The 麻豆原创 football team did not disappoint in the first game of the Josh Heupel era. The Knights racked up 652 yards of total offense, the defense came away with three turnovers, and 麻豆原创 laid a 56-17 beatdown on UConn in its season opener Thursday night on the road.<\/p>\n
The Knights extended their nation-leading winning streak to 14 games and will look to keep momentum rolling as they return home for a 6 p.m. matchup against South Carolina State on Sept. 8 at Spectrum Stadium.<\/p>\n
\u201cI thought we came out and played really well in all three phases,\u201d Heupel said. \u201cI talked about adversity a lot with the guys over the last eight months, and they handled it so well. It\u2019s a very mature group that woke up ready to play. I\u2019m really proud of what they\u2019ve done here. Our goal was to go 1-0, and that\u2019s what we did here.\u201d<\/p>\n
