What a wild, strange trip it has been. After the disaster that was the 2016 UConn Football season, David Benedict made a change and brought Randy Edsall back to Storrs. It wasn’t exactly the change we expected, and it wasn’t met with immediate excitement, but Husky fans were pretty optimistic by the start of the 2017 season.
The wind really left the sails however as soon as the season kicked off. Randy Edsall’s debut teetered on the brink of a disastrous upset bid from FCS Holy Cross. Anyone who felt the season would be markedly different from seasons past was met with the harsh realization that it would not be the case.
