1st round isn’t done yet (waiting on Arizona) but at this point:
Utah played against 8 of the 1st rounders in 2023. An additional 3 in previous seasons in Daniels, Robinson and Harrison.

That was the 1988 Rice Bowl to break the 9 game loss streak. Sean Knox recovered but I can’t remember who had the hit.

Iowa State is going to be in the mix and if Kansas can keep Jalon Daniels healthy, they will be there also. I think you can put a blanket over 5 to 6 teams at this point and just see who separates during the season.
No one really has a gauntlet like we saw in the PAC the last 2 years so it may come down to tie-breakers to even get into the game.

2008 National Champ replied to the topic G5 Playoff and/or reorganization in talks in the forum Football 1 day, 16 hours ago
I think it depends on what year you are talking. National opinion forced Utah to be allowed to break through in ’04 and by ’08/’09, there was a groundswell with TCU and Boise that one spot wasn’t enough. Realignment slowed that talk down but in the initial 4 team structure, the G5’s agreed to just the one spot that they were already getting…[Read more]

Yeah. You can get away with that sort of in college. I mean he got injured a little. In the NFL you be dead.
EagleMountainUte replied to the topic Colorado RB in the forum Football 1 day, 21 hours ago
I don’t necessarily agree he is part of the problem. The buck stops with the coaching. It was stupid for Coach Prime to assume a bunch of small ass lineman can run the scheme. I guess if part you mean he was on the team with the most sacked qb.
2008 National Champ replied to the topic G5 Playoff and/or reorganization in talks in the forum Football 2 days, 9 hours ago
There’s been 11 votes(voters) since they decided to go to a playoff and it has had to be unanimous every step of the way. The time to force anything was before the initial playoff started, and the next best option was while the 12 team options were being floated. Instead, they were just happy to go along with the bigger conferences as long as…[Read more]
2008 National Champ replied to the topic G5 Playoff and/or reorganization in talks in the forum Football 2 days, 11 hours ago
The problem is that the G5’s have had equal representation at the votes and keep voting to give themselves scraps. The time to stand up for themselves has pretty much passed by this point so I’m not sure what leverage they have.
Until they are willing to force change, this sounds like just more clickbait speculation
2008 National Champ replied to the topic Transfer Portal Needs in the forum Football 2 days, 11 hours ago
I’m not at practice so I certainly don’t have any insight other than speculation. At the same time, the RB room is starting to resemble the QB room from a year ago with Charlie Vincent playing the Bryson Barnes role. Cute story but not what you want to have your season riding on.
Bernard has had multiple years to seize the RB1 spot and hasn’t…[Read more]
2008 National Champ replied to the topic Transfer Portal Needs in the forum Football 2 days, 14 hours ago
I may be in the minority but I see one of the three RS Freshman backs taking over RB1 by season’s end. I don’t think Utah needs a transfer as much as they need to figure out what they have and move on from any that haven’t shown they can handle the job by now.
There’s just a logjam at the position that won’t be helped by bringing in someone to…[Read more]

sure, no one is getting Lotto type money out of it. But if you can add 5% on top of your salary through multiple books – which also helps with tenure – it’s a worthy venture. It’s not like Prof’s don’t have plenty of time to pump those things out.

it was tough to put the perfect 10 on hiatus but my sister quilted me a one of kind, hooded wrap(?) to wear at cold weather games. I thought I’d show it off for awhile before putting ms Dabritz back where she belongs.
