UConn Football Pod: Utah State reactions & interview with Patrick Mayhorn

UConn football is 0-5 but coming off its most encouraging performance of the season, one that offers something for the Huskies to build on despite the final result.

In this episode, Luke and Aman discuss UConn’s offensive breakthrough and the events leading to the Huskies’ loss, including the team’s decision at the end of the game of whether to go for two or take the extra point with hopes of going to overtime.

Later, we’re joined by Patrick Mayhorn, who runs the Utah State newsletter The Aggship and also writes and podcasts about Xs and Os and the Group of 5 for Meet at Midfield and Flipping the Field, a college football website and podcast that we think is pretty good.

Patrick offered his breakdown of the game and a fresh-eyed assessment of this UConn squad. We also asked him what he would do if he was in charge of the Husky football program.
