Hill did the best he could with the budget. That was well before Utah had any budget, but he didn’t come close to the Florida offer. I think Florida’s offer was over 2 Mil and I think Utah offered Urban about 1.7 to stay.

Covey couldn’t get open because many times they were putting a safety of the top of him.

Travis didn’t play well. That is a fact. Whether or not Thompson would have done worse isn’t the question. If your QB ends up with an QBR rating of 18 then he didn’t play well. And while the receivers couldn’t always get open there were two plays that…[Read more]

I’m going to disagree with you on the O-line play.

They were responsible for causing us to settle for a field goal on the second turnover. Self inflicted penalties backed us up. They were also pretty poor blocking when the defense ran a stunt. Too many times had an O-line guy standing around trying to figure out who he was supposed to block.…[Read more]

40-32 Utes

Utah won’t be able to stop Goff. What they need to do is limit the number of big plays they allow to Goff. Right now he’d 19 of 26 for passes that went 20+ yards in the air. He’s going to make some of those because he can just make the throw where it’s perfect. What Utah needs to do is eliminate the ones where coverage was blown or man is…[Read more]

I don’t mind it and I’m not LDS. What I do mind is they changed the freaking words. It’s not “we’ll shout for dear old crimson” it’s FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!!! I guess you could say they are shouters not fighters.

Plus you know it had to burn some of their inner souls to have to sing that since I’m sure a good portion of them are BYU fans

Bye weeks stink. But if there was ever a case of the Utes beating the BYE it was this week with the jump in recognition and ranking. It also comes at a decent time in order to get Travis fully healed and Dimick back on the field. I was hoping it would be enough to get Tim Patrick healed as well but that doesn’t seem like the case.

Wow.. I am agreeing with moose.. Weird.
Absolutely correct though. Watch the pass timing wilson is dead on. Ball in the air at the right time. Kendal is about a half second late which is the difference between an easy eight yard gain and a tfl. Kendal got covey laid out a couple of times.

I posted this on another site. It is isn’t just in qb stats. First it clear to the eye that Wilson is hitting people in stride. KT is missing throws… Throwing behind receivers etc. However if you look at run stats in the usu game Wilson blows KT out of the water. Well he’s stealing from booker right? Well actually booker was averaging about…[Read more]

Travis is one case of straight stats not telling the whole picture. If you look at per Travis is at 140 and Kendal is at 132. Both are respectable but indicates very little difference. Qbr on the other hand which is slightly subjective is vastly different. However qbr more accurately reflects what we see on the field.

The O-line needs to run block better or Booker’s numbers are going to be good but no where close to 2000.
