Let’s combine all of our final thoughts before and during the game here. Makes for a fun thread. I’ll start it off with a score prediction:

27-13 Utah

Ute defense just too strong and too deep for the questionable Cougar O-line and they struggle to put together drives. Troy Williams shows flashes of greatness but we keep it conservative after getting a 2 score lead and lean on the defense to hold serve.

Thanks for starting it. I was just about to do that. I will add something to your post because I’m going to pin this to the top

[leftyjace]

I like your prediction, Thlete. I could easily adopt it as my own.

[Milton Vanderslice]

No respect on College Game Day. Now I want to run up the score.

[Torg]

What were their predictions for today’s game?

[CyclingUte]

Only Corso picked the Utes

I think they bring out Mangum and start throwing jump balls to try to drag themselves back into it. But like you said defense wins this game again.

[RedLine]

Second one on them calling out Mangum

Ive spent the morning reading comments from seriously confident and pure hate filled zoobs. I am so ready for this game….

I think our D line manhandles their O line. I think we force Taysom to make throws that he cant and he throws 2 INTs, y fans will say after the game they would have won if they made less mistakes

[Chitz]

We will win this game in the trenches. Our D line will live up to its hype, and the O line will respond in a big way to all of the criticism since the SUU scrimmage. 31-9.

I’m not an X’s and O’s guy so I have to look for other methods to predict our win. When I came out of the gym this morning there was a BMW parked next to me with a Ute Mom sticker on it. It may not seem significant to all of you But since this was in Nashville I’m taking it as a good omen and none of you can change my mind.

I think Utah is going to win this in the second half aka 54-10. Once up by 2 the Yners will quit on Sitake and Co.

[UTE98]

I’m predicting 17-13 at half, and 34-20 for the final score. ONE MORE HOUR!!!!!!

For anyone that recorded that game, they have this thing called BleachBit. I heard it works well at erasing stuff.

First byu utah football game i’ve ever attended. what an interesting, messy, classic game.

Random sidenote: Ran into Dante Exum from the Jazz at the 7/11 on 400 s and 900 e. Chatted with the guy for a moment. Any other big time Jazz fans here?

[Thlete]

I still can’t believe the Utes coughed up 6 fumbles, lost 3, and threw 3 INTs and STILL won the game. What a performance from the defense. I really wanted to finish that epic 12 minute 4th quarter drive with a TD. And not just because it would have made my prediction really close.

[89ute]

This hit is going to be talked about all week. Targeting-ejection was the correct call. Since the rule has been in effect refs will go out of their way to call targeting-ejection. By in large, they are trying to get rid of the “kill shot” in football as they should. Looking at the targeting rule after two BYU players ejected during third quarter against Utah

[Tony (admin)]

Based on reading the rules @89ute I would say both ejections were warranted. The first one I thought maybe not previously.
