“I felt my hand go on the ball and I felt that I had a chance to get it out. I just stripped it out. It was a big play. We needed it,” UConn Huskies starting cornerback, Jasper Howard said after a 38-25 victory over Louisville Saturday. Howard was integral on assisting his team to cement a homecoming victory for the Huskies but as he and his teammates celebrated in the locker room, no one could predict that his post game interview would be his last.

Around 12:30 a.m. Sunday morning, Howard and another student were stabbed during a fight at an official university sanctioned dance held in the UConn Student Union. 

MICH-ING IN ACTION

Written by Keith Sterling You heard all of the cliches: "All good things must come to an end", "It happens to the best of us." ,"There's a first time for everything", "No pain, no gain" etc. Well, when it comes to the 2008 Michigan Wolverines football team, all of that and more couldn't be closer to the truth. The most winningest program in college football history missed its first bowl game appearance in 33 years. No Wolverine team has ever suffered 9 loses in a single season. Not to mention, its a been 21 years since Michigan lost to its 3 biggest rivals, (MSU, ND, OSU) in the same season. With all of these unfamiliar encounters facing the "Big Blue", in their defense, now is the best time to pull out the "Ill give you a pass on the terrible season card".
