The Cougars enter the game against the University of Connecticut Huskies with one similarity to last year: They are undefeated.
That is where the comparison ends, though.
The main difference in this year’s game is a healthy senior quarterback Greg Ward Jr., who will start the game instead of coming in to play savior in the fourth quarter — like the Cougars’ last matchup with the Huskies.
Without Ward, the team struggled to move the ball. They managed only to reach the red zone once and converted it into a field goal.
The Cougars were averaging 256.
