      The last few years, fans were mad because we had our bye week super early and stumbled to the finish. This year, ive heard a few fans upset we have it so late. Im pretty happy that our players are taking a week off and getting healthy right now instead of playing. Will be interesting to see if it helps us finish stronger than we did the last 2 seasons.

      If we can get healthy I like our chances to win out.  Colorado didn’t impress me.  We could also lose all 3 games.

      I’ver never been more happy with a bye week placement.  Even though it sucks to not have a game to watch this week.

        agreed. Love the placement. Great timing to heal up take a breath before gearing up for 3 huge games to finish the year

      Our BYE placement isn’t too bad this season, but I would have preferred to have it before the UW game instead of after it.

      I think with a few guys back (Marcus Williams, especially) we just may have come out on top against the Huskies.

      However, I think a rested Utah team wins out and meets the Huskies in the P12 Championship and we take them. UW will go to the CFP @ 12-1 and we’ll go to the Rose Bowl at 11-2!

      GO UTES!

        If Utes beat a 12-0 UW in the P12CG, we would eliminate UW from the playoffs. Conference champions only in the playoffs and I’d be shocked if that ever changes.

        Sea, I like your thinking but UW does not get in CFP at 12-1 and Utes would miss the Rose in that event.

      I feel that the next 3 games will go like this:

      Close game with Arizona state
      Close game with Oregon
      EXTREMELY CLOSE game with Colorado.

      (because that’s how all our games go usually)

      Oh and we win all 3 :).
