Most of the teams that are often in the discussion for the national championship and the playoff are teams that frequently finish with only 1 or 2 losses, at the most. Then they break through once in a while with undefeated or 1 loss years where they make the championship.

Utah seems to be a 3 to 4 loss regular/conference season team. Since joining the P5, I think Utah has only finished with fewer than three losses in regular season / conference play (outside COVID) one time: 2019 (with 2). Not sure that changes too much in the Big 12.

Regular season losses count less with the expanded playoff and autobids; however, if you can’t avoid losses during the season, you probably won’t avoid a loss in the playoffs.

I’d love to see Utah win a real (on the field) national championship. I just won’t get my hopes up too far.

I thought Wilson was supposed to have surgery and sit out this coming season?

You can literally buy the shirt at the link in the twitter post.

I have never purchased from ‘dahlelama’ before, but it seems to indicate that the products are officially licensed.

I would still watch Utah football. I would be disappointed, but I would still be a fan.

If you think Utah has been playing on a level field with the Ohio State, Alabama, USC, and Texas teams of the world (even in the Pac-12 era) then you haven’t really been paying attention.

While Utah may have closed the gap a little as a member of the Pac-12, we will likely never be able to come close to the advantages experienced by those teams on and off the field.

Even if we were invited to the “Big Kid’s Table”, we would be playing underneath the table, hoping for scraps or a chance to peak at the feast above. That chance may come once in a while, but probably not too often.

He did and I wish he hadn’t. However, I am all for people doing what they feel is best.

We’ve heard that before… 😉

The OP’s premise is that Whittingham will retire. Why would he come back as the DC?

[RedRocks]

If he goes undrafted, can he come back?

[RedRocks]

Nah. I like @cptmrgn05 ‘s more realistic takes (even when I don’t agree). Can they be a bit pessimistic at times? Sure.

However, this board (like many fan boards) can become like an echo chamber at times and needs a dose of reality here and there.

Tell me you didn’t read the details without telling me you didn’t read the details…
