There are some terminally online people who actually replaced the images of their abusive father (texas and oklahoma) with us. But generally people don’t actually care that much. The anti Utah sentiment with subside because it’s not really based on reality

I’m less concerned with the picks, even though I’d like more, than I am the fumbles. Utah has recovered two of 11 this year which puts them at minus 3.5 on the luck meter. Bounces going your way is usually a big indicator in the type of season your team is having.

I keep coming back to the Retzlaff fumble around his own 10 that they were able…[Read more]

This is a very social media driven take, my friend. Deep breaths. Again, so much hyperbole. Stay away from facebook and twitter fan pages. Utah football doesn’t fall off the map because of this season. It happens to even blue bloods. Years like this. JFC I didn’t realize our fanbase was so dramatic.

@stbone: looks like your clip didn’t get attached in your posting, thanks.

A lot to unpack here. One, Oklahoma St isn’t Texas roots. The two hardly ever played until the Big 12 was formed. Oregon State has had blips of success just as any program has small windows of success. I also remember that Fiesta Bowl against ND. There’s a reason the Beavers were left out, and it’s entirely the fault of their doing. Oklahoma St, w…[Read more]

Grabbing any part of the helmet, including the chinstrap is a face masking penalty. A copy of the rule is below:

“No player shall grasp and then twist, turn or pull the face mask, chin strap or any helmet opening of an opponent. It is not a foul if the face mask, chin strap or helmet opening is not grasped and then twisted, turned or pulled. When…[Read more]

It upset me and many others so it’s not ok. Cheering for your team and being excited to win are normal and expected. Having someone yelling BYU chant in your ear is not ok. It happened on the stairs when everyone was leaving. Nobody was moving because of the crowd. I’d be fine if they did it in their seats or in the BYU section.

Did you even have cognition when Cincinnati swept the Yankees in the 1976 World Series? I saw every one of those games and only one was really close.

Seems fine to me as well. That’s just nature of the rivalry where people know what will annoy the other fans without stepping over a line.

I want Harlan fired for reasons other than what happened Saturday, so put me in that camp 😂

You know, you point out something that’s really, really interesting…and that is that if the Ivy Leagues wanted to dip their toes in the water and really run the College Football show, there’s absolutely nothing that anyone could do about it. Can you imagine the draw of million-dollar contracts for each player (pocket lint to the Ivies),…[Read more]

I agree with you. I’m looking at big 12 pages along with TDS and other XII school pages and they all collectively hate our guts and explicitly want us to leave. I worry this mess will affect our program perception beyond repair. That leads to my biggest concern: do we recover from this seasons debacle and the holy war post game embarrassment? It s…[Read more]

Seems fine to me.

’twas a thing of beauty.

@Rick – see this posting:
Reply To: It was an obvious hold

Well if you look at the replay, there are 2 angles that you can see where Glasker’s hands are on Rose. In both angles, he was close to the helmet, but he was not grabbing the face mask at all. I get why the ref called it, it looked like a face mask with the way his head turned, but it was not one. The bad call led to a touchdown for Utah. I w…[Read more]

Yeap, but the good thing is that you can flip the script from one season to the next. Now more than ever…

I can’t get past the ball placement on that throw. Right at the sideline but still in bounds so Kuithe didn’t have to make a jumping or tip-toe catch. Even if the DB hadn’t stumbled, I don’t think he could have gotten to the ball to knock it away. Just a perfect dime.

Our DB’s missing pick 6s has now cost us two games (Houston being the other). We seem to be afraid to make big plays.
