Okay, so we all saw these mind boggling plays. Why do we say that Ludwig stepping down was “falling on the sword”. He was the one calling these drive killing plays we’ve all seen.

man we ran so many reverse during the Covey days. They could all ended up as negative yards but Covey was magical in turning negative yards into chunk play. We just don’t have great players to bail us out from bad calls anymore

I still wake up in a cold sweat screaming at Devaughn to throw the ball away.

This things make me mad years later.

“The lack of transparency is frustrating. It’s easy to sell something when you keep it hidden in a box, but once you reveal what’s inside, it becomes much harder to convince people to buy in. By restricting media and fans from seeing the reality of the team’s performance through practices or scrimmages, we’re left begging for crumbs from a paranoi…

Maybe BR is content with getting a paid for education, some team NIl cash, drive around in a free truck, enjoying the school and team/friends/college life. Not a bad gig. Crazy what college football has turned into.

IMO, over the years I don’t take everything coach Whitt says as gospel but more like with a grain of salt until the team passes the eyeball test, and even then, that can be hard until your star player or players go down at any given time during a season, then you will find out if the team goes from top 10 to mediocre. With that being said, I’ve…[Read more]

The worst was the reverse/QB pass at the start of the 2nd half in the Penn State Rose Bowl. Everything went sideways after that call.

Maybe it’s time we start the ultimate Quarterback experiment and give each QB on the roster one drive in the first half and then decide who’s the best for the second half.

Rose was also the guy who was QB1B coming out of spring ball in ’23. He had the inside track in fall camp should Rising not be able to go per all reports and OnlyU. Then Bishop crunches him during a scrimmage and ever since he doesn’t know the playbook.

I never realized that a kidney (liver?) surgery could have such an effect on playbook…[Read more]

That’s what was really mind boggling. We would be shredding a defense and then throw in that garbage and kill a drive.

I can’t remember which exact game (was a few years ago). But Utes were on a long drive (combination of passes and successful runs) and were down at about the five yard line right in front of us in section 33. They run a reverse and lose a lot of yards and I couldn’t help but cry out “A REVERSE!?!?!?”

You are spot on! Whitt put all his eggs in one basket (Rising) and when that failed, he failed miserably as it manifested itself for all world to see and turned very ugly for him and the program! I wouldn’t have expected this from Whittingham having 20 years of head coach experience and how he handled it…VERY POORLY. Many didn’t like what I…[Read more]

Ludwig always did stuff like that and they weren’t even huge risk huge reward plays. They were huge risk low reward. So many drives killed by running some cute stuff randomly that wasn’t even setup properly in earlier plays.

I’m not sure if i’m right, but wasn’t Rose picked to be the starter, until Cam came back, before injuring his kidney?

Gawd. That trick play in the TCU game broke that drive and may have been directly responsible for losing that game.

Maybe he is a game time decision each week. Seriously either he isn’t good enough to play or Wilson just stands out at practice. Wilson emerged as the clear #2 in fall camp. It’s hard to believe he hasn’t as least got a series or two the last two years.

Too close to New Orleans…
