he made an endzone interception on a third and goal play by the Bulls at the UConn five. Buffalo had moved the ball 80 yards on 11 plays on that drive. UConn took that 10-3 halftime lead when it scored the first touchdown of the game with 15 seconds left to go. The drive began on the UConn 17 as McEntee threw a 15-yard pass to McCombs to move the ball to the Husky 32. McEntee then hooked up on the longest Husky pass play of the year on a 64-yard connection to Nick Williams to put the ball at the Bull 4. McEntee then threw a four-yard TD pass to redshirt junior fullback Mark Hinkley (Kanehoe, Hawaii) for the UConn lead. It was the first TD pass in McEntee's career and the first TD reception of Hinkley's. After a scoreless first quarter, the two teams opened scoring by trading field goals in the second quarter. Peter Fardon gave the Bulls a 3-0 lead on a 28-yard field goal with 5:28 left in the quarter to cap a 13 play-57 yard drive. Fadron had missed a 30-yarder at the beginning of the second quarter. UConn broke into the scoring with a 47-yard field goal by senior Dave Teggart (Northborough, Mass.) that ended an eight-play 51-yard drive. Teggart had a 49-yard FG attempt blocked in the first quarter.

Kashif Moore had two touchdown catches and 112 yards receiving and Lyle McCombs added 136 yards rushing and a 26yard touchdown reception for the Huskies. Alex Carder threw for a career-high 479 yards and five touchdowns to lead Western Michigan. Two of those scores were caught by Jordan White, who had his fourth 100-yard receiving game of the season, catching 12 balls for 173 yards. He was one of three Bronco receivers to go over the century mark. Robert Arnheim had 113 yards and Chleb Ravenell added 123 and two fourth-quarter touchdowns, including a 41-yard catch that turned out to be the game winner. After making a 26-yard catch at the Western Michigan 13-yard line with 45 seconds left, UConn tight end Ryan Griffin fumbled. UConn scored the first of the fourth quarter's five touchdowns, when McEntee found McCombs open behind the Broncos' blitzing linebackers for a 26-yard score to give UConn its only lead at 24-17. But Carder led the Broncos right back on a 9-play 80-yard drive, finding White in the end zone for a 6-yard touchdown that tied the game. The Broncos held UConn to a three-and-out, and then went 62-yards to take the lead again on a 14-yard pass from Carder to Ravenell. UConn tied it again when McEntee scrambled and found Nick Williams on a fourth down from 26 yards out with just over 2 minutes left. Two plays after UConn's kickoff went out of bounds, Ravenell raced down the right sideline and reached over cornerback Gary Wilburn to bring in a 41-yard touchdown with 1:35 left. Arnheim beat Wilburn down the right sideline and made a one-handed 32-yard catch to set up the Broncos second touchdown, an 11-yard pass from Carder to tight end Dallas Walker. The Broncos went 66 yards on their first drive of the second quarter and scored when White grabbed a slant pass and dragged several UConn defenders into the end zone for a 25-yard catch and run. The Huskies didn't cross midfield until McCombs took a handoff at his own 7-yard line with just over 6 minutes left in the half, bounced off a tackle and ran 65 yards before tripping on the grass. That set up a 9-yard touchdown pass from McEntee to Moore. Moore's second touchdown, a 3-yard reception on a play-action fake, was set up by his 47-yard catch and run. The 5-play 72-yard drive brought UConn to within 17-14 midway through the third quarter.

