There is keen-eyed, and there is the visual acuity The UConn Blog to note that Oklahoma’s schedule had UConn as its next opponent in the Fiesta Bowl earlier this morning. (I know, it’s more about Internet sleuthing than anything, but go with me.)
BCS Bowl Games Projection: Does A Website Goof Mean Connecticut Is In The Fiesta Bowl?
That matchup isn’t what we were projecting earlier — we’re banking on Connecticut to the Orange Bowl, and Stanford to the Fiesta — but it’s possible, if the Orange Bowl elects to bring the Cardinal to Miami.
A Connecticut-Oklahoma Fiesta Bowl would also be projected as one of the more lopsided games in BCS history. The Huskies are unranked in the most recent college football polls, and Oklahoma has been a top-10 team all season. But UConn’s greatest strength, the running game led by Jordan Todman, might actually match up well with the Sooners’ rush defense, ranked just 63rd nationally.
