And they’ll probably lose next weekend as well. ASU is looking like the real deal.

I wonder what the line is going to be when Colorado goes to Kansas next weekend? The Buffs seem ripe for an upset.

Both things could be true.

It would not surprise me one bit if BYU tanked the remaining games in their schedule. This should be their third loss at it is.

It happens.

Well. KSU spit the bit and is out of the Big 12 race. Hopefully, ASU continues to play like this and hands BYU their second loss next week.

I’ve been saying for a while that Utah’s beat option is for Whitt to resign and turn over the HC job to Scalley. However, I don’t think he’ll do that because he has a lot of pride and doesn’t want to depart via the back door. Can he fix what ails Utah’s football team? I’d like to think so but I doubt it. I get the impression that this version…[Read more]

14. If Utah replayed it’s full schedule starting tomorrow, the only likely win is the game versus SUU. I hardly watched any of today’s game because I was in Logan watching Utah State dismantle Hawaii 55-10. I’d favor the Aggies head to head versus Utah if the game was played next Saturday.

12. Two years removed from winning the second of two PAC titles, Utah is in contention for worst P4 program in the nation. Those Rising-led victories feel like they happened last century.

Can’t believe it’s happening. Like a slow motion semi coming at us sideways…Whitt will be here next season. I hope he learns from what’s happened the last two years. If next year is similar to this one, he has to resign for the benefit of his legacy. If Utah is forced to push him out, ala Bobby Bowden, his legacy will be irrevocably tarnished.

It’s not my money, but I think it’s a massive mistake to give that much money to an 18 year old freshman. I mean, how many times have we seen 5 star recruits in both football and basketball do absolutely nothing in their first year in college? It happens like clockwork. It would be funny as shit if this dude goes to BYU and then zilch…betcha…[Read more]

The problem is that the only real breakout game he’s had this season is the one versus Utah.

Whatever the case Tony, that’s crazy money for a guy that hardly played. Think of what Utah could have done with that cash if they would have moved on from him after the 2023 Rose Bowl.

The good thing is that the lion’s share of Utah’s current NIL will be freed by the subtraction of Rising and Kuithe. For example, Rising made $1M in 2023 and something similar this season (he had the potential to make over $1.5M had he stayed healthy). Kuithe’s NIL this season was $421K. I found both of these figures just doing a cursory…[Read more]

He had a great 2023 and is having a mediocre to bad 2024. Is he better than anyone we have on the roster now? Probably, but remember that in Zona he’s got a Top 15 draft pick to throw to and it still hasn’t helped him much. As someone put it succinctly in another thread, he was superhuman versus Utah but has sucked against everyone else. Keep…[Read more]

It’ll be our little secret…

I’ve always been leery of teams that don’t have the capacity to gain yards on the ground. Probably ensues from my bad experiences with the Dan Marino-led Miami Dolphins.

Hopefully the paisan will light the Buffs up.
