Phillips played a very good game. I think you are talking about the play where he missed a tackle on the west sideline leading up to the missed FG. On that play the WR was catching a short pass on the sideline with Phillips over the top. As Phillips closed, he played to tip the pass and missed. Given his spot, I would guess that the coaches…[Read more]

They might, however… They sit behind Houston and Cincinnati who are better fits. Next now that the Big 12 have lost all their big name schools (3) to the SEC and only have the bottom teams left, they are doomed to become a mid major. They can look to become the top mid major. So, yes they can get in, but the future is to fight it out with…[Read more]

Just realized Gary Anderson is a volunteer analyst with Weber. That could be the source for well defined blitzes.

Also to consider… Weber is following a pattern that Utah State took earlier. USU was a pretty good team that was well coached. When we moved to the Pac, USU would play out of their minds against the Utes. It was their super bowl. They would give us emotionally everything they had while we try to play vanilla and cycle thru our roster. USU,…[Read more]

No doubt Whitt does not like turnovers. He has a long history of letting someone sit for a fumble. In a game that we did not need him to win, it is possible a teaching moment was there. Curry also had only a few carries and Thomas had half the carries. I did think the numbers would be more balanced for this game. I think we will drift soon to…[Read more]

I was expecting good cover teams, hopefully we will still see it. Weber does have an awesome return guy and when we encounter a return guy with multiple return TDs in the Pac, I believe we need to adjust. Kicking away from him, corner kicks, kick short and high to the 25 are all options. A routine kick to the specialist is what Weber is hoping…[Read more]

I probably would not have made it thru the 80s if I had not first gone thru the late 50s and 60s. I always expected a flip to come again. Oddly, I don’t expect another flip, an occasional WTF upset yes but even that will not be anytime soon.

Sorry my humor was missed. This list is all screwed up. I don’t think it is possible for more than a few from the other schools to make the 2 deep at the U. None would have any chance to start at Utah. The difference will be obvious next week.

Ticketmaster tickets are too expensive currently. They seem to be high on their team. If we are lucky, UofA will beat them well enough to make several hundred not want to go and give us better opportunities. Go UofA.

I favor the northwest corner where the visiting team comes and goes.

I have not transferred my ticket my son’s account, but I assume and expect that the wallet does not require a connection and is stored on the phone. I already know connectivity at the stadium on game days is iffy.

In addition,
I am thinking Jackson is too good to go missing, may not be talked about until he walks out on to the field. Bam might be a better replacement than folks think. Any of the 4 RBs can jump up and surprise. We have a lot of TEs but at some point Yassmin will get noticed. Kaufusi will fill in well at DT and his uncommon height will be…[Read more]

I am hoping for Jackson in QBwildcat.

We have seen that thought before that the Y dominated the MWC. I seem to remember that up until Utah left, Utah, TCU, and the Y each had an equal number of championships and CSU had 1 fewer. It was pretty much 4 teams equally sharing the titles. The Y was dominate before McBride came in in the early 90s, they just need to update thoughts with…[Read more]

I remember the same about Garett Bolles. Struggled at first with quick DEs but he had the physical gifts. Clearly, Bam is taking much longer but it may be possible because we have seen it before. My hope is it is for real and is on a roll by the time we play WSU. Just wait and see, it is as simple as maybe, maybe not.

Unless ND joins the Big 12 (not going to happen) they will become one of the best mid majors. In that role the still have almost any G5 team that they can draw in. The Y will have a lot of competition to get in. If the Y did get in that could still be good for us in that they will become focused on their own conference championship, need…[Read more]

I noted that March is not the punter anymore, hopefully an upgrade. Full back? I wonder how many plays will use a FB? I hope we will soon wonder why the wildcat QB is not on the depth chart. I wish we published the special teams. I am especially interested in the punt cover and kickoff cover teams because that is a lot of insight about who is…[Read more]
