Yeah, I don’t really count the Baylor game as one of those because they had a big lead during the entire contest that they frittered away. They remind me of one of those teams that jumps off to a great start of the season, lose once, and then proceed to lose many more times before the end of the season. There’s absolutely nothing that says to me…[Read more]

Even Baylor was super close.

Florida St is a cautionary tale of what happens when people give up.

It’s not only that they’re 1-6, but they’re a bad 1-6. They’ve looked like trash in almost every one of their games. FSU picked a horrible time to give Mike Norvell a massive EIGHT YEAR extension at ~$10M per season during this offseason. That makes for an eye-watering buyout.

USC and Oklahoma are the new Nebraskas. They better start overpaying recruits but even that might not help them.

they have had the luckiest streaks. they should honestly have 2 if not 3 losses.

I can’t see the TDS going undefeated. They’ve already had two very near misses (SMU and OSU) and I can’t imagine that they have any more Mulligans left. Plus, being undefeated, they’re going every team’s best shot from here on in.

lot’s of losses to go around. Iowa State still plays Texas Tech and K State. Lose one other + Utah, Utah holds the tie-breaker. parochial school has easiest remaining schedule but stub their toes + lose Utah, Utah holds the tie-breaker. No one in the conference is unbeatable.

There are plenty of scenarios where Utah makes the CCG since the…[Read more]

I’m apathetic. More interested in hoping Texas smashes Georgia. After coming into the year with such high expectations and hopes there’s nothing left.

Backer we haven’t played a complete game yet. Maybe we get on track tonight. Certainly can’t say back on track.

we’re already eliminated. all we can do is ruin it for tspp and iowa st.

I am also feeling optimistic for the first time since the Baylor game. Things feel a bit settled. We will get it done today. Go Utes!!!

Yes Champ since Covey has been gone kickoff and punt returns have been non existent. We haven’t had that ball hawk safety for a few years picking off passes. Blitzing the QB and getting strip sacks or deflections.

The exact thing BYU is doing to be 6-0. Defense is solid then gives up a big play. Offense has been predictable and conservative w…[Read more]

It’s also why trying to project improvement across the board for your own team while assuming that everyone else will repeat the previous year is a fool’s errand. No one really knows who is going to improve or regress until the games are actually played.

They So Poo Poo U won 5 games last year and ended season on a 5 game losing streak. Bring back the exact same team and are on the cusp of being top 10. It’s why college football is sacred to America. Anything can happen.

Went there this morning. I’m absolutely cracked out now. It was awesome. The mint cookies are amazing.

Getting Reid back on defense (per coach Mac) giving up 200 + rushing against ASU and big plays vs AU. Defense comes to play tonight. We should move the ball on offense TCU defense is not great. We need a big win 2-3 score victory. Go Utes!!

The other night I went through College Football Reference to see if a notion that I had was true. I’d mentioned on another thread that the ST had been regressing since Jay Hill stopped being in charge of it. Then I though to myself, it also seems like turnovers have been more infrequent since around the same time which would also be when Sitake…[Read more]

I’m doing a two for one. Going to see the UHC vs Bruins and immediately going to RES to catch the remainder of the TCU game. I should get there no later than halftime. Hopefully it will be a good game.

You are what your record says you are. I never thought I’d see the day where I’d say that Sitake has done a better coaching job than Whitt.
