THE GAME

UCONN VS. MEMPHIS HISTORYSaturday’s game will be just the second meeting between the two schools as the Huskies topped the Tigers 45-10 on December 7, 2013 at Rentschler Field – the season finale for both teams. UConn QB Casey Cochran threw for a school record 461 yards in the game for four touchdown. Cochran was 36 of 54 in the air and did not throw an interception. UConn WR Geremy Davis also had a record-setting day with a school single-game best 15 receptions to go along with 207 yards and a TD. UConn had 537 yards of total offense on the day, while limiting the Tigers to 257. Husky S Obi Melinfonwu led UConn with nine tackles.

UConn has a 2-4 record against teams from the state of Tennessee with a 0-2 record vs. Middle Tennessee (losses in 2000 and ’01) and a 1-2 mark vs. Vanderbilt (win in ’10 and losses in’02 and ’11).

UCONN-MEMPHIS CONNECTIONSThe UConn roster does not have any Tennessee natives on it nor does the Memphis roster have any Connecticut natives on it.

RENTSCHLER GAMEDAY/FAN ACTIVITIESThere are a number of new fan experiences for UConn football games this season:• There is a new route for the Husky Walk as the team arrives for games at Rentschler Field this year and fans get a chance to greet the team as they get off their buses and make their way to the stadium. The Husky walk, which takes place approximately, two hours and 15 minutes before kickoff, now starts in the Gray Parking Lots and the team will makes its way to the large tunnel near Gate B.• The UConn team now does its pregame warmup in front of the UConn student section on the South End of the stadium – a change from previous seasons. The Huskies will enter the stadium for pregame warmups on the con-course of Rentschler Field and go through the student section.• The break between the third and fourth quarter features “Coach D’s Play-list” as fans during the game will get to guess which song will be played from a collection of Diaco’s favorites based on a list shown earlier in the game. The choice for the BYU game was “This Is How We Roll (Remix)” by Florida Georgia Line and Jason Derulo while the selection for Stony Brook was “One” by Metal-lica and Boise State was “Cupid Shuffle” by Cupid. Temple was “Turn Down For

What” by White Snake and Cincinnati was “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough” by MJ.• The team and staff sings the “UConn Husky” fight song in front of the stu-dent section along with the UConn Marching Band following each game.• Once again, FanFest takes place starting four hours before kickoff up until 30 minutes before the game between Gates A and B outside the stadium gates. The offerings change each game, but activities typically include inflat-able games for children, live bands, promotional vehicles and UConn student-athletes from various teams signing autographs.

OFFENSE NOTES

FOXX MAKING ALL THE PLAYSUConn senior Deshon Foxx (Lynchburg, Va.) has UConn’s longest reception, rush and punt return of the 2014 season. The long rush came on Saturday when he had a 68-yard TD against UCF (Nov. 1) early in the second quarter that tied the game at 7-7. Foxx had the rush running out the option as a quarterback.

Foxx had an 88-yard TD pass reception from redshirt senior Chandler Whitmer (Newnan, Ga.) vs. East Carolina on Octo-ber 23. The play was the fourth-longest pass in school history and the longest since a 90-yarder from Dan Orlovsky to Jason Williams against Temple in 2004.

Foxx had a 72-yard punt return against Stony Brook in the third quarter of the game to help lead the Huskies to a 16-13 win.

BOYLE MOVES BACK TO STARTING QB Diaco announced on Monday, August 18 that redshirt sopho-more Casey Cochran (Monroe, Conn.) would be the starting quarterback for the Husky football team as the 2014 season begins. Redshirt senior Chandler Whitmer (Newnan, Ga.) was to serve as the No. 2 quarterback on the depth chart.

Cochran did start the opener vs. BYU and was 17 of 31 in the air for 171 yards and an interception. Whitmer was eight of 17 for 113 yards. Cochran has permanently discontinued play-ing football due to sustaining multiple concussions during his career.

Whitmer then started the next eight games for the Huskies while sophomore Tim Boyle (Middlefield, Conn.) started his

first game of the season – and fifth of his career – on Saturday vs. Cincinnati. Boyle was 13 of 21 in the air for 70 yards while Whiter also played and was one of five in the air for 11 yards.Whitmer started the win over Stony Brook and was 12 of 27 in the air for 142 yards and a touchdown. He was also the Huskies leading rusher with 29 yards on 13 carries. As the starter vs. Boise, Whitmer was 16 of 29 for 209 yards with two TD passes and two interceptions. Whitmer was the only QB to play at USF and was 6-of-10 in the air for 88 yards and a touchdown.

Whitmer was 18 of 30 for 303 yards vs. East Carolina on Oc-tober 23 with two TDs passes, including a strike of 88-yards to Foxx, which was the fourth-longest pass play in school history. Against Army, he had 68 rushing yards on eight carries and one TD and was also 19 of 31 in the air for 170 yards and two TDs. His 68 rushing yards were easily as career high topping his 17 against Maryland on Sept. 15, 2012.

