Husky Football Flashbacks: Pride before the fall

Welcome back, dear readers, to another episode of Husky Football Flashbacks, where I take you on a ride back in time through certain important games in UConn football history.

This week, we’re getting right to the juicy stuff: UConn vs. South Florida at Raymond James stadium on December 4, 2010. After not even a decade at the Division I FBS level, Randy Edsall had his team on the verge of taking on the Big 12 champion in the Fiesta Bowl. Nine years of progress had built up to this.

Despite waffling between starting quarterbacks throughout the year, the Huskies won four straight conference games against West Virginia, Pitt, Syracuse and Cincinnati to give them a chance at pulling off the impossible.
