They certainly aren't expected to accomplish that feat tonight, as they are 1-5 on the road and facing an unbeaten opponent. UConn moved to 9-0 on Sunday with an 89-73 decision over St. Mary's, thus giving head coach Jim Calhoun his 742nd career victory, good for 13th on the all-time NCAA list.

That win was the third in a row for the Rebels, who suffered their only loss to national powerhouse UConn on the road. They have yet to post a quality win, but that would certainly change if they can find a way to knock off Memphis.

Louisville followed with a 58-yard drive for a 37-yard field goal from Art Carmody, who then missed a 38-yard attempt in the first minute of the second quarter. The Cardinals fumbled a punt after UConn's next offensive series, but the Huskies gave it right back on the next play when Dan Murray caught a pass and fumbled at the Louisville 34.

Think for a moment about the standout performers from last season's UConn squad that have moved on. Rudy Gay is gone, as are Marcus Williams, Rashad Anderson, Josh Boone, Hilton Armstrong and Denham Brown.

STORRS, Conn. (AP) -Connecticut safety Marvin Taylor has been thrown off the football team following his arrest on larceny charges. UConn coach Edsall said Thursday he was clarifying the school's position after a statement released Wednesday said Taylor had been suspended indefinitely from the team. ``As always with all of our football student-athletes, when they become involved with actions that are detrimental to the program, university, and themselves, we gather information as quickly | |
