UConn football looks toward the future after a transitional 2025 season

UConn football enters the 2026 season under new head coach Jason Candle following a 2025 campaign defined by significant roster turnover. The program saw over 70 new players join the team during the offseason as the Huskies moved on from the era led by Jim Mora. The 2025 season included a 58-13 victory over Central Connecticut and a 31-25 win against Ball State, alongside narrow overtime losses to Syracuse and Delaware. Despite the challenges of maintaining consistency as an independent program, the team secured a bowl appearance for the second consecutive year. Coaching staff and administrative personnel are now focused on evaluating new position groups during the current preseason cycle. The Huskies open their upcoming schedule following these substantial changes to the roster depth chart.
