Ive seen a few models that have Florida in the 20-30 range. On the road in that environment, wont be an easy game. Bama only came away with a 2 point victory in the swamp last year. 

That was Florida’s only loss at Ben Hill last season.

OnlyU, I don’t think you have ever been wrong.  So if you post it – I am going to drink the koolaid. 🙂

Thanks OnlyU also appreciate the insight .

Starting O line is mostly settled now but the 3 pushing for time made it a very, very difficult decision. Quality depth and size have us 8 deep there and Harding said this is the best group he’s worked with top to bottom. Lots of playable depth at DE but I think the end opposite Van will be situational. Have some specialty guys there so down and distance will dictate who’s on the field. Been a fairly clean camp by all accounts relative to staying healthy. Parks has been a bright spot and expect him some in the Covey role.

Won’t comment on injuries this early…Agree or disagree I’m taking the high road until the season. The message about letting info out has been loud and clear this year, Whit knows what’s at stake and he’s taken it a step further than usual. Huge game in a few weeks so don’t blame him. Diabate is an incredible athlete and an NFL talent period. I expect great things from him this season. Depth at LB albeit young after the first 2. CB’s look excellent and with Florida’s WR’s banged up/inexperienced I won’t be surprised to see 3 LB’s on the field together and make Richardson beat us with his arm.

Won’t be surprised to see the Gators try to control the ball and run clock to keep it away from our offense. Don’t think they can score explosively consistently outside of Richardson making something out of nothing. So running behind a big O-line has to be what they’ll try and do early especially with zero depth behind Richardson with Miller going down. Might not be able to risk him which helps us provided we can get off the field.

True depth everywhere this year except at QB IMO…talent but no experience behind Cam. I definitely lean to JaQuindon as the 2 but that changes week to week and always has depending on how they practice.

Anxious to see who wins the 2nd safety role…really close IMO but the safety room is in great shape.

No surprises at RB. 4-5 guys gonna play. Parks has had a better camp this year which is good news. Lightbulb coming on but some dudes ahead of him.

Feel way better about our punting situation this year.

Talent and experience are there…just have to get off on the right foot.

Plenty of proven guys held out for precautionary reasons yesterday.

Correct me if I am wrong, but, as far as I can tell, SLC’s only Grateful Dead broadcast is the pre-recorded KPFA GDHOUR on KRCL Sunday evenings.

Backup QB? Injuries?

Any insight would be greatly appreciated

I will post just one more thing in this thread.

Just this week, many posters on the CB attacked Covey, which I do not understand.  In fairness, there were some who admitted liking Covey (one may have been you).  I just don’t get what there is to dislike about Covey.  The only thing is that he played for the enemy.  There are many former Cougars who I like. i.e., Steve Young, Taysom Hill, Andy Reid, Sitake, etc.  These are good men who I admire as people.  It doesn’t matter where they played football.  I know that I am preaching to the choir when responding to you.  You seem to be a level-headed guy who I would probably be friends with outside of sports boards.  The point is that I would expect more from BYU fans than to just hate someone because they once played at Utah.  That seems to go against what I have been taught as a member of that same church.  Oh well.

Thanks for coming on here.  It has been fun to banter with you.

The overall series is 63-35-4 for Utah.  The past three decades is 19-11 for Utah.  LaVell was 22-7 vs. Utah.  Beyond that incredible stint, BYU collectively has only beat Utah 13 times since 1896!  13!  Some equate all of Utah’s success to having a LaVell-like coach in Kyle but. while that might be somewhat true, I highly doubt Utah, no matter where it ends up post Kyle, will have the football mediocrity that BYU has enjoyed before and since LaVell.

That’s another myth.  We did not pass you up with our extra resources.  It’s actually the other way around.  Back in the 70s and 80s, ybU-p committed to more resources for their football program, and wound up passing us up.  But that ended during the McBride years, when by the time he was playing with his recruits (c. 1993), Utah had gone 5-3 (.625) vs ybU-p.  By the time Urban Meyer arrived, Utah had passed ybU-p back up again.  We’d been producing better teams, better recruiting classes, and more NFL players several years before joining the Pac-12.  The Pac-12 only widened the preexisting gap.

“If you’re being honest with yourselves, we were more deserving than Colorado and would have brought a lot more to the table…We all know it’s our religious affiliation that kept us out…”

Actually, if YOU were being honest with YOURself, you’d admit that you were NOT “more deserving than Colorado“.  And that’s why you didn’t even TRY to defend that outrageous claim.

CU is an AAU school — the highest classification of Tier-1 Research institutions.  ybU-p isn’t even Tier-1.  Academic edge:  Colorado

CU owns the more recent national championship, won a Big XII championship, played in the Fiesta Bowl, and won 4 North division titles.  ybU-p never even qualified for ONE BCS bowl.  Athletic edge:  Colorado

CU brings the Denver market.  ybU-p…..does not.  Media edge:  Colorado

CU had never been censured by the AAUP for assaults on “free speech” and “academic freedom”.  ybU-p had been censured for those offenses for the past quarter century.  Culture edge:  Colorado

So enough with that bogus “discrimination” claim.  If the Pac-12 hated the LDS church, Utah wouldn’t have been invited either.  We are the 2nd-most LDS school in the FBS ya know.  “Religion” is just an “excuse” you all had invented to mask the humiliation and indignation of your failures, because you’re all too arrogant to admit that you simply didn’t measure up, whereas your hated rival did.  So it’s not us who’s not “being honest with ourselves“.  It’s YOU guys.  Just listen to yourself…

“When we were invited to join the B12…we knew it was a watered down conference…BYU fans have been sour about not joining that conference along with you…Most rational BYU fans know in their hearts that getting Utah over to the B12 would be the best thing for longterm stability.”

ybU-p has long been butt-hurt over failing to receive an invitation to the “Conference of Champions”.  I remember all throughout the late-80s, 1990s, and early aughts, hearing the constant barrage of arrogant zoobies claiming to have grown too big for the WAC/MWC, and had subsequently been in secret negotiations with the Pac-10 for admission.  Despite NONE of that being true, that was ybU-p trying to “big time” Utah.  I also recall reading during the run-up to Utah’s eventual invitation, all the comments being posted on the SLTrib and DNews that the only way Utah will get the invite, is if ybU-p lets us ride in on their coattails.  If you’re so sour about us “big timing” you, know this:  you all had brought it on yourselves with your [bogus] arrogant attempts at doing that to us.

I would also point out that if the tdS knows that they’ll be joining a “watered down conference“, why do they still claim the Big XII — your 2nd choice for P5 leagues — is better than the Pac-12?  And if “most rational fans know that Utah adds value to the Big XII“, why all the insistences that we’ll wind up back in the MWC?

Answer:  Because they can’t be honest with either their fellow man, nor even themselves.  So don’t talk to us about “being honest with ourselves“, since we’re really the only party that HAD been.  Hypocrisy is so ybU.

P.S.:  There are NOT “nice healthy dialogue(s)” on cougarboard.  You wouldn’t know this because you’re a zoob, but your moderators over there censor the bejeebers out of us.  I personally got “banned for life” over leaving multiple “unpopular” posts.  Every time zoob nation started gushing over their latest recruit commitment, I kept posting their Rivals link, showing that they only had 2-stars.  You can’t have healthy dialogue when your moderators get to decide what facts will be allowed, and what they’d like to bury.  We don’t do that over here.  Edge:  Tony/UteHub
