I’m 82 years old now and have a hard time attending games, even though I love the excitement of being there in person.

When I was younger and attending football games with season tickets, It really ticked me off when the game started and there were still fans inching down the row and blocking views of some great plays as they went by. Then there…[Read more]

Do you mean “likely” or unlikely we will experience injuries to the LB group? Yes, I don’t want to say likely, but the LB job is being in on tackles a high percentage of plays.
Since there is still a question mark for many new players, I can’t give the group an A-, just a solid B, based on what we know right now without seeing a live game.

I guess it may be best to wait and see what shakes out as far as TV for Utah games. I agree with others that it is hard to believe the Big 12 conference games will not be on highly viewed networks like ESPN, FOX, etc.. Hope the University comes out with a solid TV viewing schedule for us fans in the next few weeks.

I appreciate all the information and comments. I have internet and phone with Comcast as well, so have to juggle all that in switching completely to streaming. But does look inviting to go with the bundle of ESPN+, Disney, and Hulu, as long as I can also get other common sports channels and local channels.

I looked at the Ute official website…[Read more]

I am a big fan of Britain, and always check to see if the Eagles are on television each week. Its a treat to see him return the punts, knowing he may go for a long gain or touchdown.

The video with him practicing with the other NFL players really shows he looks like a jr high school player amongst college age players. He has dealt with this all…[Read more]

What happened to Brandon Rose? I think he should have the inside track for QB #2 in Fall camp.
Also, I think the chances of winning the conference championship depends on having a bigger running back that can get the tough yards on 3rd down, as well as great QB play.

Not one of the current running backs is a 220 lb. plus back with a history of…[Read more]

I hate to admit there was a time that I was a BYU fan, during the time that Eldon “The Phantom” Fortie was playing. I listened to the games on the radio and there was something magical about the how Eldon could dodge his way through would be tacklers.

About the time I started attending the “U”, there was a game between Utah and BYU. I was just…[Read more]

I liked the way he prepared for the game and venue that he was reporting on. He could describe information on the school, the venue and surrounding area, and coaches and players. When he was assigned to a Utah game, he would describe the wonderful mountains and surrounding area that the “U” campus was located on. Rest in peace Bill.

I thought they tried Miki Suguturaga once or twice last year on short yardage or goal line offense. I agree that there wasn’t anyone of the RBs that would be considered a strong short yardage guy, so if they can’t get someone in the portal, then maybe try one of the TE like Miki or Kuithe.

I think the Utes were improved this year and competitive. Not a good road team, otherwise we may have made the big dance with a few road wins and a better showing in the tournament.

I would like to see them play a few more games, and get a little extra experience for Keita and Lovering. Also, a the exposure for Carlson may help his pro…[Read more]

I remember the Air Force Academy football coach Fisher Deberry created a Hornets Nest when he stated they didn’t have enough black atheletes to compete with the other schools.

One troubling part of Keita’s play so far is his fumbling of some passes, like he doesn’t expect it. They are basically running plays for him that if he were more surehanded he would have at least 3 more baskets per game. He goes against taller opponents and gets doubled, but he has to be more tenacious and sticky fingered when a pass comes near…[Read more]

I agree about Smith getting the starting nod and the majority of the minutes. Its a bonus that Worster is a seasoned/experienced guard that provides a lot of depth. Keita has to get better at guarding without fouling, but as they keep getting better and feeding him down low, its hard to keep him out of the starting lineup.

I will be surprised…[Read more]

I went frugal on my last comcast renewal and don’t have the extra espn channels like espn+, news, U, so I will wait and hope that most games are on the basic channels. Darn, this change in conferences is affecting my pocketbook.

Great win! It looked like they were going to give it away in the last minute, but Keita made a great defensive play. It looked like the coaching staff has figured out offensive plays that utilize our size. Also, hope they keep up the same defensive effort going into pac12 play. Love that the Utes have ended the BYU winning streak and are…[Read more]
