UConn 23 Ohio 16

The Huskies travelled to Ohio University on Saturday and came away with a victory over the hometown Bobcats. The Huskies defense looked strong all game allowing only 247 yards to Ohio. The Offense, however, could go from dominate to confused in a matter of plays. 

The team was led by the backfield tandem of Sophmore Jordan Todman and Senior Andre Dixon. Todman finished with 157 yards on 25 carries and walked in for the teams last touchdown early in the fourth. Dixon carried the ball 19 times for 100 yards and also caught two passes for 20 yards.

Junior quarterback Zach Frazer was erratic at best throughout the game finishing with 11 completions on 24 attempts for 127 yards with two touchdowns and three interceptions. While two of the interceptions were arguably not Frazer's fault, as they bounced off open receivers hands to the defenders, Frazer also considerably under threw an uncovered Brad Kanuch forcing him to comeback to catch the ball on a 35 yard touchdown pass.

The Defense was led by Senior defensive end Lindsey Witten who finished with three sacks including a  saftey in the third quarter. Junior linebacker Lawrence Wilson led the team with nine tackles.

The Huskies will take on the 20th ranked North Carolina Tar Heels, who beat The Citadel 40-6 on Saturday, next Saturday at 7P.M. in Rentschler Field.