The game was played before a crowd of 56,179 at Mountaineer Field at Milan Puskar Stadium as Connecticut is now 2-4 on the season and 0-1 in the BIG EAST while the No. 16 Mountaineers are 5-1 and 1-0. Stedman Bailey had seven receptions for 178 yards and two scores and Dustin Garrison had 80 rushing yards to help lead the Mountaineer effort. Redshirt senior Johnny McEntee (Servite, Calif.) was 21 of 37 in the air for the Huskies with 193 yards. The Huskies were led in rushing by redshirt freshman Lyle McCombs (Staten Island, N.Y.) with 20 carries for 73 yards. WVU led 10-9 at halftime, but the game took a dramatic momentum change midway in the third quarter as Connecticut had driven to the Mountaineer 13-yard line. On a first down play, McEntee rushed the ball to the 10, but then fumbled the ball and WVU's Jewone Snow recovered and returned the ball all the way to the UConn 12 with 7:54 left in the quarter. West Virginia scored two plays later on a 12-yard TD pass from Austin to Smith that made it 17-9 Mountaineers. WVU took control of the game, when after a Husky three-and-out, the Mountaineers got the ball at their own 16. Smith threw an 84-yard TD pass to Stedman Bailey to give WVU 24-9 lead. The Mountaineers added two more points on a safety with 2:31 left in the third quarter as McEntee was sacked in the endzone to make it 26-9 and Smith had a 22-yard TD pass to Brad Sparks with nine seconds left in the quarter to make it 33-9. Tyler Bituncurt kicked a 33-yard field goal for West Virginia with 10:52 left to make it 36-9. The Mountaineers went on to score 33 unanswered points when Smith added a second touchdown pass to Bailey, on a 27-yard toss to the end zone with 8:51 remaining in the game. After a quick three-and-out by UConn, WVU made a change at quarterback. Freshman Paul Millard entered the game and was picked off on his first play by Connecticut red-shirt freshman Ty-Meer Brown. Brown nearly came close to stepping out of bounds, but stayed in to return the ball 48 yards to the end zone for the only Husky touchdown of the afternoon. West Virginia led at halftime by a 10-9 count as UConn senior kicker Dave Teggart (Northborough, Mass.) accounted for all of the Huskies' nine points on three field goals.

Attendance-37,162 EAST HARTFORD -- University of Connecticut redshirt freshman Lyle McCombs (Staten Island, N.Y.) ran for 130 yards and senior kicker Dave Teggart (Northborough, Mass.) kicked three field goals as the Huskies beat USF 16-10 on Saturday without scoring an offensive touchdown. The Homecoming contest was played before a crowd of 37,162 at Rentschler Field. Redshirt freshman cornerback Byron Jones (New Britain, Conn.) ran a third-quarter fumble back 10 yards for what turned out to be the winning score after senior defensive tackle Twyon Martin (Parkland, Fla.) stripped USF running back Darrel Scott deep in UConn territory. B.J. Daniels threw for 164 yards and ran for 64 and a touchdown. But the USF quarterback also threw two interceptions and had a key fumble. The Bulls failed to convert on a fourth down with just under 2 1/2 minutes left and the Huskies ran out the clock. A 32-yard run from Daniels had given the Bulls the ball in UConn territory. But a fourth-down pass to Sterling Griffin was stopped four yards short of the first-down marker. Teggart, who beat South Florida with last-minute field goals in their two previous meetings, hit from 18, 46, and 28 yards. Connecticut won despite having just 253 yards of offense, and much of that came from McCombs, who carried the ball 30 times and recorded his fourth 100-yard game. The Bulls' defensive line spent much of the afternoon in UConn's backfield, tying a school record with seven sacks. The Huskies had given up just 17 in their previous six games. Daniels scored on the Bulls' first drive of the second half with a 22-yard scramble through the UConn defense, cutting left to leave redshirt freshman linebacker Yawin Smallwood (Worcester, Mass.) behind on his way to the end zone to give USF a 10-6 lead. But Smallwood later made a key play, tipping a pass that redshirt junior Sio Moore (Apex, N.C.) intercepted to stop a fourth-quarter drive. Offensive mistakes and good defense kept both teams out of the end zone in the first half. USF defensive end Ryne Giddins had nine of his 11 tackles in the first half, to go along with two sacks, a forced fumble. But the Bulls managed just 75 yards of offense and two turnovers before intermission. The teams traded field goals in the first quarter. Maikon Bonani hit a 23yarder to open the scoring, and Teggart capped a 16-play drive on the next possession with an 18-yarder. Teggart hit a short kickoff into a strong wind and Marcus Shaw returned the kick 79 yards to the UConn 8-yard line. But Daniels' errant pitchout on a second-down option play was picked up by UConn redshirt junior Dwayne Gratz (Piscataway, N.J.). UConn gave the ball back a few plays later when McCombs fumbled. But the Bulls failed to score, when a 46-yard field-goal attempt into the wind fell short. He also missed a 44-yarder in the third quarter that went wide left. Teggart's second field goal came just before halftime, a 46-yarder that capped a 15-play drive and made it 6-3. His third field-goal, a 28-yarder, cut the lead to 10-9, less than a minute before Martin and Jones teamed up for UConn's defensive score. The Husky offense has now gone two games without a touchdown. USF coach Skip Holtz had not been back to Connecticut since coaching the Huskies from 1994-1998. UConn was still a Division I-AA program then, and Holtz led the school to the Division I-AA playoffs in 1998, the school's first postseason appearance.

