Didn’t they pull out of their conference? My guess is after the other conferences went to plus 1 or conference only models they didn’t have anyone left to play.

That's what i figgered. Notre Dame jumped in with the ACC so they wouldn't have to do the same.

plus intense state travel restrictions meant they were only going to be able to play like 2 games as of right now

uconn is not some small program anymore. this is a pretty big deal.

They will not be the only more. More programs will be cancelling the season soon.

According to media reports, requirements that visitors from other states quarantine for at least 2 weeks had already caused nearly half a dozen games to be cancelled for the regular season. With New York, CT and NJ adding Rhode Island to the growing list (which now includes 35 states and territories) earlier this week, UConn was struggling to book new opponents. There's your reason for canceling the season, pure and simple.

I wouldn’t be shocked if they never return to the FBS level

liberty, New Mexico State, Army, BYU, UMass, Notre Dame, be the 1 non conference game for some of the teams playing a OOC game.

That might be the plan.

How much $ would a program like UConn lose by sponsoring a football season without fans and not being part of a conference?

that’s why it was easy to cancel. They didn’t have the buy games to Keep it afloat anyway.
