Weber State – Thu 8/30 6pm – Pac12 TV 
I’m so pumped. Missed all of last season but guess what ladies and gentlemen? IM BACK. if you see me at the stadium or tailgate lot, come up and say hi. Take a pic. Send it to me through here. I’ll post pics on Twitter. 👍🏻 Go Utes!
I was ready in March.

Moss v. Smith 2.0?
Look at those thighs. *my wife shudders*
Judas priest
Really nice to have an NFL back on our team this year. Hopefully we use him as much as possible. Truck rating has got to be near 100 at this point.
That dude is JACKED! O_O
Ah. Mah. Gahd.
Bernard had a sack on the first play they saw. He’s everything you hoped he’d be.
Barton looked really good. Not necessarily who you want starting, but as a backup, he’s amazing. They think Bernard will be starting by week two or three.
Mariner just makes amazing catch after catch. He looks to take Carrington’s role. Not a deep threat, but great closer. Simpkins has potential to be the deep threat.
BOOM! Seems like a solid addition to the team.
Message sent.
I’m interested. How much?
We’re looking for &500
Why can’t you people wait for me to log on before selling your tickets to the one home game I’m planning on attending this year?
I need 5 seats but I’d take a block of four.
If they aren’t already gone let me know, and we’ll talk.
There is one guy that came in before you, but they may be too rich for his blood. I’ll let you know if he opts out.
Arizona is the one game I will be able to attend this year as well (I already have tickets though). Living out of state really stinks for football season!
Dammit ’72 you know I’d take ’em. Wannabe…
Besides that second time I bought from you I ended up sitting right next to a guy I testified against in Federal Court. Awwwwwwkward, but so worth it.
Frankly, I’m hurt…
Didn’t think you’d want four.
Well if your deal falls through let me know.
Is anyone still looking for Az tickets? I have 2 w09 row 14.
Small Lake City!
Agreed. The heat and the air quality in the valley don’t make the waiting any easier, either. We’ll soon be looking at two weeks to go. I can’t wait.
Something to help pass the time:
Presented for amusement and gauging what to expect the first week since the oddsmakers usually get things pretty close. Most Pac-12 schools open at home.
Guess there’s no betting on Utah vs Weber
Colorado favored by 6.5 over CSU (in Denver, CSU’s second game)
Oregon State 38.5 point (!) underdog at Ohio State Wifebeaters
Arizona favored by 15.5 vs TDS
Arizona State favored by just 17 vs Texas-San Antonio
Stanford favored by 15 vs SDSU
Cal favored by 5.5 over UNC
USC favored by 27.5 vs UNLV
UCLA favored by 16.5 vs Cincinnati
Washington is 3 pt dog at Auburn
Washington St favored by 3.5 at Laramie with, or without, electricity
Oregon favored by 27.5 over Boring Green Straight University
Utah State is 25.5 dog at Mich State
This is meant in good fun, but I have to point out that you missed an obvious pun. Ohio State Blackeyes.
Haha, good one.
Domestic abuse is hilarious.
Weber State is ranked #8, if I saw that correctly.
Yes, the FCS Coaches ranked them 8th in Div I FCS. 2017 Big Sky Champs, finished 5th in 2017 FCS poll. No pushover. Sagarin’s final predictor from 2017 does provide an estimate… Utah by 16, including 2.4 pt home advantage.
Not sure you’ll find anyone to take that bet except some guy named Nephi behind the Maverick in Ogden.
Jay Hill on his way up to FBS soon?
They may be our toughest OOC matchup this year. I kind of like Weber to cover.
Give me:
Beavers +38.5
SDSU +15
BYU +15.5
Wash +3
Don’t think Cal can beat UNC by more than 5 at home?
I do, but I see the current line at 8.5 so I didn’t bother listing it.
Against the spread I’ll take:
* CSU
* Oregon State
* BYU
* Arizona State
* SDSU
* Cal
* USC
* UCLA
* Washington
* Oregon
* Michigan State
Still missing your football season tickets are you a level 1 or 2 Crimson club member. If yes there was a problem at the printer and they are being mailed out now. Save yourself a phone call to find out this info. U ticket office said it might take a week and a half from yesterday.
Providing less and less value as a crimson club minimum donor.
A week and a half?! So basically we might get them before game day? What a joke. At least mine weren’t stolen…
They should have a digital option.
Yes they can send them to you via flash
I think I’m level 3 and my rep told me yesterday to expect my tickets on Wednesday. Such a cluster.
Likewise. Level 3 here and I called yesterday because I have not received my tickets yet. She said that they were shipped late last week, but didn’t have a tracking number. Told me to call back on Thursday if I hadn’t received them and they would re-print and mail them again.
Not too impressed with their customer service. I guess they know that it would take a lot for me to not renew my tickets so they can get away with it.
Business as usual at the ticket office.
I get mine via flash and have had them for a month or so.

Fun memory from last year:
You sir are a board posting badass.
I’m just really good at copying and pasting.
Hey if you’re willing to do it I can delete my Twitter account and all the Trump s**tshow with it. That’s yuuuuge hahahahhahaha.
Thanks for posting! This is great.
Thank you sir. I feel like every time you post tweets, you should end with: “NOW YOU WILL KNEEEEL! KNEEEEEL!!!”
Everything comes to he who waits. And I have waited…so very long for someone to make a Masters of the Universe reference.
That one and Conan the Barbarian are the epitome of 80’s fantasy movies. Dolph and Arnold all the way.
First up: the bowl game.
Utah played fairly well in this one. I remember how tense it was for so much of the game, but without the in the moment emotions, I realized how we controlled this game pretty much from kick to whistle.
Some thoughts, Huntley played well, but not amazing. His decision making in the zone read in the red zone was really good, despite what some would say. TH needs fewer touches between the 20s. Wilson’s best asset was using the handoff to set up the keep. That said, dear sports writers, there was no TD by Huntley wherein he could have given it to Moss and walked in. Both would have had to shake a guy and the read was right since the DE crashed in you dolts.
WTF was going on with that punt. Terrible blocking.
Utah’s defense was lights out.
The punting problem was with the long snapper. I think Whitt has said that the best long snappers get the ball there at 0.6 secs. That 0.6-0.8 is the goal. And we were consistently around 1 sec last year.
We were terrible. That is why we brought in Maddie Golden. AAAAAaaaannnnndddd, I think there is more to the story when it comes to Gay’s sudden amazing kicking. Yes, Gay is amazing. Yes, he is the best kicker in the country. BUT, having a perfect snap makes everything so much easier. Sooooo much easier.
He was 2-2 from 60+ today.
Do you think any of Mitch wish’s punts were more than just long snapper issues throughout the season? Was he hurt last year? Maybe it was just me, but it felt like he was much less of a weapon last season.
I seem to recall thinking he had a bad wheel.
He seemed just fine until after the fake punt. From that point on he seemed to be struggling. I wonder if he was hurt on that run?
