Just me but BSPN is the last place I look for anything concerning Utah’s program.
I am all for being optimistic and more power to you. But optimism can approach delusion easily. For my own sanity and enjoyment I am not hyping the QB position at all.
I think the situation is far from 13th. If Utah actually has a QB room performing at 13 I…[Read more]

….Guessing you didn’t read the article that was written by people who get paid to analyse this
The only short-term concern is [Rising’s] health, especially after Utah lost veteran backup and 2023 starter Bryson Barnes to the transfer portal, along with Mack Howard and former ESPN top-100 recruit Nate Johnson.

If an injured freshmen . is pushing Rose for QB2, than Utah has a QB problem, as simple as that.

CR WILL NOT MAKE IT THROUGH THE WHOLE SEASON, OPONENTS WILL BE TARGETTING THAT KNEE. AFTER THAT YOU HAVE ROSE WHO IS NOT THAT IMPRSSIVE, AND WILSON NEEDS SURGERY. WHO ELSE WE GOT? NOTHING!

Yeah, I mean ESPN ranked Utah as having the 14th best QB situation in college football. https://www.espn.com/college-football/insider/story/_/id/39670797/college-football-future-power-rankings-quarterbacks
14th! That means there are (if my math is correct) 13 teams with better QB situations than us. What trash, can’t believe we’d fail so…[Read more]

What is NM?

Whitt did not say the injuries were serious. In fact, he implied that it was not a big deal. But, you know Whitt, he never lets the fans know what the injury status of a player is unless it is season-ending.
Caliman replied to the topic Update on week two of Spring ball in the forum Football 1 day, 10 hours ago
The reality is that Rose doesn’t look good at all, and Wilson is on the verge of a major knee surgery. If Utah can’t go out and bring in an experienced healthy QB from the portal, it’s gonna be a long 2024 season. Not looking great RN in the QB room.
ProudUte replied to the topic Nm in the forum Football 1 day, 10 hours ago
I read about him in a practice update from last week. He said that he felt great and was excited to be back.
I have no clue if anything happened to him in practice. Whitt didn’t say anything in his post practice interview other than there were four LBs who were currently injured.
ProudUte started the topic Coach Whitt post practice interview in the forum Football 1 day, 11 hours ago
He said some interesting things. It sounds like he has his cornerbacks picked
Today was the best practice so far
A lot of playmakers out there
Johnson is a great addition to our team and solidifies the secondary
ZV, Johnson, and Snowden are currently starters.
Tao Johnson will be a starting safety. The other safety is yet to be determined.…[Read more]
AlohaUte replied to the topic Reddit discusses (based on The Athletic) which Big12 team could win an NC first in the forum Football 1 day, 13 hours ago
Remember, this is essentially asking which Big12 team has the best shot, not who is likely to even do it as I don’t think any B12 team will win ever with the way the game is moving.
Anyway, Utah definitely has the best shot or at least is a top-3 option. And despite what I said above, I do remind myself that in the 22-23 season, TCU made the…[Read more]
Virginia Ute replied to the topic Reddit discusses (based on The Athletic) which Big12 team could win an NC first in the forum Football 1 day, 13 hours ago
I think it’s a long shot for Utah, but not impossible. The stars have to align. The only way I see it happening is to follow the Michigan model of keeping kids in the program for 3-4 years that could otherwise go to the NFL. Utah has to get some luck recruiting, keep developing NFL talent, and then keep everyone around so that they can catch…[Read more]

I am only speaking for myself here but my lack of in person support is really a combination of things. First, all of the games are on TV and when it is 15 degrees outside and snowing, I am not a fan of going out to watch something I can see at home. Second, I hate watching bad basketball. No sport pisses me off more than basketball when it is…[Read more]

Most of the teams that are often in the discussion for the national championship and the playoff are teams that frequently finish with only 1 or 2 losses, at the most. Then they break through once in a while with undefeated or 1 loss years where they make the championship.
Utah seems to be a 3 to 4 loss regular season team. Since joining the P5,…[Read more]

I agree, but even the best teams have a tough time and need a lot of things to fall their way. The NIL situation is the wild west right now, but even with the income gap between the B1G and SEC to the B12, they can’t pay EVERYONE. Nobody is going to be paying 3 TE’s 7 figures each, so kids that aren’t cracking the rotation right away are going to…[Read more]

Obviously it’s going to be tough.
The confluence of perfect timing of talent, experience, and depth on the team, coupled with extreme luck of the bounce of the ball, lack of injuries, probably help from other teams making your path easier. I just can’t fathom a season where Utah is the last team standing.
It’s not impossible, but it’s so hard…[Read more]

Many Utah mentions by Reddit users. One out of the 3 podcast hosts also chose Utah.
Personally, I think it’s a long shot and virtually impossible, especially in the NIL era.
What are your thoughts?

My guess is that there weren’t as many tickets sold as it looked like because season tickets holders had first dibs on their tickets until noon yesterday. What that does tell us is that there are a lot of season ticket holders that aren’t showing up.
