The UConn Huskies have not had a winning season since 2010. The Huskies are off to a 3-2 start, and look like an improved team. Somehow after beating three soft opponents including a bad FCS team in Marrimack, the Huskies have been elevated to #67 in the ESPN power ratings. I'm really not sure how that can happen when the best team you have beaten is ranked #104. Temple is another cupcake on the schedule, but the ratings for the Huskies can be called into question here. To put things in perspective here, the Huskies have not been a 17 point or greater favorite vs an FBS opponent since 2012 vs. UMass, a team that has never won more than four games since they joined the FBS. Sorry, can't buy this one. Make the play on Temple.
