What would you change to get over the November blues?

I am curious to know what people think.

Temperature Saturday 85 degrees.

Shelley looks amazing Saturday.

Utes roll.

[GameForAnyFuss]

Stay on daylight savings time. Move Thanksgiving to Wednesday.

Or is that not what you meant? 

[SalUteopia]

LOL.. I meant what changes would you make to the football program to overcome the November hurdle we keep facing every year. But I guess that’s what you get when you’re ambiguous.

A few football wins would be nice.

JD Daniels signing…

[KiYi-Ute]

A win on Saturday would go a long way towards curing the blues. A gameplan tailored to Shelley’s strength. The team being visibly excited and rallying around Shelley. A return to defensive dominance. Daniels signing.

a breakout game by Hendrix and Jones Jr. and realization that we have 4 potential star newcomers.

I would change the Pac-12 conference schedule to 8 games and then schedule like the SEC does. A mid-season bye week coupled with a crappy G5 team in late Oct. and an FCS team in Nov. would probably solve our November issues real quick.

If they cut it to 8 why can’t they just rotate one division opponent a year that you don’t have to play. This way everyone gets access to California games every season. For instance Utah doesn’t have to play ASU. One less road game or something. 

Its like Tempe never happened then. lol.

I think if you go to 8 games you just cut out an oppenent from the opposite division. So this year would be Stanford, UW, & Oregon for Utah. Just cut out one of the “travel” partners. I do think going to 8 games is the answer, but the Cali schools all want to play each other each year which kind of screws things up. 

[BulgieUte]

So move utah and Colorado to the north, Stanford and Cal to the south. That gives us 5 division games 1 no. Cal 1 so. Cal and 1 Arizona game.

[Matthew Thomas Castleton]

Not going to happen because the North Schools don’t want to give up on their annual road games against the California schools. They use them to recruit players, and said reasons are why they came up with the division format they did in the first place.

Change my viewing habits. Reorder my priorities. Re-examine my life.

Sacrifice a small goat.

[EagleMountainUte]

Pac-12 refs I would change them. 

[Puget Ute]

Hire SEC refs to officiate per SEC interpretations of the rules.
