UConn football fell at Miami (Ohio) after surrendering an early 14-0 lead, dropping to 2-2. With the game tied at 21 in the fourth quarter, Kalieb Osborne’s interception set up the field goal that proved decisive; a late UConn drive then stalled.
Miami quarterback David McComb passed for more than 300 yards before leaving with a leg injury. A UConn defensive pass-interference penalty helped produce the tying touchdown. Six of the seven defensive backs who recorded a tackle had hardly played a full game before coming to UConn and earning starting roles.
UConn scored just seven points in the second half. Its offensive line had three false-start or holding penalties among the team’s six penalties for 60 yards, and allowed two sacks and three quarterback hurries. Running back Cyncir Bowers led the Huskies’ backs in yards for a second straight week; he has 186 rushing yards and three touchdowns through four games. Syracuse visits UConn this Saturday.
