Tosses pair TDs in start Fagnano completed 27 of 48 passes for 228 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 31-24 defeat versus Syracuse.
Impact With Nick Evers (undisclosed) injured, Fagnano returned under center. On the one hand the 27 completions were a personal best at UConn, but he averaged only 8.5 yards per completion. If Evers is still on the shelf, Fagnano will have a tough time against a UMass defense (Nov. 30) that is in the top 10 in the country against the pass. Most of the opponents preferred the run, the Minutemen defense has given up 193 yards per game on the ground and approximately 3 rushing touchdowns per game.

Throws 2 TDs in relief Fagnano was 5-for-12 passing for 72 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 31-23 victory against UAB.
Impact Fagnano came in the fourth quarter after starting quarterback Nick Evers(undisclosed) was injured to lead the Huskies to the victory. The senior has seen time in seven games this season, completing 62-off-110 pass attempts for 1,071 yards and 13 touchdowns. If he starts the next game against Syracuse, Nov. 23, he might have a tougher time throwing the ball against the Orangemen defense that is top 40 in the country against the pass.

Leads the way in relief Fagnano completed 24 of 41 passes for 272 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions during Saturday's 29-20 win over Temple. He also had seven rushes for negative three yards.
Impact It was Fagnano's best game as a starter this season against a FBS team. He threw for 328 yards and five touchdowns against FCS Merrimack on Sept. 7. The lone negative against Temple was the two interceptions. With a bye week this coming weekend, Fagnano might return as the backup with a possible return of starting quarterback Nick Evers with head injury. If he does start on Oct. 19 against Wake Forest, the senior could be in for a big game against Demon Deacons whose defense is near the bottom against the pass in the country.

Excels in victory Fagnano was 11-for-19 passing for 217 yards and three touchdowns during Saturday's 47-3 victory versus Buffalo. He also had six rushes for 19 yards.
Impact Fagnano came in the second quarter as starting quarterback Nick Evers was injured with nine minutes left in the first half. It was the best performance against an FBS team this season. If Fagnano is under center against Temple (Oct. 7), he will have a tougher time throwing the ball aganst the Owls defense that is in the top 10 in the country against the pass. It will probably be a running game on offense as Temple is at the bottom in the country against the run.

Impact Fagnano completed 13-of-19 passes for 328 yards and five touchdowns last week while filling in for Nick Evers (head). With Evers unlikely to suit up again Saturday, Fagnano figures to make a second start in a tougher matchup with the Blue Devils.

Impact Fagnano was more than serviceable during his start in place of the injured Nick Evers last week, throwing for 328 yards (13-of-19) and five touchdowns, adding on 38 yards and another score on the ground. Despite his standout performance, Evers, who continues to recover from a concussion, will start for the Huskies against the Blue Devils if healthy.

Fills in against Maryland Fagnano came in under center Saturday for Nick Evers (undisclosed), who left in the third quarter of the 50-7 loss at Maryland.
Impact The senior was adequate going 8-for-16 for 149 yards and one touchdown against Maryland. It was his first touchdown pass for the Huskies. If Fagnanon is under center for the next game, he should have good production against Division 1 FCS Merrimack on Sept. 7. In his first season at Connecticut in 2023, Fagnano played in two games and completed 18-of-35 for 173 yards. Before transferring to Connecticut, he played parts of four seasons at Maine.

Loses out on starting job Fagnano will not be UConn's starting quarterback, Dom Amore of The Hartford Courant reports.
Impact Unfortunately for Fagnano, he lost his quarterback battle with Nick Evers, a Wisconsin transfer who has logged only one pass since 2022. Ideally for Fagnano, Evers' lack of experience results in an output that favors the former returning under center.
