      Herbstreit said he expected the crowd to be close to 50-50 because OSU travels well.  Desmond said there is no way that the attendance will be 50-50, maybe like 70-30.

      I actually like Herbstreit and I think he has been fair to the Utes over the years, but on this subject – he needs to pull his head out of the sand.  In the end, Utah winning the attendance battle is not a big deal, but c’mon Herbie …

      Go Utes!!!

      Give Herbie a little slack. He did the Georgia-Michigan day last night. He hasn’t been out and about to see the sea of Utah fans that have taken over Pasadena.

      ESPN analytics expert projects that 78% of the fans at the Rose Bowl will be Utah fans.  If that turns out to be true – that’s stunning!!!

      I don’t know how we will do on the field today.  But, I am very impressed with my fellow Utes – way to show up and support our team.  If the analytics are correct, this will be the most Ute fans ever to attend a sporting event.

        The largest crowd in history to ever view a team from Utah.

          What about the Big House – seats 106,000

          If you mean TV audience – you sir are correct!

      Herbstreets’s boy is a freshman on the OSU team, so he may be a bit biased, for a legit reason. Go Utes!!

        Yes, he mentioned how big a deal it was going to be to see his son run into the Rose Bowl.  He likely will not play unless the game is a blowout.  He is a walk-on.

          Here’s hopin’ that Herbstreit’s kid gets to play– once the utes are up 65 to 42 in the final minutes.

      Well it might be 50/50 if OSU fans…

      Don’t eat breakfast

      Don’t attend the parade

      and don’t tailgate

      Yesterday they sold out of a ton of Utah apparel at the merch store. And we bought the last two white Rose Bowl hats with both teams logo.

      Mind you I did see several OSU fans at house close to the parade. But from what I’ve seen it may be north of 80% Utes

        In the fan area right now outside the stadium – I’d say it’s conservative 90% Ute fans.

        Go UTES!!!

      My response…

       

      Desmond’s right.

      Herbstreit tries so hard not to be a homer, but he continues to fail.

       

      NB: I dislike KH immensely.
