I agree about Delorenzo, he seems to be able to move the pile and could give Uconn more manageable passing downs
which will keep the UB defense honest.
The SNY writer Silver mentioned it after the Michigan game:
" The run game continues to under perform. A little better for the offensive line, but Lyle McCombs had 38 yards rushing
on eight carries with one 16 yard run and Max Delorenzo added 23 yards on six carries. I think they need to split carries
at RB. McCombs just isn't getting enough yardage on first down and I like him better on second and third down. Huskies
need more of a power back in there. Perhaps it's also a bit of the no huddle offense, but UConn may want to revamp and
get the fullback and maybe a couple of tight ends out there and get back to some power football. I would like to see that."
With the rush Buffalo seems to have....Uconn needs to get into shorter yardage situations. Whitmer and the passing game
can be alot more effective and less TO prone if they aren't in 2nd or 3rd and 10-15 yds. They also can't have the OL take
dumb motion penalties like they did twice last game, at key times, that put them behind the chains. The main thing is they
have to get more offensive balance however they do it.
I also noticed Uconn is a slight favorite so it's do or die time for PP and GDL:
