2008 National Champ

I saw that he threw two passes for 4 yards and both went for TD’s. Were they running him in for RPO at the goal line?

You don’t like the rainbow?

Are we sure it was Harlan who wrecked the conference stuff? By all accounts, it was Randall as part of the Pac-12 Presidents that was clueless when it came to valuation when it came to negotiating the new TV deal. I can’t find the quote but most of the other schools blame Randall for coming up with the 50 MM or bust stance Kliavkoff took with…[Read more]

Boise and Utah were trying to occupy the same space in the mid 2000’s so it was natural for some animosity to build. Petersen owning Whitt didn’t help matters.

Until this year, Boise had owned Oregon also so I’ve always seen Boise as someone that could be a good rival based on games instead of the fake ones like Colorado.

so their injuries in the game don’t count?

Having all conference champions get an autobid would quickly reverse this trend of 18-20 team conferences and P2. Utah could go back to a regional conference with historical references as joining with schools in West Virginia and Florida would no longer be viewed as necessary to be included.

Go to 24 teams immediately and stop with all the…[Read more]

Based on last night’s rankings, 9-1 parochial school would get the 12 seed. 5-8 is not even in the cards at this point.

Don’t take it personally. I’ve been of the opinion for decades that until EVERY school has an equal opportunity at earning a National Championship – like how it’s done in every sport at every level except for FBS – it’s just a beauty contest and deserves no more respect. So I root for chaos, chaos and more chaos.

The Big 12 is just the latest…[Read more]

Florida (the school) has that effect on people. Nowhere near the success of Florida State or Miami but sure acts like the football world revolves around them.

Never expect consistency out of someone who is making an irrational argument

I’ve never met Harlan or Whittingham but it sure looks from 30,000 feet as if there is rot at the top of the program.

Let’s look at the luminaries who have beaten top 5 Head Coach and the GOAT of Utah Head Coaches:

Brent Brennan, career G5 HC in 1st year at Arizona (38-54, .413 career record)
Kenny Dillingham, 2nd year as head coach ever (11-11,…[Read more]

It would certainly prove everything Utah fan has been saying about the Big 12 as far as national relevance and perceived level of competition if their champion was ranked behind the MW AND AAC.

I will say that the TV execs who “advise” the committee would be more likely to put 2 loss Colorado in because of the eyes Deion brings than any of Iowa…[Read more]

You’re right. Eddie George and Byron Hanspard. Talk about team overshadowing best individual player.

For everyone who believes that you need a 230 pound bruiser to run the ball, Troy Davis was 5’8, 185 and ran against stacked boxes since he was all Iowa State had.

His brother went to Iowa State also as a running back but couldn’t put up the same #’s. But then again, who could?

I’m missing why a new OC working under Whitt would run an offense Scalley wants. More likely he will run the offense in the manner that the Head Coach wants.

He has the opportunity to reset the program. But if he’s just going to make cosmetic changes, I’d rather someone else took over. Because I don’t think any of us found 2024 to be up to his standard and I’m confident no one wants a repeat to happen in 2025.

Troy Davis putting up 2k on a 3-8 team was my first introduction

Is there a guarantee that Whittingham will carry on the Whittingham success?

inserting himself on the field of play before the game had ended to throw a tantrum was enough for me.
