2008 National Champ

I agree, give them their credit. They’ve beaten two 3-1 teams and Jay Hill has that D humming.

If you believe that there’s a chance of Utah getting a 2nd Big-12 CFP bid while not winning the CCG, you want them to beat ranked teams along the way. There’s no guarantee K-State makes the CCG so it’s better for the teams on Utah’s schedule to beat…[Read more]

Yes. No one performs at peak every time out. Great teams still manage to pull those games out. Good teams sometimes do.

with Rising today Utah wins by 30? really, a guy who can’t grip the ball was going to blow out OSU?

This boards relationship with Rising is reaching Battered Wife Syndrome levels.

The next time a true competitor forgets any slight, real or imagined, will be the first.

The only danger next week lies in how well Utah is able to recover from today’s game.

I don’t remember anyone credible saying that Utah couldn’t handle the physicality of the Big-12. The discussions I remember were based on what we saw in the 4th quarter which is how Utah’s secondary would hold up against the wide open offenses of the Big-12.

And Bernard makes it happens. That kid is making me love him move every game and I didn’t think it could get any better after the Ohio State rose bowl

I’d have liked to see Utah just keep pounding the ball after the Gilman pick and, if necessary, kick the FG to go up 10 getting the ball back to start the 2nd half. But take that with a grain of salt because I’d have kept my mouth shut if he’d hit Kuithe in stride.
