- List_of_Connecticut_Huskies_bowl_games abstract "The Connecticut Huskies (UConn) football team has represented the University of Connecticut in National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) football since the team's founding in 1896. The Huskies have played in five post-season bowl games since 2004, all following UConn football's transition from NCAA Division I-AA to Division I-A in 2000, and Connecticut's entry into the Big East Conference for football in 2004. UConn's four-season bowl invitation streak, from 2007 to 2010, was broken in 2011 when they finished with a final record of 5–7 and failed to become bowl eligible.Under former head coach Randy Edsall, the Connecticut Huskies football program enjoyed unprecedented success. Prior to his hiring in 1999, UConn only appeared in two post-season football contests, during the 1998 NCAA Division I-AA playoffs. In the past decade the Huskies, in addition to their five bowl appearances, have shared two Big East conference championships and been ranked at various times in the Associated Press (AP), Coaches', and Harris polls, as well as the Bowl Championship Series (BCS) standings.Multiple future National Football League draft picks have had superior performances for Connecticut in bowl games, including the first UConn player ever to be picked in the first round of the draft: running back Donald Brown. Brown made appearances in the 2007 Meineke Car Care Bowl, where he led all Connecticut rushers with 72 yards—fourth-best in UConn bowl game history—and the 2009 International Bowl, where he rushed for 261 yards and a touchdown and was named the game's most valuable player (MVP)—the best rushing performance in Connecticut bowl game history. Dan Orlovsky earned MVP honors for his UConn-bowl game-best passing performance in 2004; he was drafted in the fifth round of the 2005 NFL Draft by the Detroit Lions and currently plays for the Houston Texans. Wide receiver Marcus Easley was drafted in the fourth round of the 2010 NFL Draft by the Buffalo Bills.The Huskies' first post-season bowl game was in 2004, when they participated in the 2004 Motor City Bowl in Detroit, Michigan on December 27 against the Toledo Rockets. The most recent UConn bowl game occurred on January 1, 2011, when the Huskies faced the Oklahoma Sooners in the 2011 Fiesta Bowl, Connecticut's first Bowl Championship Series (BCS) appearance. A loss in that game brought Connecticut to an overall bowl record of three wins and two losses, a .600 winning percentage.".
