RUUTES

Favored always worries me. #7 looks earned after last night. The OU/USC thrashing last night though might make some push the ducks over someone who was idle. I have to say I really do look forward to us getting a shot to compare our D to their O…but we still have 3 games to play (with an improving UCLA) before we think about that too…[Read more]

may have lots of upside but starting him cold against UW wasn’t the right place (well unless you’ve ran out of options). Gotta ease these kids in a bit. Didn’t notice any positive impact because the first quarter was an all around dumpster fire for the team. So I read nothing into his 10 minutes. Hope he’s healthy enough to get some play time…[Read more]

Agreed. Urban probably gets paid enough to run out the season on TV and punting Helton after last night doesn’t really chance much now on the arc of their season (except they’d have to pay him to not work). I suspect within 12 hours of the end of the UCLA game they make the announcement.

I really prefer All Red…then all black…then a combination of red and black. Just can’t grow to love White.

I caught that right after I posted. So then I did both. Not that it matters cuz I’m never right.

Given how we’ve been able to sub out a lot in the last 4 weeks, the extra week of watching our tape may not be as valuable to UW as some might think…unless TH isn’t healthy. In which case we have other things to worry about.

Just wish this were a home game for us. Like I really really wish this were a home game for us. I get nervous playing in the state of Washington and in Autzen…well because of History.

They are starting to show some real signs of life….we had best not look past them. In the PAC-12 on any given week anything can happen. Hope it happens to USC cuz they are too arrogant to not look past UCLA.

Utah 28 UW 21

Let us hope.

I kinda think you need to paint an accent wall red behind your monitors. Just sayin 😀

Ute O will score at least 21 and it’ll be enough.

That guy needs some serious anger management therapy…and some medicine to increase his IQ if he’s posting his shit up publicly like that. Social Media has lobotomized our country. This guy is proof. I’m good with some fan base or TEAM smack but going directly after some kid with death or injury wishes is…bent.

It’s sad when a 17 year old is crushed before they ever have a chance to develop into a real college QB….but that’s what happens when their coaches put them in the game facing Anae. What can ya do?

As long as Zach’s mother has a pristine copy of that ticket then I think all is well.

If we get to play on New Years day and it isn’t in the Rose Bowl then I want the Orange because eventually I want us to get the Grand Slam.

4 team playoff is a lame stopgap. We need to go to 8 (winner of 5 P5, top G-5 rank, next 2 ranked from wherever).

But that ain’t this year and as much as I love our Utes…we aren’t a top 4 right now. I would like to focus on winning the South and then…I’ll be nervous about playing UO.

USC does seem like a different team at home but I think UO is for real this year. IF they are as good as they appear to be I think the home field USC still won’t be enough. But I’m not in Vegas betting on much in the PAC-12 this year. Crazy abounds.

I’m happy with that. I get nervous when we’re in the top 10 early. 12 seems like a nice spot given our 4 turnovers and lack of offensive production. Let’s stay there but win out and then we can get recognized if/when we beat UO in the Pac-12 championship.

I thought Shelly’s “running” was unspeakable last night. Both scrambles seemed horrifically inept. Massive regression from last year. Not sure what’s been happening in practice to drop Shelly to 3rd on the depth chart but something bad showed on the field last night. I still don’t understand what Lisk is about but that’s because we haven’t…[Read more]