Pittsburgh outgained UConn in total yardage 529-316 on the night despite loosing Ray Graham, the country's second-leading rusher, on his second carry of the game. UConn junior quarterback Johnny McEntee (Fullerton, Calif.) struggled in the air as he was 17 of 33 for 193 yards and a two TDs. Redshirt freshman Lyle McCombs (Staten Island, N.Y.) enjoyed a productive night on the ground as he rushed 25 times for 124 yards. It marked the fifth 100-yard game of his eight-game collegiate career. Sunseri was also the top ground gainer for the Panthers with 12 carries for 40 yards and a TD. Zach Brown was Sunseri's favorite target of the night with 9 catches for 84 yards to go with 30 yards gained on the ground. Pittsburgh led 21-3 at halftime but the Huskies scored the first ten points of the second half to cut the Panther lead to 21-13 with 4:08 left in the third. Senior Kashif Moore (Burlington, N.J.) scored UConn's only TD of the night as McEntee found him wide open with 11:35 to go in the third for a 62yard score to make it 21-10. Moore finished the game with six receptions for 106 yards. UConn cut it to 21-13 on its next possession as senior Dave Teggart (Northborough, Mass.) hit a 31-yard field goal. It was Teggart's fifth game of the year with multiple field goals and the 19th of his career. That UConn drive began at its own 22 and the Huskies moved all the way to the Pitt 10-yard line for first and goal, but had to settle for the field goal. As it appeared the game might be turning the Huskies' way, Pittsburgh quickly came back after the field goal and moved the ball 82 yards on only five plays for a score that made it 28-13. The touchdown was scored on a 27-yard pass from Sunseri to Mike Shanahan. Ronald Jones replaced Sunseri late in the fourth quarter and led the Panthers on their fifth touchdown drive of the night as he found Devin Street for a 14-yard touchdown reception to cap a three play scoring drive. UConn got a one touchdown back with less than a minute to play as McEntee hooked up with junior tight end Ryan Griffin (Londonderry, N.H.) from 14 yards out to put the game at 35-20. Pittsburgh completely dominated the first half outgaining the Huskies in total yardage 321 to 80 and holding a 17-5 first down advantage. The Panthers scored on their first possession as they moved the ball 84 yard on eight plays in 2:18. Graham injured his leg on his second rush of the drive, but the Panthers did not flinch as they gained 51 yards on the next four plays for the score. Zach Brown had a three-yard rush for the 7-0 Pitt lead. Pittsburgh made it 14-0 on a 17-yard TD pass from Sunseri to Shanahan that capped a seven-play, 62-yard drive. Sunseri was a perfect five-for-five in that drive for 54 yards in that drive. UConn finally broke into the scoring column when Teggart hit a 40yarder with 7:17 left in the half to make it 14-3. Connecticut moved the ball effectively as it started on its own 32 and got the ball to first and ten on the Pitt 25, but could only get two yards from there to settle for the field goal.
