| n rhythm,'' Buffalo head coach Jeff Quinn said. ``We struggled. The quarterback play is not where we needed it. There were a couple of plays where I thought we had our shot.'' Buffalo's best crack at crossing the goal line ended in the hands of UConn's Yawin Smallwood, who picked off Chazz Anderson's pass at the 2 and returned it 28 yards. Down 10-3, the Bulls went 70 yards starting at their own 15. Anderson found Alex Neutz for 45 yards to the UConn 6. But when Branden Oliver was stuffed | |

Despite their latest pledge to work together, the Big East still seems susceptible to another raid by the ACC or maybe the SEC. Adding UConn and possibly Rutgers, located in New Jersey, would allow the ACC to further extend its reach into the Northeast and the New York City television market. The SEC will be up to 13 schools when Texas A&M's move becomes official and even though | |

With All-American talent returning on both sides of the football, the Sooners are poised for another big season in 2011, one that could land them in the Nation | |

| e, West Virginia and Cincinnati are in consideration, but neither of those squad's are considered BCS bowl worthy at this juncture, let alone national title contenders. Last season was a microcosm of what the once-mighty conference has become, as UConn earned the league's automatic BCS bid with a 5-2 league record and favorable tie-breakers. Yes, this is the same group of Huskies that lost by scores of 30-10 at Michigan, 27-24 at Rutgers and 26-0 to a mediocre Louisville squad during the regula | |

| onnecticut football player Leon Kinnard has transferred to Towson and will join the Tigers for the 2011 season. The 5-foot-10, 185-pound Kinnard, who earned all-state scholastic honors at quarterback at nearby Loyola High School, was recruited to UConn when third- year Towson head coach Rob Ambrose was the Huskies' offensive coordinator.

With that kind of success, even in relative obscurity, it was only a matter of time before Edsall took his talents elsewhere. Maryland was his choice, and UConn has since turned to former Syracuse mentor Paul Pasqualoni to continue the program's development. Pasqualoni has a proven track record (107-59-1 in 14 seasons at SU) and his decision to keep several of Edsall's assistants assures the Huskies of s | |

As a sophomore last year, Forston recorded 37 tackles, 12 TFLs, three sacks and one interception. New head coach Al Golden has a solid base to work with in his first season and Forston is certainly one of those key players.
