Know your UConn Huskies: QB Zach Frazer


Leading up to the Jan. 2nd matchup in the PapaJohns.com Bowl between UConn and Gamecocks, LOHD will ensure you know who it is the Gamecocks will be beating in the Bowl game. 

First up, a quick look at who their man under center is....

Well believe it or not, it is a former Notre Dame Quarterback. 
UConn Starting QB Zach Frazer left Notre Dame after being told by now former ND Coach Weis that he would finish fourth in the four-man competition to replace Brady Quinn in May 2007.  He picked UConn over Cinncy to continue his football career and lead his current team to a win against his former team a few weeks back.

Frazer, a former Elite 11 QB participant, was UConn's starting quarterback to begin the 2009 season, but lost the job to Cody Endres when he hurt his knee.  Endres then ends up hurting his left shoulder during a 28-24 loss to Rutgers.  Enter the 'Zach Attack' or better known as Zach Frazer.

Here is Zach's stats in 2009 ---

The 6 foot 4 inch QB has passed for 1354 yds, was 107 for 197 with 9 INTs in 7 games.  He has been sacked 6 times in '09.  Since getting the starting job back after the Rutgers game he is 3-1 with wins vs. ND, Syracuse and USF.

As you can see, UConn has a capable passer to go along with their strong run game so again as LOHD has been saying this is not going to be a walk in the park.  It will be a good match-up and one that Carolina will have to be ready to execute.

thoughts?  stay tuned for more looks at the Huskies team.....
