Similar. I actually expect 70/30 run with time of possession playing the biggest role to wear them down then pull ahead in the 4th after the altitude fatigue sets in. Whitt will want TO-free play and not take too many risks, especially with Barnes in (with NJ in about 5-8 plays doing some wildcat with an occasional RPO). Passes will be short to…[Read more]

I’ll admit that I occasionally go over there, but I actually have all the sports categories unchecked (so only travel, business, misc is left). But I also delight that my work computer has no problem with ute forums but for CB, it’s even uglier and harder to use, so essentially blocked (like white page with individual links to a post). Jefe keeps…[Read more]

Does Vegas hear things and change the line or do people hear things, the betting shifts one direction, so Vegas then adjusts the line to try to balance out their risk? (honestly, I don’t know – don’t really keep track of odds and how it all works)

I think we’ve seen Barnes with some very specific constraints put around him in the past. It will be interesting to see what he can do as temporary QB1 with some of those constraints lifted.

I think USC will start out 6-0 and get all the love and attention. Then they will go 2-4 over their last 6 games which is a buzzsaw of a schedule.

Unpopular opinion: I would much rather sit Rising and Kuithe for 3 games to help us win the final Pac12 season than risk it all for some pre-conference victories even if it means that we start the season 0-2.

I think our main placekicker this year will be Cole Becker, who is a transfer from Colorado.

Overall pretty decent stats:

2022: 11-13 FG — 20-21 Extra Points

2021: 14-20 FG — 25-25 Extra Points

Here’s one location it’s confirmed: 247 – before WSU game

For Barnes, it’s his collegiate start. He was a walk-on in 2020 before earning a scholarship. He played in three games in 2021 and four contests in 2022.

It’s still fine to call him ‘walk-on Bryson Barnes’ as that’s where he started. He wasn’t ranked in the 2020 recruiting class and had…[Read more]

The strengths that got him to be the #2 QB on a top 15 team in the nation. If he wasn’t good enough to be there, he wouldn’t be.

Man I’m really happy now that I was able to talk down the price of the home opener with the person I bought them from. Hopefully this is just a smoke screen. I am a firm believer we need Cam healthy in order to win Florida. I do not think we can depend on the ground game to win this one.

Welcome to SLC! You’ll have a great time. Here’s some tips for the stadium:

1- Arrive 1.5hrs ahead of kickoff and feel free to bring some drinks with you to our tailgate lots to the southeast of the stadium (on Guardsman Way). Be sure to drink all that you can, because no alcohol is sold inside of the stadium. Security lines can be long, so I w…[Read more]

For purely selfish reasons, I am happy. I live in the Midwest, so this will bring some Utah games closer to me. On the other hand, I was not glad to see the Pac-12 die. But after USC and UCLA left, it was never going to be the same. Back when they announced their departure, I selfishly thought it would be cool if Utah went to the Big XII.

So I…[Read more]

Thanks for the offer man. Right now I’m trying to get non-standing room only seats, as I would prefer to sit down. Plus most non-standing room seats are going for 45-50 dollars more right now.

That’s a good point. When is that going to be announced? I assume a couple of days beforehand.

I agree that anyone thinking we will dominate ANY conference is certifiable. I don’t think any team dominates any conference almost ever. Even SEC teams have up and down years (sometimes that floor is still pretty high) but still struggle in some individual games.

I wouldn’t say we even dominated the PAC the last 2 years. Yes, we won the CCG, but…[Read more]

Partial Share Down South

Mention Utah gets a full share out of the gate while they have to wait a few years.
