It does while you are young. As you get older time seems to accelerate and there is no slowing it down. Savor the moments you have. BTW I too am looking forward to the game.

Then we go 1-8 in bowl games? I do believe there is a bias against the West. Whatever the reason, it does not matter. We need to win games when they are on TV. (Bowls, inter sectional…. or whenever.) Recently the PAC-12 has not done this. I agree with the 8 game conference schedule and another home game, otherwise I think we have earned our…[Read more]

I believe a prime example of what Coach Chow said being true is the Washington Redskins of the 1980’s and early 90’s. They won 3 Super Bowls with the same coaching staff and basically the same OL with 3 different QB’s. Great line play leads to great offense. Poor line play leads to injured and broken QB’s.

I was a bit disappointed in the OL not controlling the Line of Scrimmage.
We will see if that improves in game 2. Turnovers are also a concern.
Over-all we played like I expected and pretty much controlled the game.

Thanks for the clarification.

1. Win every home game.
2. No WTF losses
3. Kill BYU
4. Stay as healthy as possible.
5. Win all OOC games decisively.
6. Win PAC12 South.
7. Have offensive balance.
8. Get a New Years Day bowl bid.
9. Win bowl game.
10. Retain all coaches for stability in recruiting.

A flask in the waistband will work every time unless they start frisking people. In the top of your socks or in your coat pocket when the weather turns colder will also work. Just saying…..

Battle Ground,
Careful about wishing your life away, you may want it back later.LOL
I too can hardly wait. This year could be very exciting indeed.

Cell Service…. we don’t need no stinking cell service… LOL.
Really though they can stop the cRAP music and play something more to the crowd’s demographic.

I have been to quite a few spring games. That game was by far the most fun to watch. I understand that the schemes were watered down, however, when was the last time 40 points were scored in one of those games? I am truly excited about this year’s team and am looking forward to the start of the season.

I will be there with my son and grandson.

I love the mountain west. I really don’t buy into the Utah is no fun because the Mormons don’t allow fun dialog. I believe SLC has enough diversity in its culture to find almost any kind of fun you are looking for. However if you are looking for the gang and drug culture or the heavy drinking nightclub culture, it may be a bit more difficult to…[Read more]

I don’t know about better seats. AA is right at center court. I sit in BB. I actually prefer the upper bowl because I can see the plays develop better. It is a little harder to see the up close action but that usually is remedied by the video board. I guess we all have our own quirky ways of viewing things.

With great expectation comes either great exhilaration or greater disappointment.

We are good. I believe the NFL’s offensive formation rule is lacking. In college you can have everyone on the line except the QB. Of course that means only 2 receivers are eligible. This would give the defense an advantage because of the flawed formation. The NCAA allows it. The NFL penalizes it. In the NFL you must always have 7 on the line and…[Read more]

@chidojuan, Why do games have rules at all? Why only 2 1/2 steps for traveling in basketball? There are lots of rules for sports. They are there to make it fair for both teams. The refs are there to make sure the rules are followed. There may be a great many rules that are unexplained. They are still the rules and each team is or at least should…[Read more]

Very disappointing start for sure. I am glad UCLA fumbled that punt. That seemed to wake up the Utes.

It is a rule. Regardless if we like it or not it has been a rule since I played in the 1970’s. Like holding or clipping or any other rule it needs to be followed or a penalty will be assessed. The players know it is a rule as do the coaches. It is up to them to follow it. It is up to the refs to call it if they see it. Simple as that.

I booed. I was booing the offensive coaching staff for its late substitutions and lack of focus from the players.
We consistently substitute late in the play clock and have had to call time-out on numerous occasions this year. I believe that should have been addressed and cleaned up by now. I also dislike that we sub out after every play. How do…[Read more]
