Thanks for the post, Virginia Ute! We’d like a Padres-Tigers series, as my wife is from MI and the reason we support SD is bc she went to school (K-12) with their 2nd baseman’s dad!

Great post, Jim, very balanced and well reasoned – how the heck am I suppose to overreact to that? 🙂

BC it’s not a “Fire the Coach/The season is over post” as one often sees after an unexpected loss…

I will admit that I haven’t watched the game yet as I DVR’d it, but having said that, here’s a potentially unpopular take on the loss to AZ after reading about the game and several related Ute Hub posts:

First, Utah always seems to have at least one “WTF” loss per season, with the exceptions of 2004 and 2008, and in 2008 there were games that…[Read more]

Exactly, Hellhound152 – Article is intended to be a weekly tongue in cheek recap of the previous weekend’s CFB results but still nice to see the national media taking note of the Utes!

From Monday’s USA Today article “College football Week 4 overreactions”:

Just send the Big 12 trophy to Utah

With the win at Oklahoma State in the bank and the Sunflower State contenders fading, the Utes are clearly in the driver’s seat in their new conference at this early juncture. The remainder of their schedule looks quite manageable with o…[Read more]

I like that OSU is favored to win, should add a bit more motivation for our Utes!

Plus he finally gets to be on a team from his home state. Hope he gets an opportunity and balls out for the Hallandale Trio!

Thanks for fixing the link, Tony!

TX_UTE started the topic OPI in the forum Football 1 month ago

Watched the NDS-CO game and watching the PSU-WV game to try and get a bead on some of the Ute’s upcoming competition this year and new B12 conference mates. Does it seem to anyone else that OPI has been deemphasized this year? I saw several egregious missed calls during the CO game and one at the end of the PSU-WV 1st half. With the new 2 minute…[Read more]

Interesting read and novel approach to detail just how long conference realignment has been underway…and while I was expecting a bit more at the end, you’ll smile just the same – trust me!

TX_UTE replied to the topic Utah Football facts from the PAC-12 era in the forum Football 2 months ago

Thanks for the great post, UteDuke! I’m both sad to say goodbye to the P12 and excited to see how Utah’s vaunted defense will stack up in a league known for it’s offense, as in “first team to 100 wins”…and as always, Go Utes!

I hear you, belli1976 but since my NCAAM bracket has been pretty much blown up and the Lady Utes are out it’s still nice to have a team to root for, even if its for the NIT championship…and would love to see the seniors go out on a high note, but we all know how poorly this team has played on the road.

Go UTES!

TX_UTE replied to the topic Ute Ladies Taking It to the Zags in the forum Basketball (Men) 6 months, 2 weeks ago

And then the 2nd quarter 8 point happened…Lady Utes were able to come back and beat SD but not Gonzaga…good season all around, though!

TX_UTE replied to the topic This is part of the problem in the forum Basketball (Men) 6 months, 2 weeks ago

Have to agree with GameForAnyFuss. During my time on the Hill, Men’s BB was King, we had to camp out at the Special Events Center the night before game tix where released to get student seats while you could walk up to Rice-Eccles at the start of any FB game and get your tickets. As George C. Scott’s Patton character put it, “Americans love a…[Read more]

TX_UTE replied to the topic Mens BB amd the PAC12 NCAA Record in the forum Basketball (Men) 6 months, 2 weeks ago

Understood and think the best thing for the team to do is keep winning in the NIT to finish out strong for the seniors and help recruiting!

TX_UTE started the topic Mens BB amd the PAC12 NCAA Record in the forum Basketball (Men) 6 months, 2 weeks ago

So how is everyone feeling about the Men’s BB season after the PAC12 goes 4 for 4 in the play-in/first round so far? Happier in that the league is holding up better than ACC and SEC bluebloods Virginia and Kentucky or bitter that they didn’t win a few more games and be in the dance themselves as the tourney always seems to deliver these kinds of…[Read more]

Big Thumbs Up – any chance to keep playing, even in the NIT, is a chance to get better for a brutal introduction to B12 BB!
