Warning – high expectations, long post, but doable. First and foremost, play smart football and never overlook your opponent.
We should have to size/athleticism/speed to win the 1 on 1 matchups so being vanilla should not be a concern. We can set the tone for the season with a clean game. Lots of good callouts by others on this post already.
1. 15 sacks!!! Honestly, I want qb pressure without blitzing. Could be hurries, sacks, ints – just get pressure and everything else takes care of itself. Bonus: right d end makes some plays.
2. Covey Electricity. One nice play to give him and us some confidence that those missions legs aren’t a thing. Bonus: special teams gets a kick or punt return.
3. Huntley decision making. A clean game, no ints or major mistakes. He’s learned what be needs to do in the off-season, let’s see the execution. Bonus: a nice deep ball on a go route.
4. Clean snaps. No reason to have bad snaps anymore, these guys have the experience. I think Tyler bailed us out of lot with his athleticism here last year and good snaps will reduce his “carries”. Bonus: direct snap to moss for a TD.
5. Red zone touchdowns. Increase the red zone TD ratio above last seasons average. If we can’t do that this season, we won’t have a shot to win the PAC 12. Bonus: Shelley or Tuttle get one.
6. Mitch Wish. Don’t know if he was hurt or what last year, but he wasn’t himself toward the end of the season. Let’s see a 60 yarder. Bonus: inside the 10 yard line.
7. Receiver Robin hood. Spread the wealth to more guys than the #1 – Carrington bailed us out a lot last year. Bonus: one of the freshman makes a big play.
8. Gay has a perfect game. Get him back on the field for practice as we’ll need him this year. Red zone is Huntley’s time, non red zone is all Gay’s. Bonus: 60+ yarder going into the half.
You can never glean too much from game one – let’s change that year. Camp was too good not to. Go Utes!
