2008 National Champ replied to the topic Ike Wilson in the forum Football 8 months ago
I’ve been waiting all season for Wilson’s mom to check in. Now that I know how she feels, I can completely ignore everything bad that happened in that game.
I’ve gotten pretty tired of the “something was wrong with the QB but we decided to play him anyway” meme this season has turned into.

2008 National Champ replied to the topic Utah is #1 in the forum Football 8 months ago
I’m of the belief that with Rose, Barnes & Johnson, the staff thought they could get through 2023 without Rising if necessary. And from the small sample size of Rose this year, I can see that logic even if I still feel like bringing in a solid QB like Graham Mertz would have been a nice insurance policy. Let’s not forget that Barnes & Johnson…[Read more]

2023 exactly the same. 2024, probably not much different. Are we really convinced that if Rising was not going to be available this year that Whitt / Ludwig would have found a transfer QB not only ready to start on day 1 but that the offense would be tailored to the new QB’s skill set? Because Jake Bentley and Charlie Brewer would beg to differ.

that’s more than a TD per quarter. when will this offensive football madness stop?

I don’t wish bad on the BYU football team. They are irrelevant to me unless they are playing Utah in any given week.
Now their followers who feel the need to attach some overarching ideal to the outcome of a game.,,

Finally the recognition this team truly deserves: Utah leads Misery Index after Week 12
The main excuse for Utah’s problems, especially on offense, has been the absence of quarterback Cameron Rising, who suffered a hand injury in Week 2 and played just one game since before another season-ending injury. But here’s the problem with that. Rising h…[Read more]

2008 National Champ replied to the topic Down Goes the TDS in the forum Football 8 months ago
That game will come down to how tightly Colorado’s OLine is called. It bumpuzzles me how they can have 3 holding calls on one drive in the first half and then not another for the rest of the game. Must be great coaching.
Or how Hunter was able to commit OPI in front of the side judge and almost come up with a 40 yard reception. Because, as we…[Read more]

can’t be true. Plenty of people came onto the board after last Saturday for the express purpose of telling us that we were lucky to be allowed to play such incredible competition every week. surely they couldn’t all be wrong.,,

Unless Whitt and unnamed OC decide Huard counts as the transfer QB and Rising makes 5 as the designated starter

In honor of the joke “I didn’t have that one on my bingo card”, it seems like we should be able to come up with 25 things that have happened so far this season which no one would have deemed possible in August. Here’s a handful off the top of my head:
1. Utah will be in a dogfight with Oklahoma State for the worst record in the conference
2.…[Read more] -

I just don’t know how you admit that when you still have games to figure out how to win.

2008 National Champ replied to the topic Ike Wilson in the forum Football 8 months, 1 week ago
The problem is the immediate comparison with Rose who is much more polished and has as good or better arm. And wondering what it was people were seeing in practice that showed different than what has been obvious in game play.
On Rose’s picks, I can make a case that the receiver was at fault. Most of Wilson’s were entirely on him. Rose was…[Read more]

2008 National Champ replied to the topic @TheMiamiUte called this in the forum Football 8 months, 1 week ago
We all react based on our expectations being met. People who said 9 wins was the floor probably take this season harder than I am. I’ve played enough sports in my life to know that any outcome can happen and that losing is just as contagious as winning. The trap I won’t fall into though is believing that this season is an anomaly and we should…[Read more]

wanna bet? 11-30-24 is the over/under for positive spins of the 2024 debacle to start being applied to the soon to be expected playoff run in 2025.