Whitmer has now started 24 career games at UConn, with all 12 games in 2012, four in 2013 and eight this season. He has thrown for 5,031 career yards as a Husky and 25 touchdowns.

In addition to Whitmer and Boyle, Diaco also used Foxx in the Temple, UCF and Army games at quarterback. Foxx completed his only pass attempt on the day for four yards and also carried the ball three times for 30 yards vs. Temple, including a 26-yard rush. He had a 68-yard TD run from the quarterback position on vs. UCF. WHITMER IN EXCLUSIVE COMPANYAfter throwing for 303 yards at East Carolina on Oct. 23, Whit-mer became one of 11 quarterbacks in the FBS to eclipse 300 in a game in each of the past three seasons. The list is:

THREE FOR 300Whitmer, Boyle and Cochran each started games last year and all three of them have had a game of 300 or more passing yards. Cochran set the school single-game record for passing yards with 461 against Memphis in the season finale and also had 311 vs. Rutgers, which is 32nd.

Whitmer started the first four games of the season and passed for 349 yards vs. Maryland, which is the 12th highest in school single-game history. Whitmer also passed for 333 yards against Western Michigan in 2012 – which is 20th in school history.Boyle passed for 310 yards in his first collegiate start vs. USF last season, which is 33rd.

UConn never had a season with three 300-yard QBs and three seasons with two 300-yard QBs – 1990 (Cornelius Benton and Matt DeGennaro), 1991 (Benton and Tom DeSarno) and 1998 (Brian Hoffmann and Shane Stafford).

WHITMER IN UCONN RECORD BOOKSWhitmer’s name started to appear in the UConn record books early in the 2013 season. Here’s a summary: tied for fifth in career total offense with 4,809 yards; fifth in career plays with 879; fourth in career pass completions with 401; sixth in career passing attempts with 710; fourth in career passing yards with 5,042; and fifth in career yards per attempt with 7.10. His 361 pass attempts in 2012 were sixth in single-season history and his 208 completions were seventh while his 2,664 passing yards were fifth.

DAVIS CLIMBING THE LADDER TOOUConn senior wide receiver Geremy Davis has 36 receptions for 437 yards this season with seven receptions for 96 yards vs. BYU and six receptions for 113 yards against Stony Brook. He had three receptions for 47 yards against Boise State with a 10-yard TD reception. Davis and Whitmer hooked up for a 32-yard TD pass late in the fourth quarter of the USF game. Davis led UConn in receiving vs. Temple with eight receptions for 80 yards and also led the team vs. Tulane with eight receptions for 63 yards.

Davis has made a reception in 34-straight games that he has played in, dating back to the 2011 season, the 13th-longest such streak in the country.

He is seventh in career receptions with 157 while Brian Kozlowski is sixth with 159 from 1989-92. Davis is seventh in career receiving yards with 2,208 while David Dunn (1985-97) is sixth with 2,285. Davis’ 71 receptions last year were fifth in single-season history while his 1,085 yards were sixth.

DEFENSE NOTES

ALL THE PICKSRedshirt junior safety Andrew Adams tied a program record when he became the fifth Husky ever to record three interceptions in a game, doing so against UCF on Nov. 1. Adams was the first to accomplish the feat since Oct. 1, 2005, when current Indianapolis Colt Darius Butler recorded three picks against Army. UConn had two interceptions going into the UCF game, but recorded four in the contest to triple its previous season total. For his efforts, Adams earned a “Helmet Sticker” from ESPN’s Lou Holtz for the top defensive perfor-mance of the week. Adams added another interception against Cincinnati on Nov. 22 and now leads the Huskies with four picks this year, more than half of UConn’s seven total INTs.

JONES MAKES RETURN HISTORYSenior cornerback Byron Jones (New Britain, Conn.) had a 70-yard intercep-tion return for a TD late in the first half of the USF game on Sept. 19. Jones also has a career fumble return for a touchdown and became just the third Husky player to have a fumble return for a TD and an interception TD in a ca-reer. Jones fumble return for a TD also came against USF – in a 16-10 UConn win in 2011.

The other Huskies to achieve this feat were Yawin Smallwood (2011-13) and Anthony Carter (1996-99).

TACKLING MACHINESEach of UConn’s three starting linebackers for the BYU game recorded 11 tackles, which was a new career-high for every one of them. Redshirt junior Graham Stewart (Durham, Conn.) also added a tackle for loss and topped his previous personal best of eight stops, which came in the season opener last year against Towson. Jefferson Ashiru (Powder Springs, Ga.) factored into UConn’s lone sack in the BYU game and bested his previous career-high of 10 tackles in last year’s USF game. Marquise Vann (Cincinnati, Ohio) posted his 11 tackles after never previously notching more than five in a game in his career.

