It was the right call. Home team wins OT 60% of the time. You win the coin toss you win 60%. Assuming those two things perfectly balance each other Utah at best had a 50-50 chance. At worst like a 25% chance.

Good call by Whitt.

Quick slants into the vacated area. That’ll slow them up right quick.

Assuming all things stay the same, I think Huntley would make the winning plays. However, this is an impossible task to really say because we don’t know what adjustments would be made, don’t know whether Huntely would fold under certain pressure, have a bad game, force things, get injured, etc.

Don’t let them steal our signals.

Yes. That penalty was all on the refs. The D only has 3 seconds immediately after the offense subs. That was ridiculous.

I wouldn’t be. This is more of a blip than it is a trend, if you ask me. If they do win, they might have a come down like WSU.

Question, would you rather have a 50-50 chance to win on the TO or risk the odds of playing against odds that say home team wins 60% of the time and the team that wins the coin toss and defers wins 60% of the time. Sure, you have a 50-50 shot to have a chance to have a 50-50 shot to win in OT, but you play first and that’s an uphill slog,…[Read more]

The numbers disagree with you. Utah should have gone for it. Home team has a near 60% chance of winning in OT. Then you can maybe even that out if you win the toss and defer. But if you lose the toss then you have a 60% of losing if you go first on offense. The numbers dictated going for it.

There is a chart in the article that states when down by 1 you only need to make it 56% percent of the time on the two-point conversion.

I can’t remember the stat, despite searching, and it is something near 60% winning percentage for home teams in OT.…[Read more]

Do you know what makes this better? The fact that Virginia has a better record.

I prefer Utah runs out to the music and some speech by Whitt reflecting this.

And they may have lost Fred Warner and Ah You.

They’re broken. Utah state broke their spirits. They have 0 fire anymore.

They may not win another game. Yikes.

I took it to Big O in bountiful.

It had been a little under six months since the last change and just over 5k miles. I figured ”twas about due. Maybe it was just a change in the oil but who knows. I’ll be going back in to see what I can do about the check engine light though.

Update:

After fiddling with the air filter my car is back to normal. I’m still taking it on to see about the service engine light though.

And his brother will be a dog fighter in the trenches. In shot, we’ll have the Mountain and the Hound.

Don’t you think that’s a fairly small sample size to declare regression?

The o line certainly wasn’t phenomenal but they did okay. About 1/2 to 1/3 of the pressures came as a result of Williams inexplicably running directly into pressure.
