The B12 lost Texas and Oklahoma and survived with lesser brands than the P12 would have been without USC. Give Yormark credit for outmaneuvering Kliakaff.

And I agree, the P12 has been mismanaged. But one of its biggest issues has been fan apathy. Cal, Stanford, and UCLA barely have fans at games. Its embarrassing. The B12 has survived because…[Read more]

So much sour grapes on here haha.

Too bad Tulane lost today. I was really hoping the B12 was going to get skunked with the committee.

Here’s a better article on it.

Kliavkaff was a dope and overestimated. Even if the Pac 12 lost USC, Oregon, Washington, and UCLA, if it would have secured a TV deal first, it could have collapsed the big 12 and then poached the best remaining teams from there. The survivors of the Pac 12 and a few big 12 schools would have been a better c…[Read more]

He definitely accelerated it. The conference may have always collapsed anyway, but he cut in line to secure a TV deal that sealed its fate.

I get that many of you hate the B12 but Yormark has actually been an awesome and very astute commissioner.

He is playing with house money with how he got the TV deal before the Pac 12 two years ago and basically made that conference collapse, allowing him to poach the four corner schools.

In regards to the holy war, us BYU fans would also love…[Read more]

This. We be STUPID not to bring him back if he wants to come back.

BUT, no NIL money. Or no extra money. AND bring in another starting caliber QB to compete for the job.

Haven’t laughed that hard in a while.

both Skattebo (RB) and Conyers (TE) played QB against Utah last year which is part of the reason they were so upset by the late Vincent TD

I fully expect that dead horse to befoul my Friday evening so it’s not like the issue is so far in the past as to no longer be relevant

Dallen Engemann is the backup. The emergency qb is a TE named Frankie

Thanks Tony. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. And, Go Utes!!

Grateful for my dear wife of 39 years.

Grateful we get to spend the day with our children and grandchildren.

Grateful for my father who attends Ute football games with me and who will be with me cheering on our hoops team Saturday afternoon.

Grateful for the beauty of our state, and that I live where I can look at the Wasatch Mountains to the…[Read more]

Happy Thanksgiving Ute fans!!! Beat UCF! Go UTES!!!

I hate the late starts. I am in eastern time zone and the games often finish after 230 am. It sucks to be awake and upset early in the morning! I guess I need to record them and watch in the morning.

Injuries are very common in college football. It is a violent game predicated on collisions. Here is an analysis of just how common injuries were in 2021- published just before the beginning of our reign of terror.

Back in the PAC12 with all teams in the Pacific/Mountain time zones, any team could host a game in the late slot (715ish on the West Coast, 815ish for the 4 corner states). So those late games could be spread around.

Now in the Big12, not really feasible for a game to start after 9PM in Texas or after 10PM in Florida/WVA/Ohio, so only teams out…[Read more]
