1. Randy Edsall: UConn
The Rutgers Scarlet Knights would probably love to play UConn right about now. They might prove that they aren’t the worst team in college football. Yes, the UConn Huskies might very well be the worst program at this moment.
The 2018 version of the team might be one of the worst ever in college football history. That’s say something and it’s saying that Randy Edsall could soon find himself out of a job if his historically terrible defense doesn’t turn things around.
Giving up 650-plus yards a week is a guaranteed way for a program to lose every single time they take the field and the Huskies have shown zero improvements on that side of the ball. Last week, Cincinnati embarrassed them.
This week, it’s the Memphis Tigers that will be the recipient of getting to face a bad defense. Jay Norvell is a creative mind when it comes to dialing up plays on offense and they could put up some serious numbers.
This is where things could really go from bad to worse. If they Huskies give up over 600 yards of offense again, the program might have to be reactionary and make a move right away to try and stem the bleeding. Edsall needs a miracle in his 13th year as head coach.