Vann had a huge game at USF on Sept. 19, upping his career-high by re-

cording 14 tackles, including nine solo stops. He also added 2.5 tackles for loss and leads the Huskies with 75 tackles in 2014. Vann has led the Huskies or tied for the team-high in tackles in four contests this year, and has at least eight tackles in nine of 10 games. He also notched his third double-digit tackle game with 10 stops at East Carolina on Oct. 23. Stewart had the most at Tulane on Oct. 11, and set a new-career high with 12 to lead all players against UCF on Nov. 1. He leads UConn with 8.5 tackles for loss after picking up his second sack of the year against the Knights. He again led UConn in tackling on Nov. 22 vs. Cincinnati, recording nine stops.

Junior Joseph (Sinking Springs, Pa.) has emerged as a starting linebacker and recorded a career-high six tackles vs. Cincinnati on Nov. 22. He has 30 overall tackles this year including 4.0 tack-les for loss and two fumble recoveries.

SEASONED SECONDARYAll four of UConn’s starters in the secondary started the first seven games this year, and likely would have continued to do so if not for a season-ending injury to redshirt-senior cornerback Byron Jones (New Britain, Conn.) at ECU on Oct. 23. A four-year starter, Jones ends his UConn career after 43 starts with 223 tackles, 18 pass breakups and eight interceptions.

The other members of the secondary that have started each game are redshirt-sophomore cornerback Jhavon Williams (Delray Beach, Fla.), redshirt-sophomore safety Obi Melifonwu (South Grafton, Mass.) and redshirt-sophomore safety Andrew Adams (Fayetteville, Ga.). Melifonwu was a 2013 Athlon Sports Freshman All-American honorable mention, and is fourth on the Huskies this year with 67 tackles. Adams recorded a career-high 10 stops on Oct. 23 at East Carolina and is second on the squad with 80 tackles this year.

True freshman Jamar Summers made his first career start at corner against UCF on Nov. 1. Summers has started each of the last three games at corner and has 21 tackles and a pass breakup this year.

THE BIG FELLAS UP FRONTRedshirt junior Julian Campenni (West Pittston, Pa.) and redshirt freshman Mikal Myers (Newburgh, N.Y.) are splitting time at nose guard this season, and had a dominant performance against the Stony Brook front on Sept. 6. Campenni tied a career-high with six tackles, making 1.5 stops behind the line of scrimmage. Myers set a new career-high with four tackles, including 2.0 tackles for loss and his first career sack. Myers had another big performance at Tulane on Oct. 11, notching two more tackles for loss. Fellow inte-rior lineman B.J. McBryde (Beaver Falls, Pa.) had a career-high six tackles at USF on Sept. 19, including his first career tackle for loss. Defensive end Kenton Adeyemi (Wethersfield, Conn.) recorded his first career sack on Sept. 27 vs. Temple and had a career-high nine stops on Oct. 23 at East Carolina.

Campenni and Myers have each recorded five tackles for loss this year, tying them for third on the UConn squad.

SPECIAL TEAMS NOTES

NEW FACES IN KICK GAMEUConn has a pair of new faces in both the kicking and punting department this season with the graduation of PK Chad Christen and P Cole Wagner. Wagner is second in UConn career punting average with 40.7 yards.

Redshirt sophomore Bobby Puyol (North Palm Beach, Fla.) is now the starting kicker this season after redshirting in 2013. He has converted nine of 12 field goals in his career, knocking down five straight to start this season. Puyol set a new career-high with a 44-yard boot against Tulane on Oct. 11 and is 16-for-18 on extra points this season. He also took over punting duties against Temple on Sept. 27, booting six times with a long of 41 yards and two punts downed inside the 20.

Redshirt sophomore Justin Wain (Wilmington, N.C.) is now the primary punter and the BYU contest was his first game action. Wain has 59 punts this season for an average of 39.2 yards per boot. Fifteen of his 49 punts have been inside the opponents 20-yard line – including six of his nine vs. Stony Brook on Sept. 6. Wain has also seen nearly half (26) of his punts go for fair catches and has launched five at least 50 yards. He was named the ECAC Rookie of the Week for his performance vs. SBU and had a season-long 56-yard boot at USF on Sept. 19.

Both Wain and Puyol were members of the 2013 American Ath-letic Conference All-Academic Team. Freshman Chase Briley (Hartford, Conn.), who played at Capital Prep High School, will be the backup at both kicker and punter.

THE RETURN GAMESenior Deshon Foxx (Lynchburg, Va.) provided a spark for the Huskies on Saturday, Sept. 6 when he returned a third-quarter punt 72-yards for a touchdown to give UConn a 19-10 lead with 9:22 left in the period against Stony Brook. This is Foxx’s first sea-son returning punts and now has seven returns for 91 yards. He is second in the American Athletic Conference at 13.0 yards per punt return and is 14th nationally. Foxx was named the American Athletic Conference Special Teams Player of the Week after the Stony Brook game and the ECAC Co-Special Teams Player of the Week.

