Yes, this figures to be an emotionally-charged day for the UConn seniors. While other classes may have recorded more victories as a class, this group of seniors certainly were a productive bunch led by record-breakers Trevardo Williams and Nick Williams.
Now they will take the field against Cincinnati needing a win to become bowl eligible. With a loss, the seniors will exit with a second straight losing season. If the Huskies win, the top bowl options are the Beef O'Brady's Bowl on Dec. 21 in St. Petersburg, the Compass Bowl in Bimrngham, Ala. on Jan. 5 and Liberty Bowl in Memphis on Dec. 31.
Williams has a program record 30.5 career sacks while Williams' 2,420 combined kickoff and punt return yardage is more than any other UConn player. Williams is one of six seniors to record more than 100 career tackles while Ryan Griffin and Michael Smith gives the class a pair of players with 100 career catches.

OT Jimmy Bennett 14 career starts
