After canceling its 2020 season due to COVID-19 concerns, there’s a black hole of data surrounding UConn football heading into 2021, affecting everything from opponent scouting to Vegas betting odds to the team’s depth chart (or lack thereof).
It also gives predictive statistics, like SP+ from ESPN’s Bill Connelly, a rather large headache. The system relies on returning production and without anything to draw from in 2020, it reverts back to 2019.
So with that in mind, it’s no wonder that this predictive statistic has such dire news for the Huskies in 2021. UConn went 2-10 in 2019, ending No.
