Oh, I totally agree that the season is not over yet. We’ll just have to see how the rest of the games play out. Hopefully Rising is under center next Friday night.

I think many of us need to quit over reacting to this AZ loss. I for one never thought Utah would run the table undefeated especially with a true freshman QB at the helm. Utah will be ready for ASU and after Utah wins we can all over react the other way. Btw…tired of hearing all the negativity about Cam. He has stuck with the Ute program for t…[Read more]

No one has. This is a circus.

I agree UtesRule enough already. Let’s play the next 7 games and save the negative vibes for after the season.

Well, as I said, given Utah’s current circumstances, you’re not wrong. It just takes turning on the TV and watching more than one team.

Also, Utah destroyed ASU last season 55-3 at RES and have beaten the Sun Devils quite handily the last four times they’ve played them. So, I think ASU is going to be extremely motivated to play Utah, and, historically, visits to Tempe don’t normally fare well for Utah. Utah is 5-15 all-time in Tempe. Make of that what you will.

Please tell me where I’m wrong. Vanderbilt is going stride for stride with the number 1 team in the country. UNLV and Syracuse both have better offenses than Utah. West Virginia is demolishing the same team we barely beat. Indiana is 6-0 and they just beat northwestern 41-24. Rutgers and Nebraska are both solid teams. Boise state has a great o…[Read more]

I’ve been accused of being a naive optimistic at times. I just feel like this off week really gets things right and we turn a corner. In many facets.

Miami I’m sure they looked at options at QB. 2023 was a mistake not finding a portal QB. 2023 was a disaster period. 2024 is a different circumstance. Rising was the right choice to give us the best chance to win and mentor Wilson. We are 4-1 which everyone predicted we would be at this point. 7 games left its a little early to judge on results u…[Read more]

I can’t begin to explain to you how worried I am about that game. Dillingham has something cooking down in Tempe. It kind of reminds me of the feeling I had last season before we went down to Tucson to play Zona. Hopefully, Cam is back for that game and stays healthy for the rest of the season.

Jim, at the end of the day, in business and in life, you’re judged on your results. If this season ends up as bad, or worse, than 2023, then sticking with Rising after the Jan 2023 Rose Bowl will have been proved to have been the wrong decision. We can play if/that and shoulda/woulda all day long, but that doesn’t feed the bulldog. The only…[Read more]

I’m withholding a very strong opinion either way about the trajectory of the season until after ASU Friday. It will be very telling.

Last year was a disaster any way you look at it. So at the end of last season our options were:
1. Rose who never took a snap and got beat out by Barnes.
2. Wilson an incoming freshman
3. Find a veteran QB in the portal who doesn’t know Ludwig’s offense (Bentley and Brewer) and want 1.7 million Gabriel unknown$$ Cam Ward. Neither and the oth…[Read more]

7 conference games left. Just win baby.

Where’s the overreaction? You think UTah, given its current circumstances, would be up 23-14 on Bama at halftime? Everyone of those teams that he mentioned have been killing it or, at least, looking better than Utah without Rising.

Talk about a massive over reaction

You know, I hope I’m wrong about this, but as I was driving home from last Saturday night’s game, the feeling that I had was that Utah got found out. Once again we were in the Top 10 and once again we were playing in front of a national audience and once again we crapped the bed. This is just me, and I could obviously be completely wrong, but I…[Read more]

There’s a lot of historical revisionism going on here with this issue. Whitt played mind games all of last season having Cam take up 1st team reps and calling his participation a game-time decision until November rolled around. I know I will be downvoted for this, but I’ve never seen a QB room as badly managed in 50 years of being a football fan…[Read more]
