The 2024 Fenway Bowl between UConn and UNC was the most watched version of the bowl ever, and up 45% over Boston College v SMU in 2023. It was also the highest attended version of the bowl ever, with ~28000 fans in attendance for the game, driven by UConnâs proximity to Boston.
đ Bowl season delivered big for ESPN. @ESPNEvents' owned & operated bowl games delivered viewership highs for the 2024-25 season. 6 bowls achieved at least a 5-year viewership high. More ESPN #BowlSeason viewership highlightsâĄď¸

This is maybe the best endorsement of @CoachJimMoraFB @UConnFootball and @StorrsCentral you could ask for from FAU head coach Tom Herman after UConn beat the Owls 48-14 last Saturday. Awesome awesome awesome stuff. And weâre only gonna build on it

Ross - Just a reminder - UConn won 9 games playing FBS football this year and beat UNC in a bowl game which set attendance records overwhelmingly driven by UConn fans attending the game. UConn has had FBS football since 2000. Try again.
Hello, Big East fans! I should have used "non-FBS" instead of "mid-major"!. Thank you for your colorful comments.

Per the below, UConn has raised ~$1.25M in football NIL as of now and is looking to double that to $2.5M by next year at this time.

Very promising answer at the end of this for UConn and the potential for Big 12 membership. That smirk says a lot.

9:28pm update:. BOTH App State and Cincinnati have lost. It all comes down to the islands. New Mexico (5-6) @ Hawaii (4-7). If the Lobos win, we have 83 bowl eligible teams for 82 spots. If Hawaii wins, UConn is guaranteed a bowl berth. LETS. GO. WARRIORS!!!
Current situation - 82 teams for 82 spots. All 3 of the below must lose: . App State (down 15-6 at half) v GA Southern. Cincinnati (down 17-7 at half) v TCU. New Mexico (11:00pm kick) @ Hawaii. If UC & App lose, weâre gonna have to stay up for the Hawaii test tonight.

An interesting fact: . Half of UConnâs current Big East opponents were added to the league from a low major conference in the last 20 years:. CUSA: Marquette, DePaul.Atlantic 10: Xavier.Missouri Valley: Creighton.Horizon League: Butler. Certainly not an inspiring âpeerâ group IMO.
