KiYi-Ute

I don’t care what songs they play in RES as long as they never, ever play Sweet Caroline again.

That’s my quarterback!

Thanks for everything, Lisk! Couldn’t think of a better sendoff for you than that second half vs. Wazzu. He’s a true Ute, wish him nothing but the absolute best in the future.

We’ll be playing him in a few years. Hope he does well and wish him all the best. Luckily, DT has never been a huge position of need for us.

Go Utes!

These are great points. Something else to consider is that we are blitzing far less this year and really only rushing 4 on a majority of defensive snaps. We’re doing this to give as much support to our secondary as possible. It makes it harder for the pass rush to get home if we’re not also bringing an LB or CB/Safety on a blitz package.

Tupai and Tafua are upperclassmen, they will have to move on from the program eventually (and sooner rather than later). I don’t see Fillinger or Carlton leaving after 4 games as true freshman. The expectation was not for them to come in and start day one anyway.

I know people might be concerned after seeing Brumfield and Wilmore enter the…[Read more]

Hopefully our incredibly prolific passing attack doesn’t embarrass us too much on national TV.

I am stoked about the opportunity for exposure, I just hope it’s the right kind…

I think it’s both, as you alluded to. OSU made adjustments by stacking the box, and we went conservative with the playcalling (and ran right into said stacked box).

I think Jake’s turnovers through the first two games have really impacted playcalling. I’m no football coach, but I’ve watched a lot of football. There are ways to be “conservative”…[Read more]

UCLA seems to be finding their footing this year, I’m not sure that I’d want them. For the sake of being bowl-eligible (if there are any bowls left at this point), I agree that I’d much prefer to play ASU or AZ.

Plus, it’s always fun to beat ASU.

Agreed. Bentley got thrown into a game without having any practice reps, after having COVID and with an O Line that did him no favors. Granted, he made some questionable decisions and mistakes.

Let’s see how he looks after a full week of prep and with a gameplan that’s drawn up to his strengths before passing judgement.

I don’t know. I think I’m really going to miss the uniforms from last week…

Appears that there is not much to this rumor at all: Bartle article

“Institutions of higher learning” are limited to practicing in “cohorts” of six to twelve individuals that cannot overlap. I believe that they are also limited to non-contact.

Not sure how you run a football practice with those restrictions.

I would suspect that the transfer portal is going to light up. Players are going to go wherever they can to play ball. One of many reasons that this could have huge ramifications for the program in the long-term if other conferences are somehow able to get things together to play.

Anchor’s aweigh! Go Midshipmen!

I wonder if I can get a cardboard cutout of myself put in my seats for the games that I can’t attend like some of the baseball teams are doing.

Hah, within about 20 minutes of the name being released, the internet was already proclaiming the new arena as the KrakHouse, so I would assume that we’re not far off from that.
