I’m running down to the UCLA game this weekend.  Where are Utah fans sitting?

I’ve been interested in the timing of when someone decides to annouce they will enter the draft.  Part of me thinks that they should wait until after the bowl game to make the announcement so as not to become a distraction from bowl preparation.  On the other hand, if they know they are going, maybe it helps with recruiting to announce before the…[Read more]

I have to admit that I have been really pleasantly surprised at how well Cam has played over the past three weeks (and in particualar–the last two weeks).  He keeps making great decision and has been remarkably accurate. I’ve noticed some people on twitter wondering how the coaching staff could have been so wrong in giving the original start to…[Read more]

I’m trying to understand the timing of the recent transfers.  Are there team meetings going on right now where players can gage potential playing time or how they might be used in the scheme this fall?  Have there been recent practices where they can see the quarterback talent (or lack of it)? 
What is driving two recievers to bail right now,…[Read more]

UCLA is a bit hard to pin down.  They started out 0-3 with a crusing loss to Oklahoma (down 34-7 at the half–ouch!), But, those losses came to teams that are all ranked and currently have four losses between them.  Then came the 67-63 win over WSU followed by a three-point loss to Arizona.  It seems like the wheels were about to come off when…[Read more]

The link below is to the highlights of Vandy’s bowl game against Baylor.  Vandy scored 38 points but gave up a touchdown in the last two minutes to lose.  Fast forward to the Vandy (in black) has the ball.  I can totally see this scheme working at Utah.

I’m looking at picking up some more tickets in the North endzone (section 102) closest to the Utah sideline.  Does anyone know if that is part of the Utah fan side?

After talking about phyical and fast Utah’s defense is, he said “We haven’t played a game like this since Alabama in 2016.”

Nice compliment.

NIU v. Iowa Highlights

For what its worth, here are few highlights from NIU’s game last week.

UNI v. Iowa Highlights

I haven’t heard anything about injuries.  It seems like (from row 47) we did not see J. Johnson much in the second half.  Did he get hurt?  Any notable injuries?

I don’t follow recruiting so I apologize in advance if this has been discussed before.  I’m looking at a list of Utah preps that might still be in play on signing day.
Penei Sewell, OL from St. George
Salua Masina, OLB from Brighton 
Jackson Cravens, DT from Timpview
Tennessee Pututau, OLB from East
Brayden Shipp, OT from American Fork

So…I’m intrigued by Coach Taylor and the offense he plans to install.  On the one hand, we’ve got a guy who appears to have a clear idea of what his offense is all about–a clear offensive identity.  He also seems to be a “quarterback whisperer,” someone many, including myself, have said this staff has been missing.  I think there is room for…[Read more]