Foxx’s punt return for a TD was the first for UConn since Nick Wil-liams had an 80-yarder vs. Pittsburgh on Nov. 9, 2012 at Rent-schler Field.

Foxx has also been part of the rotation for kickoff returns for the Huskies and has three for 48 yards this year.

Arkeel Newsome (Ansonia, Conn.) leads the Huskies in that category with 32 returns for 671 yards. His only return at Tulane on Oct. 11 was his longest of the season, a 47-yard burst to mark the best UConn kick return this year. Brian Lemelle (Harrisburg, Pa.) entered the kick return rotation at East Carolina on Oct. 23, returning four for 91 yards with a long of 28. Josh Marriner (Chesepeake, Va.) had a career-long 21-yard return vs. Cincinnati on Nov. 22.

STADIUM/ATTENDANCE NOTES

RENTSCHLER FIELDThe Huskies moved into Rentschler Field in East Hartford for the 2003 season and UConn entered its 12th season of play there on Friday. 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.

UConn has an all-time record of 50-27 at Rentschler Field and a 27-13 mark in non-conference games. UConn has played to 92.1-pct. of capacity all-time there, drawing 2,798,896 fans, or an average of 36,829 per game.

UConn set a new all-time single-game attendance record at Rentschler Field on Sept. 21 against Michigan with a crowd of 42,704. That capacity was achieved with extra bleachers brought in for that game.

EAST HARTFORD, Conn. - BYU junior quarterback Taysom Hill threw for three touchdown passes and ran for another two as the Cougars defeated the University of Connecticut football team in the 2014 opener for both teams. The game was played before a crowd of 35,150 at Rentschler Field and was the debut for new UConn head coach Bob Diaco.Hill completed 28 of 36 passes to nine receivers without an interception. He went 17 of 20 to lead the Cougars to a 28-7 halftime advantage, and was BYU’s leading rusher with 97 yards on 12 carries.“He was resilient and methodical and 28 points in the first half was ideal and that was something I was hoping to see,” BYU coach Bronco Men-denhall said. The Cougars put up 513 yards of offense, 329 of that before intermission.Husky sophomore Casey Cochran (Monroe, Conn.) and senior Chandler Whitmer (Newnan, Ga.) split quarterback duties and threw for a combined 284 yards. Cochran was 17 of 31 for 171 yards. He also threw an intercep-tion on the Huskies’ second drive deep in BYU territory. Whitmer was eight of 17 for 113 yards.“That’s the point you’re at right now,” Diaco said, who played 50 players combined on offense and defense. “For the players to get better, they have to play in games.”BYU got off to a quick start as Hill, who last year ran for more than 1,300 yards and passed for just under 3,000, capped the Cougars’ opening 15-play, 75-yard drive with a seven-yard run. He then found Mitch Mathews wide open over the middle from 26 yards out, after UConn fumbled on the Huskies’ first offensive play.Hill danced away from pressure late in the first half and found Terenn Houk open to his left for a 35-yard touchdown catch-and-run that made it 28-7 at the half. The quarterback capped the game with a 26-yard touchdown run to complete a 90-yard, fourth-quarter drive that sent the fans to the exits.Penalties slowed the game down as BYU committed 15 of them for 150 yards. UConn was flagged eight times for 90 yards.A fumble by BYU’s Mathews at midfield led to UConn’s only touchdown. Whitmer led the Huskies on a six-play drive that ended with freshman redshirt Josh Marriner (Chesapeake, Va.) scoring from a yard out in the second quarter.Redshirt sophomore Bobby Puyol (North Palm Beach, Fla.) made a 35-yard field goal for UConn in the fourth quarter.The Huskies put together an 11-play drive to start the second half, but failed after faking a 40-yard field goal.UConn’s top receiver, senior Geremy Davis (Lawrenceville, Ga.), finished with seven catches for 96 yards. He spent some time in the fourth quarter in the locker room, but returned before the end of the game.

