"This week's episode is late! Mac, how could you?" Yes, yes, I messed up. After promising during last week's episode that we would record the following week after Monday's DePaul game, I realized that I had a work-related conflict and couldn't even watch the game, much less pod about it. So today I hold myself #accountable and join in the hot sauce fun that has swept UConn Twitter over the past week.

Hot sauce fun? Yes, since UConn erased its 18-point deficit against Marquette last week UConn fans have taken to drinking hot sauce as a means to hold themselves #accountable for negativity. At least originally. Now it seems like most of us are doing it just because we're weirdos, but the challenge has also taken a wonderful turn as people are now also raising money for the Husky Ticket Project, which helps provide Connecticut kids the opportunity to go see UConn games.

Anyway, Tim Fontenault is back to support me while I destroy my taste buds with Dave's Total Insanity Sauce, and we also talk a little bit about UConn's recent wins against Butler and DePaul. But mostly, hot sauce.
