1. Utah (3-2) – The Utes lost their first game to USC when the Trojans had two games under their belts and Utah had none, and Utah somehow let a 21-0 halftime lead slip away against Washington in the second game. But Utah won its final three g…[Read more]

Give credit to both ADs for scheduling this on such short notice. Winner should take on Cincinnati, for the opportunity of a New Years day bowl? Not a fan of BYU, but they are making the most of COVID and independence. Next year they will go back to sub-mediocracy, certainly as Wilson moves on to the NFL.

Considering the known-knowns/unknowns (health, practices, facilities, fans), and the unknown-unknowns (COVID idiocracy), I chose to be moderately optimistic, expecting Coach Whittingham to have had his players at least conditioned ready to go.
5-1. – Arizona State worries me. They will be ready as well.

But starting and ending when? Everything in the news/blogs talks to Oregon and other schools balking at anything sooner than the 31st. Otherwise I would not be unhappy with a PAC12 only schedule.

As one of my favorite characters once said “…knock it off with them negative waves”. Oddball was not, but could have been talking about PAC12 playing football in 2020. I propose my six (seven) game schedule starting on the 31 (or 24) October. What say you?

How about taking a break from recruiting, and talk about the next game. Those of you closer to the coaches and players; how does this game breakdown? The blue side of my family are beginning feel confident (again).

Post signing day fun.
2020’s recruiting STATE CHAMPS, mapped and explained
New Mexico: Utah got the #1 player, three-star TE Connor O’Toole, and there were only four rated recruits in the state.
Utah: Oregon got the only five-star, the little brother of a current Duck. But Utah dominated otherwise, signing four of the top five.

Shaken by the last two games, but taking the season as a whole, I agree with USA Today; Utah Ute Season was a A-.

Many of us are knowledgeable; many too busy drinking red koolaid, or curled up in despair, to be reasonably informed or interesting. I keep my inner-snowflake in check, and read Pace’s comments, and cooresponding responses, if not for entertainment purposes.

Wins over Montana State and BYU at home to start the year. Cal, Colorado, and UCLA all away, and after playing Wyoming and Arizona State – on the road. All are winnable with the talent coming back, but winning three of the five is reasonable expectation. Wins over Arizona and Oregon State at home. Winning one of the USC and Washington…[Read more]
