It would have been over on Saturday night but for TDS fans like Ted Lasso and Matt parachuting in here every couple of hours to continually stir the pot. Personally, I’ve never been to or posted on a BYU board but they feel it’s OK to come to hostile territory and start arguments. Simple as that…Many people here have been telling them…[Read more]

Sad if this is Whitt’s last rivalry game. Lavell Edwards enjoyed a thrilling last minute win over Utah in his very last game. Some Utah fans may not have fond memories of that one, but I thought it was a great exciting game and it was a fitting end to a long storied career. A few years Later, Ron McBride enjoyed a rivalry win on his last game…[Read more]

Well I’ve got great news about that bowl game for you

Man, I hope LK gets some pass action the next three weeks. I always look to see if he’s out there. Fan favorite. The phantom holding call on him was complete BS and was as impactful as ZV holding gate.

Hopefully IW is good to go at QB. It’s officially his team if he wants it if the BR rumors are true. No more BS about who’s playing QB, time to…[Read more]

Good. Glad we finally have a direct line of communication.

Lifewise, yes. But they had to sub Shelley, and then Lisk, in when they wanted to run RPO in 2019. That should have been the clearest indicator necessary that Ludwig was going to tip off his play calls based on personnel but it’s not really germane to this thread.

getting to the rose bowl and losing? definitely a bad deal.

Its probably two separate combined into one. Past players have complained about Under Armor cleats and there is a reason (maybe not this one) most teams that were with UA have left them. Its also more common to have knee / foot issues playing on artificial turf. You will see players in MLS sit out games in Seattle because of the turf.

I believe the 5 yard rule you are referring is only in the NFL

Agreed but you look at other programs in Utah’s realm and it doesn’t seem as bad anywhere else.

He still left relatively healthy is all I am saying.

Well, the Devil went down to Utah
He was lookin’ for a soul to steal
He was in a bind ’cause he was way behind
And he was willing to make a deal
When he came across this old man
Watching some film tape and getting hot
And the Devil jumped up on a hickory stump
And said “Man, let me tell you what”

Let’s not forget that this is football and it’s violent and players are bigger, stronger, and faster than they have ever been.

Why are we beating a dead horse. The game is over and BYU won. We had our chances and didn’t take advantage. BYU finds ways to win and we find ways to lose. BYU fans trying to justify the win and Utah fans trying to justify the loss. I hope this game lights a fire under our program and motivates us for next year.

I don’t understand, what does Under Armor have to do with what kind of turf we have? Or are those two separate thoughts combined into one short comment?

Really good analysis

Calls in the secondary are some of the trickiest (and often most controversial) ones in football. Sometimes have a tightly officiated game where several PI and defensive holding are made each way, sometimes few or no such calls are made in the entire game.

We had one PI call our way (for about 2-3 yards) early in the game then none I remember on…[Read more]

Lady, I didn’t see that before you pointed it out. Sadly refs don’t call facemask on the offense. Was the facemask the reason the hold occurred? Very likely. So did the WR’s facemask play into the hold, I’d say yes. The frustration is in this moment of the game, it is within 5 yards, the WR pushes off, grabs the facemask and Vaughn got called for…[Read more]
