The UConn Huskies are getting ready to start the third installment of the heated rivalry with Central Florida at Pratt and Whitney Stadium. Unlike last year, but not unlike the previous time here in Connecticut, UConn is the underdog.
In 2014’s matchup, a UCF team coming off a season in which it won the Fiesta Bowl over a top-5 Baylor team visited East Hartford on a cold, rainy day late in the fall. The Huskies forced turnovers and made a couple of big plays to defeat a Knights team which had lost its spirit by the end of the game.
