Utes at #14 in the preseason AP

[NarfUte]

I think this is the highest we’ve ever been ranked in the preseason

(04 we were #20, 09 we were #19)

It is. We’ve only been ranked by the AP in the pre-season twice before: 2004 (20th) and 2009 (19th).

2004:
Started ranked #20 and finished 12-0 at #4

2009:
Started ranked #19 and finished 10-3 at #18

So far in Utah history the preseason hype has worked out alright for us.

Yea… let’s just play ball. This teams hasn’t proven anything yet

[salty-ute]

Just pointing out the fact that the media has only ranked Utah in years where they have ended up doing well.

Let’s stop telling other fans how to be fans.  Enjoy the hype!  What good does it do to be negative or indifferent about it?

[Tednab]

If you’re referring to my comment , I wasn’t telling anyone how to act, Nor was it intended to be a slight .. nor was anything I said negative ; but plain facts … they still have to go prove it on the field.

Obviously. Did you think people in the forum didn’t realize they still needed to play the games? What was the point of your comment if not to tell other fans to pump the brakes on the hype?

But, hey..they have players “mic’d” up for practice so they’re big time.