EAST HARTFORD, Conn. - University of Connecticut senior wide receiver Deshon Foxx (Lynchburg, Va.) had a 72-yard punt return a touchdown in the third quarter to help lead the Husky football team to a 19-16 win over Stony Brook on Saturday at Rentschler Field before a crowd of 23,543.The win improves UConn to 1-1 on the season and gives Husky head coach Bob Diaco his first career college head coaching win. Stony Brook falls to 0-2 on the season.UConn redshirt senior wide receiver Geremy Davis (Lawrenceville, Ga.) caught six passes for 113 yards and a 30-yard touchdown and moved into seventh place on the Huskies all-time receiving list with 1,980 career yards.“It took us 10 weeks last year just to get one win,” Davis said. “A win is a win. These guys fought hard -- defense, offense and special teams.”The Seawolves, from the powerful Colonial Athletic Association, led much of the first half and trailed just 12-10 at halftime.Foxx gave UConn a 19-10 lead in the third quarter when he grabbed a 61-yard Luke Allen punt that had bounced over his head, turned left, then reversed field and found a seam down the middle.“He definitely outkicked his coverage,” Foxx. “I got a lucky bounce and when I was turning around I noticed that I had a whole lot of field to work with, so I just did what I can do and I had great blockers.”Stony Brook, which outgained UConn 300 yards to 223, put together a 14-play, 88-yard drive in the fourth quarter, capped by a 14-yard touchdown pass from Conor Bednarski to Will Tye. The Seawolves failed to recover an onside kick and could not move the ball after getting in back in the final minute deep in their own territory.UConn opened the game with a five-play, 40-yard drive that ended with a 42-yard field goal from redshirt sophomore Bobby Puyol (North Palm Beach, Fla.), who added a 27-yarder in the second quarter.Stony Brook took a 7-3 first-quarter lead after a punt pinned UConn on its own one-yard line. Safety Max Martinez then stripped the ball and Naim Cheeseboro recovered in the end zone.The Seawolves added another field goal late in the quarter after a UConn fumble, giving Stony Brook the ball at the Husky 20-yard line The Huskies had just 63 yards of offense before putting together a 70-yard drive late in the second quarter that put UConn up to stay.Redshirt senior quarterback Chandler Whitmer (Newnan, Ga.) found Davis in the right corner of the end zone for a 30-yard touchdown pass. The extra point was blocked. Whitmer completed 12 of 27 passes for 142 yards. He also was the Huskies leading rusher with 52 yards on 13 carries.UConn was also helped by its kicking game. Puyol’s first field goal was the longest of his career and redshirt freshman punter Justin Wain (Wilming-ton, N.C.) averaged 41.8 yards on nine punts. Stony Brook was forced to start six second-half drives inside its own 20-yard line.“The team today showed a lot of grit and grind,” said Diaco. “Our brother-hood shined through. Our culture shined through.”

The Broncos, who put up 676 yards of offense a week ago against Colorado State, were limited to 292 yards by the Husky defense. Boise State took advantage of UConn offensive miscues by scoring 14 points on turnovers.The Broncos scored on a fumble recovery in the first quarter and an inter-ception in the fourth. Boise held UConn to 48 yards rushing and sacked the Huskies quarterbacks eight times.Boise State, which ran 89 plays a week ago (60 in the first half alone) had just 56 this week. They did not have an offense snap for the first eight minutes of the game, but by that time the Broncos were up 7-3.UConn fumbled on its fifth play from scrimmage and Boise’s Tanner Vallejo picked the ball up in the backfield and ran untouched 31-yards for a touchdown.Hedrick found Miller for a 35-yard score in the second quarter, and Miller returned the favor on a trick play a few minutes later, hitting Hedrick for a seven-yard touchdown after getting the ball on an end-around. Boise led at the half 21-10. UConn closed the gap to 24-21 in the third quarter. Shane Williams-Rhodes muffed a punt return and UConn redshirt sophomore linebacker Jon Hicks (Palmyra, Pa.) recovered. UConn redshirt senior quarterback Chandler Whitmer (Newnan, Ga.) then found redshirt senior Geremy Davis (Lawrenceville, Ga.) for a 10-yard touchdown and hit fresh-man running back Arkeel Newsome for a two-point conversion (Ansonia, Conn.) to close it to 24-21 Boise.Boise’s Jonathan Moxey made a key fourth-quarter interception at the UConn 37-yard line. That led to a nine-yard touchdown pass from Hedrick to Miller in the back of the end zone that made it 31-21.Hedrick completed 19 of 27 passes for 233 yards and two scores. The Broncos got their second defensive score with four minutes left in the game when Donte Deayon ripped the ball and ran 50 yards down the right sideline for a score that made the final 38-21.Whitmer drove UConn 83 yards for its first touchdown, finding senior wide receiver Deshon Foxx (Lynchburg, Va.) down the left sideline for a 48-yard reception and hitting freshman tight end Alex Bloom (Ligonier, Pa.) over the middle for a 16-yard touchdown that gave the Huskies a 10-7 lead. Foxx finished with 107 yards receiving on six catches.Boise State running back Jay Ajayi, who came in averaging 158 yards a game and nearly six yards a run, was held to just 39 yards on 18 carries.

TAMPA, Fla. -- USF quarterback Mike White passed for 113 yards and a touchdown to lead the Bulls to a 17-14 win over the University of Connecticut football team before a rain-soaked an-nounced crowd of 28,723. UConn falls to 1-3 on the season while USF is 2-2 and the game was the American Athletic Conference opener for both squads.

White threw 30 yards to Rodney Adams and Marlon Mack ran a yard for first-quarter touchdowns that provided USF’s defense with most of the help the Bulls needed to win. Chris Dunkley sacked Husky redshirt senior quarterback Chandler Whitmer (Newnan, Ga.), forcing a fumble that the USF cornerback recov-ered at the Huskies 19 to set up Mack’s TD for a quick 7-0 lead. White’s scoring pass to a wide-open Adams on fourth-and-10 made it 14-0 late in the opening quarter.

