Utes need to play Utah football

I love Utah fans. When we win 9+ games running the ball: oh, “throw” game, we suck, old school offense, we will never win this way. 

When we overhaul the offense, including a ton of young WR’s (many of them 4 star kids) and a young QB who was amazing before getting hurt, Ute fan is all “we’ve got to get back to Utah football and running the ball”.

The simple reality is this: 

we have got to get better in the red zone and on third down. 

A lot of this stems from the fact that when we play “Utah football” we can’t throw the ball. 

We need to calm down and let Taylor and Huntley go to work. 

They need to play any kind of football but I think if they were capable of that they would have already. The D isn’t as good as we’d hoped, and also very dinged up. The O line isn’t as good as it needs to be for the offense to work.  I’m not sure there are any plays Troy could call that would work.

Every single fan base in the nation gets excited when they are on an undefeated streak. At 4-0 every fan base loses their minds a bit. then with a loss most freak out for a bit, want to fire their coaches, and get fairly depressed once the illusion is shattered until they mark it up to rebuilding or something and move on. Ute fans fall in this category. We seem to be pretty normal on the spectrum of fan sanity.

The real issue is how many of them jump on the total delusion train at any early point and start thinking their team walks on water, s**ts gold bricks, and will win every award in the NCAA.

There are only two teams that really fit this bill in the country.
1. Alabama because they suck but they are half right.
2. Zoobs because they collectively have their heads up their asses to a degree never seen elsewhere.

I despise them both. But I have to credit Alabama for having a decent NFL team. Zoobs otoh I’d just prefer to see go away and never come back.
