UConn 2023 Version

Jim Mora is set to start his second year as the head coach of the Huskies. This is his 8th season in College Football, and he has 46 wins under his belt.

The 2023 season will be their 23rd season in FBS football. The Huskies have not had a winning season since 2010, and this is the year folks are planning it to happen.

The UConn offense will look to use the running game of Victor Rosa and Devontae Houston behind an offensive line that has four guys returning.

Ta’Quan Robinson, who started his College Football career at Penn State, should be the starting quarterback for the Huskies. He will start over Zion Turner, who struggled last season after being thrown into the fire early in his career.

Aaron Turner left the program. He was the top receiver for the team a season ago. Louis Hensen, a tight end out of Michigan, should get plenty of looks, along with Kevens Clercius.

The Huskies are going to need more bodies to step up and catch passes down the field.

A season ago, the Huskies passing game was okay. The best teams on the schedule took advantage of it a little more, but this team has gradually gotten better against the pass.

Jackson Mitchell is one of the best linebackers in the country. While he is not huge, he gets the job done. Eriq Gilyard, a transfer out of Kansas, is another guy that should increase this defense’s ability to get stops

NCAAF Odds: NC Sate -15; UConn +15 / NC Sate -15; UConn +15 / O/U 46.5

The Week 1 affair is not an easy one. North Carolina State is going to be a good football team. The Huskies come into the game as more than a two-touchdown underdog here.

The total for the game is 47, so oddsmakers are expecting a low-scoring game. UConn would lose 31-17 or 34-17 if oddsmakers were always right about their job. Regardless, this is a tough test road for any team.

Huskies Win Total for 2023: 5

Oddsmakers have the win total for the UConn Huskies at five. There are three home games they should win; Florida International, Utah State, and Sacred Heart.

There are four road games the Huskies could win. Those are Georgia State, Rice, James Madison, and UMass. Five wins seem low. We like the OVER for the Huskies.

National Title Chances

The UConn Huskies do not play in a conference, so they do not get odds to win their conference. They do have odds to win the National Championship.

Things are not looking good for the Huskies in this department. Their odds starting the season are +200000, which is $1 to win $2000. It seems as if the Huskies may want to think one game at a time and maybe not quite a title yet in 2023.

These odds are tied with New Mexico State, UNLV, Middle Tennessee State, Kent State Temple, Temple, Miami OH, Utah State, and Nevada. They are ahead of Louisiana Tech and Buffalo and behind teams such as Army, South Florida, Tulsa, UAB, Florida International, and Georgia Southern.