UConn closed the game to 14-7 just before the half as senior cornerback Byron Jones (New Britain, Conn.) returned an inter-ception 70-yards for a touchdown with five seconds left. The inter-cepted pass glanced off the hands of Adams just before halftime. The UConn cornerback came close to stepping out of bounds as he crossed midfield on the runback, however the touchdown stood following a replay review. The game remained 14-7 until USF kicker Marvin Kloss hit what would become the game-win-ning score on a 19-yard field goal with 6:03 left in the game.

UConn pulled with three points on Whitmer’s 32-yard TD pass to senior wide receiver Geremy Davis (Lawrenceville, Ga.) with 1:19 remaining. USF recovered the ensuing onside kick and ran out the clock.

It was another close game in a series USF leads 7-5. The last eight meetings have been decided by seven or fewer points, and neither team has scored more than 19 in the last five matchups. The Huskies managed just 41 yards and on 18 plays in the first half and finished with a season-low 145 yards overall - more than half coming on the drive that ended with Whitmer’s TD pass to Davis. UConn didn’t pick up its second first down of the night until freshman running back Arkeel Newsome (Ansonia, Conn.) broke a 16-yard run midway through the third quarter. Three plays later, Whitmer got his first completion.

Whitmer finished six of 10 for 88 yards and no interceptions. The TD pass to Davis extended the receiver’s streak of consecutive games with at least one catch to 30. A week after yielding 589 yards to North Carolina State, the USF defense limited UConn to 57 rushing and didn’t allow the Huskies offense to cross midfield until the final two minutes.

Mack rushed for 103 yards on 31 carries for the Bulls, and White completed 10 of 18 passes with one interception.

EAST HARTFORD, Conn. -- Senior wide receiver Geremy Davis (Lawrenceville, Ga.) had 80 yards of receiving with eight catches, but the University of Connecticut committed two key turnovers as Temple posted a 36-10 college football victory over the Hus-kies on Saturday by a 36-10 score before a crowd of 27,755 at Rentschler Field. UConn falls to 1-4 on the season and 0-2 in American Athletic Conference play while the Owls are 3-1 overall and 1-0 in the league.

Turnovers hurt the Huskies, as Temple scored on a 93-yard interception return on the opening drive of the game for the Owls only points of the first half as they led 7-3 at intermission. Temple opened the second half with three touchdowns in the span of 7:26 to take control of the game with a 28-3 lead. The Owls scored on an 11-yard fumble recovery for the third touchdown.

Freshman Arkeel Newsome (Ansonia, Conn.) had a 74-yard touchdown catch from redshirt senior Chandler Whitmer (Newnan, Ga.), who threw for 163 yards and a touchdown. The touchdown pulled the Huskies to within 28-10, but Temple added a safety and two fourth quarter field goals for the win.

“We’ve got to eliminate game-changing turnovers,” UConn head coach Bob Diaco said. “Sixteen uncontested points. Impossible to win, a pick-six, fumble recovery for a touchdown and safety.”

The Huskies seemingly had a touchdown out of halftime when redshirt junior Wilbert Lee (Brooklyn, N.Y.) recovered a muffed kickoff in the end zone, but a UConn offsides on the kickoff ne-gated the play. Temple responded with quarterback P.J. Walker ultimately finding Jalen Fitzpatrick, who finished with 108 yards receiving, for a 42-yard pass play and a 14-3 lead.

UConn controlled the Temple offense well in the first half. The Owls managed only 31 total yards in the first half on 21 plays and had one first down, but the Huskies couldn’t capitalize. Redshirt sophomore Bobby Puyol (North Palm Beach, Fla.) hit a 30-yard field goal in the final moments of the first half to trim the lead to 7-3 going into the half.

NEW ORLEANS -- The Tulane football team, led by a stingy defense and the play of quarterback Nick Montana, defeated the University of Connecticut football team by a score of 12-3 on Saturday before a crowd of 23,076 at Yulman Stadium. Tulane improves to 2-4 on the season and 1-1 in American Athletic Con-ference play while the Huskies are 1-5 and 0-3.

UConn redshirt senior quarterback Chandler Whitmer (Newnan, Ga.) was 17 of 24 for 141 yards and the Huskies took an early 3-0 lead on a career-long 44-yard field goal by redshirt sophomore Bobby Puyol (North Palm Beach, Fla.).

Tulane gained 167 yards on the ground, led by Sherman Badie’s 77 yards on 14 carries. Montana completed 19 of 26 passes for 135 yards in his first start this season. Montana was Tulane’s starter a season ago as a junior, helping the Green Wave to a 7-6 record and its first bowl bid in more than a decade. He played with an injured throwing shoulder that season and in August, he lost his job to redshirt freshman Tanner Lee. Lee injured his shoulder vs. Rutgers two weeks ago.

