Boos from the home crowd 7 minutes into the game p**sed me off

I wasn’t there, so didn’t boo, but given the fact that we were coming off of two consecutive games where the team’s performance was completely inept and we picked up right where we had left off against Oregon, it is completely understandable that the fans would boo.

I was there, I didnt boo, but I complained plenty in that first quarter.  It was just a repeat of the two games we had witnessed before this one.  No one on offense knew where to be or what the play was.  Two timeouts within the first few minutes of the game because Taylor couldnt get a play call in.  Several ineligible players downfield, no pass blocking etc etc etc.  The fans werent booing just because the team just started to struggle.  They were beat up two games in a row and starting off this game by not showing any improvement.  I was pretty close to booing, but after that recovered muffed punt everything changed for the team.  The O started playing without penalties and D started to play gap sound.  

I was at the game. People in front and behind me were booing during the first quarter. One guy was really getting after it, specifically going after Huntley. I eventually had enough and said “That’s your quarterback! Sit down!”. He replied by flipping me off and telling me I didn’t know what I was talking about.

I understand the frustration, but booing doesn’t really sit well with me at college sporting events. These are 18-21 year old kids out there. I suppose you can make the argument that you’re booing the professionals, i.e. the coaches, but it seems to me that the players feel it more than the coaching staff does. 

You paid for the ticket, I suppose you’re entitled to your right to boo if you don’t like the product on the field. But it’s a lot easier to sit in your chair and boo than it is to do what these athletes do.

I simply don’t understand our fans sometimes. During the first quarter, right behind me some guy and his buddy were screaming “throw the ball downfield! We need chunk plays!” By the third quarter when Utah was doing 75-yard drives in 1 or 3 plays, the same guys were complaining that we were scoring too fast and we need long, sustained drives. SMH.

Reminds me of this:

I guess as a paying customer your not allowed to voice displeasure. Someone feelings will get hurt

Maybe they were booing the coaches, the play calling etc.

I didn’t boo (I never do).  I might yell at the stupid officials, but not the players or coaches.  I was beginning to doubt the football mentality of some of our players, however.  Still way too many penalties on the line.  Part of that is learning the RPO system, but they should have a clue by now how to not get called for being illegally downfield.

Last season after the bad loss to Cal the boos came out against Arizona after something like 8 consecutive false starts to go from a big play to get inside the redzone, to 3rd and 40. 

I sat next to Dimicks family and they were vocal and p**sed. Lady in front of us started grabbing her stuff and was getting ready to leave.

Mitch then dropped a dime inside the 5 and after the refs f’d up a holding safety call Tasini broke threw and destroyed the QB for the real safety. Utah went on to outscore Arizona  31-9.

Afterward, comments came from the players that the boos were more of a wake up call that the team wasn’t playing right.

I heard the boos against UCLA and if I was there I would have bood the performance as well. The timeouts, and consecutive penalties was pathetic.

Sometimes it can be good. The players and coaches might be willing to do a little more out of their comfort zone or at least loosen up. “If they’re mad and I’m mad, then I won’t give a damn” mentality would probably help out this team at times. Play mad, play loose. Isn’t that the “edge” Whitt was talking about last week?

I mean, I was there. The stadium was antsy well before kickoff. I wasn’t surprised.

I don’t boo college teams, ever.  However, in my section W13 it was more moaning and just pure disgust at the effort.  The NEZ booed a ton though.  Enough for the whole stadium.

I booed. I was booing the offensive coaching staff for its late substitutions and lack of focus from the players.
We consistently substitute late in the play clock and have had to call time-out on numerous occasions this year. I believe that should have been addressed and cleaned up by now. I also dislike that we sub out after every play. How do you get a rhythm going is you are subbing out every down? Just my $0.02.
