Last year I watched almost every game on YouTube. Standard, good old fashion YouTube. Someone from overseas streamed it.

It is very interesting to think of all of these changes in college football that would appear to be progressive and innovative, yet they can’t solve the how to make it easier and convenient for its fans to watch games on tv. Feels like we’re sliding backwards with this instead of making it a better experience. I would think that the average fan would even pay more if the games were consolidated to one channel or network rather than have to sift through 6 of them to watch a few games. I suppose they haven’t learned yet that convenience is a premium that people will pay for!!!

This is a needed discussion. My needs go beyond just watching, I want to add the ability to DVR games. Going backwards, in the Pac, I could record all Utah games with one request for the year on Xfinity with no regard to channels. I could be 30 minutes late to start the Utah game while watching another finish and be live by halftime. I could easily record the games of the significant other Pac games, and always the team one week out (goodness, I miss the 60 minute replays). I hate to be tied to live games other than when in the stadium. There is simply too much going on on Saturday when the Utes are on the road with national games to not use the DVR. Last, for me is also the basketball team schedule and on occasion the woman’s BB games. Is there a DVR option that provides this coverage. A personal problem I have been slow to fix since leaving the Pac.

“Real G’s move in silence like lasagna.” I think a lot of our fans who have been loud and outspoken these past two seasons are rightfully being more reserved this year.

Utah football needs to get its swagger back and putting in quiet work without hype is a nice change of pace.

I am really excited to have a new QB under center, a new playcaller on the offensive side of things, and what appears to be a new energy among the players.

I really believe it is going to be a fun season and I can’t wait for the cooler weather to finally get here.

TNT and HBO Max have been advertising that they have the Big 12 now. Is that a thing?

[SkinyUte]

Partly because I’m getting older, partly because there are far more important things to pay attention to in the world, partly because of NIL/transfer portal nonsense. and partly because I’ve got kid stuff every weekend, I have paid zero attention during the offseason.

Doubt I’ll spend much time paying attention during the season either, tbh. Sold our season tickets for the first time in 21 years and I haven’t even bothered looking into reactivating some sort of streaming service to watch games.

Just very ‘meh’ on college sports in general, I suppose.

Who said Travis was elite? Beach certainly didn’t.

[Jim Vanderhoof]

Good points Beach. I think the 2019 team and the 2022 teams had a lot more talent. Moss and Thomas were big running backs and they wore the defense down. A good running game can make a QBs job much easier. Both Rising and Huntley were exceptional leaders. Dampier seems to have the same leadership qualities and is a dynamic player. I think after the Texas Tech game we will have a better idea of his and the teams talent and ability to win games. I’m optimistic this team can win over 8 games. I’m putting my $$$ on the over 7.5 wins.

that’s the rub. another issue is if you don’t live in an area where the team you want to watch gets priority. I know for the NFL, having the networks doesn’t matter here in Arizona if you want to watch the Seahawks like my family does.

The antenna is a good idea but it has limits to its effectiveness

[USS Utah]

OTOH, Utah threw the ball 22 times for 165 yards (70 of which came on that first play) and ran the ball 30 times for 105 yards against Florida in 2023.

Against USC, Barnes threw 23 times for 235 Yards. Utah ran the ball 47 times for 247 yards.
