EAST HARTFORD, Conn. — Rick Stockstill is always worried about the toll a road trip can take on a team.
But after what happened this Thursday? Where the Blue Raiders' plane was first delayed, then cancelled, then back on again? Where the team's three buses to the airport suddenly became two, forcing 100+ people into the seats and aisles. Where Middle Tennessee didn't even deplane in the Nutmeg State until after nine the night before? One can see how the Blue Raiders' 44-13 road win over UConn was even more impressive in his eyes.