Montana hit his first four passes for 53 yards, including a 21-yard-er over the middle, and his seven-yard scoring strike to Charles Jones to make it 7-3. Tulane took a 9-3 lead when defensive end Tyler Gilbert surged into the backfield and cut down UConn for a safety - a play set up by Peter Picerelli’s 38-yard punt to the UConn one-yard line.

Green Wave freshman kicker Andrew DiRocco, who missed four of five field goal attempts entering the game, hit a career-long 38-yarder in the fourth quarter to make it 12-3. That field goal attempt was possible after Montana spun away from what looked like a certain third-down sack, rolled right and threw back across his body for a 10-yard, first-down completion to Justyn Shackl-eford.

All three of UConn’s turnovers occurred in Tulane territory. In the second quarter, Doss intercepted a UConn third-down pass on the Tulane 38. Later in the quarter, Monroe ripped the ball away from a Husky runner as the pair went to the ground on the Tulane 30.

Down 7-3 in the middle of the third quarter, UConn was in field goal range, but Tulane once again recovered a fumble by Mon-roe.

We came here to win a football game, and we didn’t.”Carden started the Pirates’ go-ahead drive with a 30-yard throw to Hardy one play before Allen’s 23-yard run to the 12. When that drive stalled, Harvey - who earlier missed from 33 yards - kicked his field goal to make it 24-21.East Carolina forced a three-and-out, got the ball back with 5:22 left and ran most of the clock before Allen iced it with his 9-yard scoring run with 1:25 remaining.Whitmer’s 32-yard TD to Noel Thomas (Norwalk, Conn.) made it a 14-all game. His 88-yard catch-and-run to Deshon Foxx (Lynchburg, Va.) - after cornerback Josh Hawkins whiffed on the coverage - pulled UConn to 21-all with 3:43 left in the third.The first came when Hardy laid out in the end zone to catch his TD. Carden’s scoring pass to Williams made it 14-0 not even 10 minutes in.Whitmer countered with a short scoring plunge on fourth-and-goal from the East Carolina 1 on the next possession.Thomas had a career day with three receptions for 57 yards, while Foxx finished with 120 receiving yards for his fourth-career 100-yard day. Jefferson Ashiru (Powder Springs, Ga.) led UConn with 11 tackles, and Andrew Adams (Fayetteville, Ga.) and Mar-quise Vann (Cincinnati, Ohio) each made 10 stops.

EAST HARTFORD, Conn. -- Senior Deshon Foxx (Lynchburg, Va.) ran for 102 yards and a score and sophomore wide receiver Noel Thomas (Norwalk, Conn.) caught two touchdown passes to lead the University of Connecticut football team to a 37-29 Homecoming victory over UCF on Saturday before a soggy crowd of 28,751 at Rentschler Field.The win improves UConn’s record to 2-6 overall and 1-4 in the American Athletic Association while the Knights fall to 5-3 overall and 3-1 in the league.The win snapped a five-game losing streak for UConn and was the first conference loss for UCF, which had won 11 straight since the inception of the AAC last year.Sophomore running back William Stanback had a career-high 141 yards rushing and two touchdowns for UCF.Quarterback Justin Holman threw for 284 yards and two scores. but he also threw four interceptions, three of them to UConn redshirt junior safety Andrew Adams (Fayetteville, Ga.).Foxx, who normally plays wide receiver, ran the Huskies option package, carrying the ball 11 times, including a 68-yard touch-down run to tie the game at 7-7 with 12:22 to go in the second quarter. UConn had not scored more than 21 points in a game this season.The win capped an emotional homecoming for UConn, which unveiled a memorial at halftime to Jasper Howard, a cornerback who tragically passed away in 2009.The Huskies went three-and-out on their first five drives and had been outgained 113 yards to 19 before Foxx’s first carry in the second quarter.He sprinted 68 yards down the left sideline to tie the game at seven and his 20-yard run in the fourth quarter helped the Hus-kies to a 37-21 lead.Thomas caught a 38-yard touchdown pass in the first half and had a 22-yard catch in the third quarter that gave UConn a 10-point lead. UCF’s Stanback had 73 yards in the first quarter and 108 yards by halftime. He scored on a three-yard run to make it 7-0, and a one-yard plunge that gave the Knights a 14-7 lead.The Huskies took their first lead at 17-14 when redshirt sopho-more kicker Bobby Puyol (North Palm Beach, Fla.) hit a 38-yarder at the end of the first half. That was set up by an interception and 43-yard return by Adams.UCF took the lead back in the third quarter when J.J. Worton caught a pass from Holman in the middle of the field, cut back to his right and outran the UConn defense for a 73-yard touch-down. The Huskies responded with a 79-yard drive, scoring on a fourth-down run from freshman Ron Johnson (Naples, Fla.), the first of his two scores. His second was a two-yard run that put the Huskies up by 16 points after a missed extra point.

