This is a good get!

Let’s hope the Pac12 does as they always do and follows the BigTen in this decision!

With the addition of Ja’Quinden Jackson this morning, Utah now has 3 of the top 4 recruits in the history of Utah Football on its current roster….  and they’re all FRESHMEN.

Geez, how bad is Washington this year?

In the biggest non-surprise news of the weekend… Sumlin is out at Arizona.

Apparently, Washington likes to play from behind.  14-0 Stanford in the 1st Q.

Just wanted to wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving tomorrow. 
Thank you, Tony, for creating this awesome board.  I think it will continue to grow because it has very high-quality posters willing to give their 2 cents.  
Thank you to those that takes time to come on here and give their takes.  We all have our own view on things, but it’s always…[Read more]

Looks like conference management received bonuses shortly before all of the furloughs and lay offs took effect.  I thought the Enron model of fiscal management was a BAD idea.

Haha… do you guys watch these SEC Shorts?  This one’s pretty good although it pokes a little fun at the Pac12 being the Big Ten’s whipping boy (and right now that’s accurate).  I do take exception to the ACC acting like they’re equal with the SEC though.  The ACC is a one-trick pony.  Anyway, there are a whole host of these things and they’re…[Read more]

Now that the season is shot, I’m curious what you guys are going to do about this year’s season tickets?  I think I’m going to just put it towards next year’s cost, but I’m wondering if any of you are considering calling this year’s cost a donation?  

Happy Holidays to all of you.  That was one hell of a football season and I’m VERY thankful to have been in the playoff discussion the last week of the season.  We’re not quite there yet, but I love the upward trajectory.
I’m wondering what everyone’s thoughts are on the upcoming bowl game.  I’ll be honest, the life was kind of sucked out of me a…[Read more]

Most of the top 9 in the CFP rankings are on the road this weekend.  These are the only 9 teams that still have a chance to make the playoffs (teams with 1 loss or less).  
Based on Massey’s predictor, there’s only a 10% chance of all 9 teams winning this weekend.  Utah’s 98% chance of beating Colorado is second only to Georgia’s 99% chance of…[Read more]

OMG, it’s about time to get this thing rolling again!  I’m so excited to sit at a rain-free game tomorrow (probably just jinxed us all).
I know it’s been a long 2 weeks, but is anyone else kind of thankful that we had a bye after that Washington game?  I mean, we got a GIANT monkey off our backs on that one and if we would have played this UCLA…[Read more]

Just a few random thoughts for a stress-free bye weekend…
 

• Utah is only six wins away from shoving our Sugar Bowl and Fiesta Bowl trophies aside to make room for the National Championship prize.  Interestingly enough, we have an 83% chance of winning the first three games but it drops to a 3% chance of winning the last three (I used Oregon,…

Didn’t like my cut and paste formatting…. see below.

Man, I would NOT want to be on the selection committee this year.
Let’s ASSUME the following three teams end up undefeated (and assured a spot):
Ohio State- I don’t see anyone beating them.
LSU- Whoever wins the Bama/LSU game will win out.  I like LSU.
Clemson- They’ll win the Sun Belt 2 Conference and go undefeated.
 
That could very well…[Read more]
