Hard to say. Depends on whether the team shows up. If not, all the beer I have will be poured in my mouth only.

Haha, this post is amazing. Let’s give credit where credit is due. BYU is better, no debate from me. Tip of the cap.

Now with that out of the way, I want everyone to imagine that you are at home reveling in your team’s achievements. You feel like celebrating. Hell, you feel like gloating. You are practically bursting with joy. You have been wai…[Read more]

Yes, any Big 12 team that goes to the CFP is going to get boat raced, but stressing that at this point would just be sour grapes. Props to the cougs. I wish it didn’t pain me to see them succeed. I feel childish when I hope they lose, but I can’t change the culture I grew up with. They’ve had some lean years and deserve it this time around, as do…[Read more]

To be clear, I know that evaluating talent, especially quarterbacks is very difficult. It’s very difficult for the most seasoned talent evaluators in the NFL and college. I’m not even saying that the fact that Rose isn’t the guy is his fault. I’m sure he is a great kid that works hard, but it’s been interesting that all of the focus seems to…[Read more]

While I understand your point, booing for many people doesn’t come from a serious place. A college football game is a place where we set norms aside and everyone silently agrees that we are all going to act like children for 3 hours. Grown men dress up in costumes, we do dances when we succeed, and light fireworks and fire cannons when we score. F…[Read more]

Everyone gets a pass in my mind, Cam and frustrated fans alike. Top level college NIL is simultaneously just and ridiculous. A quarterback like Cam, especially when he is leading the team to Rose bowls, is generating a ton of revenue and he deserves a piece of the pie. Then something as small as a basic finger injury happens and the optics change…[Read more]

It’s a tough situation. Tougher than it’s been for a bit. Utah was a pretender this year and will probably finish 7-5 or 8-4 if we are lucky, but I wouldn’t hold my breath. We are as likely to finish 6-6 as we are 8-4. If we are going to get years where we overachieve, I guess we have to be willing to take years where we underachieve too.

The…[Read more]

Something doesn’t look right with Mr Rising… I would be shocked if he even lasts the game.

Whether it’s justified or not, I don’t remember a time where the perception of a Utah team changed more in the course of seven days than Oklahoma State to Arizona. It’s actually been kind of amazing to watch. We were in Stillwater, completely owning the team that we thought would be our biggest competition with a 17 year old QB. Then with 7 min l…[Read more]

Venmo or Zelle

I don’t know this guy from Adam but let’s be honest, there was a lot of truth there… he was ranting and sarcastic and looked like a borderline crazy person with his 47 summer camp style beaded necklaces and bracelets, but through all of that distraction he still kind of nailed it. The Utah arrogance, the mostly good but still somehow under…[Read more]

Nobody punches above their weight like Utah and I think that had skewed our expectations a lot. Utah’s 247 recruiting class rank last 5 years – 20,34,35,30,43. Three different times during that stretch we finish in the top 16 in the final AP poll. We have an amazing football culture, arguably the most stable coaching staff in the country, and by o…[Read more]

I don’t know all the specifics of his injury, so can’t say for sure. I heard dislocation and laceration at one point. Assuming there was no serious soft tissue damage given that he didn’t require surgery. Stitches would normally come out in about seven days and skin should be pretty strong by now. Would someone be able to throw a football at this…[Read more]

This 👆🏻. Could not have said it better myself. Adversity is invaluable for the growth of a team. The stats on the defensive end are somewhat deceiving. Especially with pass yards. Bryson was throwing the ball with zero conscience. Credit to their receivers, but if balls are being thrown into almost non existent windows and highlight reel catches…[Read more]

As long as there are nerds there will be studies and as long as there are studies there will be data and facts. You are entitled to your own opinion. You are not entitled to your own facts. Recruiting matters still, a lot.

Expecting and fine with the inevitable downvotes that come with a comment like this. This whole situation just makes Utah seem like a pretender. I have no reason to think Myles is anything but a great kid. The comment has nothing to do with him as a person. Good for him for having options.

Utah just occupies a funny place in the college…[Read more]

Not a cardiologist, but I work in medicine and more than likely chance that he feels better now than he did prior to the incident. Tons of patients don’t even realize that they are having symptoms related to poor blood flow to their heart until they get it corrected. Hopefully he is good to go.

This 👆🏻. Isaac had two bad picks, but if anything he showed us that he has a little gunslinger in him, which I welcome. I don’t want a play it safe and always check down type of quarterback, which is what most kids 3 months removed from HS would be.

The RB fumbles on the other hand… no bueno. Hopefully a repeat of the Tavion Thomas situation whe…[Read more]
