Ticketmaster tickets are too expensive currently. They seem to be high on their team. If we are lucky, UofA will beat them well enough to make several hundred not want to go and give us better opportunities. Go UofA.

I favor the northwest corner where the visiting team comes and goes.

^^This^^

I have not transferred my ticket my son’s account, but I assume and expect that the wallet does not require a connection and is stored on the phone. I already know connectivity at the stadium on game days is iffy.

In addition,
I am thinking Jackson is too good to go missing, may not be talked about until he walks out on to the field. Bam might be a better replacement than folks think. Any of the 4 RBs can jump up and surprise. We have a lot of TEs but at some point Yassmin will get noticed. Kaufusi will fill in well at DT and his uncommon height will be…[Read more]

I am hoping for Jackson in QBwildcat.

We have seen that thought before that the Y dominated the MWC. I seem to remember that up until Utah left, Utah, TCU, and the Y each had an equal number of championships and CSU had 1 fewer. It was pretty much 4 teams equally sharing the titles. The Y was dominate before McBride came in in the early 90s, they just need to update thoughts with…[Read more]

I remember the same about Garett Bolles. Struggled at first with quick DEs but he had the physical gifts. Clearly, Bam is taking much longer but it may be possible because we have seen it before. My hope is it is for real and is on a roll by the time we play WSU. Just wait and see, it is as simple as maybe, maybe not.

Unless ND joins the Big 12 (not going to happen) they will become one of the best mid majors. In that role the still have almost any G5 team that they can draw in. The Y will have a lot of competition to get in. If the Y did get in that could still be good for us in that they will become focused on their own conference championship, need…[Read more]

I noted that March is not the punter anymore, hopefully an upgrade. Full back? I wonder how many plays will use a FB? I hope we will soon wonder why the wildcat QB is not on the depth chart. I wish we published the special teams. I am especially interested in the punt cover and kickoff cover teams because that is a lot of insight about who is…[Read more]

One odd favorite game was when a U cheerleader was running thru the north end zone in Provo after a U touchdown with a big flag. A Y fan came out of the stands to tackle him. When the fan would not let up the cheerleader rolled over on him and started to pound him into the turf. So funny to see the cop in the corner drop a drink to go out and…[Read more]

One interesting part of that is with Kump nicked up I think we see Bam and I think he will do alright. Laumea and Moala I expect will pass the test. If Daniels is solid we could be good. May not know much at all until after the game with the Y.

For background, my family is half Y fans and half U fans. I also grew up in Provo going to Y games with friends since about 7 or 8 years old entering thru the knothole gang for 25 cents without adults. Tickets were easy to come by. Myself I graduated from the U in the 70s and attended every football game. In about ’81 when they built their new…[Read more]

It would seem we will get a chance to see Bam.

What you saw last year with Rising is not much of a hint because the OL has so little time together. We need everything working to stay with USC. COVID did not let us get ready for the game.

Rising will get time in the first games but I think we start with Brewer. Whitt is focused on the here and now, I think Brewer gives us the best start but…[Read more]

In addition I think Vele, McKinney, Daniels and Bam were missed, not top 10 but in the 60. Redding is close to top 10. Howard, if he stays healthy will end near the top. Jackson will not be QB1 but if he plays something like TE/H back he would be in the 60. Laumea, Bernard and Fillinger/Carlton were missed. Last, everyone usually forgets…[Read more]

^^This^^ It is odd because I know Whitt depends on execution much much more than surprise. If they considered the whole of their product, they should consider customer interest in the runup to the season as part of the product.

I think the answer is in math. Are there 2 schools to add to the conference that will cause the split for existing schools to increase? How much of a conference’s TV value is driven from counting noses in markets or is driven from success and great product? Is our current situation due to lack of more schools and lack of population in our…[Read more]

Sure, could be the only chance to see the luxury suites and team rooms.