BRONX, N.Y. -- With Army clinging to a 28-21 lead, Black Knight Chris Carnegie returned his second interception of the day 99 yards up the left sideline for a touchdown to lift his team to a 35-21 win over UConn before a crowd of 27,453 at Yankee Stadium. The Huskies fall to 2-7 on the season while Army is 3-6.UConn pulled to within 28-21 with 2:06 to go, recovered the onside kick, and marched all the way to the six-yard line before Carnegie picked off a pass of senior quarterback Chandler Whitmer (Newnan, Ga.) at the one and ran it all the way back to clinch it.Whitmer had two touchdowns on 19-of-31 passing for 171 yards and added another score on the ground for the Huskies. Army quarterback Angel Santiago ran for 97 yards and two touch-downs on 25 carries to lead a balanced rushing attack. The Black Knights never trailed but almost faced overtime before Carnegie’s clutch pick-six.Joe Walker added two touchdowns on the ground for the Black Knights, who racked up 327 rushing yards to break a three-game losing streak.Whitmer didn’t get hot until late. Facing fourth-and-six with 12:54 left in the game, UConn stayed alive when Whitmer found redshirt junior tight end Sean McQuillan (Glastonbury, Conn.) over the middle for a 16-yard touchdown to pull to within 21-14.Army responded on third-and-goal with 4:22 remaining, when Santiago barely broke the goal line to go up 28-14. UConn cut it to 28-21 with 2:06 left on Whitmer’s one-yard completion to sophomore Noel Thomas (Norwalk, Conn.).Freshman Jamar Summers (East Orange, N.J.) recovered the onside kick for UConn when Army’s A.J. Schurr couldn’t secure it. Whitmer then broke loose for 26 yards on the opening play of the drive and picked up another first down two plays later with 1:20 to go.The nation’s No. 5 rushing offense, Army’s crafty triple option had no trouble against UConn’s 27th-best rushing defense. Some timely conversions and lengthy drives were a potent mix for Army, which pushed ahead by two touchdowns on the opening drive of the second half. Following its second fourth-down conversion from inside the six-yard line, Army went up 21-7 midway through the third on a pitch to Walker, who turned the corner for a two-yard touchdown.The Black Knights were back in UConn territory with 2:04 left in the first half when Santiago fumbled on a scramble. Redshirt freshman Junior Joseph (Sinking Spring, Pa.) recovered, giving the Huskies a crucial chance to get on the board before halftime. The Huskies didn’t waste the opportunity as Whitmer, back under center, found Thomas for a 26-yard pass to Army’s 32 before redshirt junior Max DeLorenzo (Berlin, Conn.), untouched through the middle, broke off a 26-yard run on his first carry.

EAST HARTFORD, Conn. - Gunner Kiel passed for 161 yards and three touchdowns and Cincinnati’s defense held Connecticut to 129 total yards in a 41-0 shutout on Saturday night.

Cincinnati (7-3, 5-1 American) remained in the hunt for the confer-ence championship, a half-game behind first-place Memphis (6-1) and tied with Central Florida (5-1). After Kiel’s touchdown pass to Johnny Holton early in the third quarter gave the Bearcats a 34-0 lead, Kiel gave way to backup Munchie Legaux. Rob Moore rushed for 108 yards and Mike Boone ran for 52 yards and a touchdown. Jeff Luc had 10 tackles, two sacks, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery for Cincinnati.

UConn’s offensive output was its lowest of the season. It was the first time UConn (2-8, 1-5) was shut out at home since Navy in 1978. Tim Boyle was 13 of 21 for 70 yards in his first start of the season.

Cincinnati took control early and, after an opening-drive intercep-tion by Kiel in the end zone, played flawlessly the rest of the half.Kiel rebounded to toss a 6-yard pass to Nate Cole for a 7-0 lead on the second drive of the game. The Bearcats piled up 151 yards in the opening quarter to Connecticut’s 15.

Cincinnati took a 14-0 lead early in the second quarter on Mike Boone’s 3-yard rush from a direct snap.

Payne intercepted Chandler Whitmer’s pass at the UConn 25, and Kiel found Jake Golic for a 2-yard touchdown pass in the waning seconds of the first half for a 27-0 halftime lead.

“Three turnovers that all produced points,” UConn head coach Bob Diaco said. “Cincinnati averages 40 points a game anyway, and now they are playing on half a field with extra possessions? You got no chance.”

Cincinnati had a 248-9 edge in offense, forced two turnovers and held a 15-3 edge on first downs in the first half.Cincinnati gave up 50, 41 and 55 in losses to Ohio State, Memphis and Miami, but played its finest game of the season on Saturday night.

“We didn’t panic, our front seven has got so much better and were are getting off blocks better and tackling better,” Tuberville said. “First five weeks, we missed more tackles and guys got more yards after contact than I’ve ever seen.”
