Funnest basketball game I’ve been to in a long time. Utah was clamps on D and executed the offense pretty well.

IT’S OVER! UTAH WINS!

81-66

11 point game…2 to play

12 point game…2 to play

21 point game…7 to play!

14 point game…10 to play…come on boys…

17 point game at the half. Me and the other 6 people here are loving it!

Up 17 (!!!) at the moment.

I’m not super optimistic. Take away the home field advantage and replace it with a neutral site and you’ve got a ~3 point USC win. Add in the fact that Utah isn’t playing as well as we were back then and I see a ~10 point USC win.

Every side is going to be the Utah side.

Here’s what I love about every soccer post: That people have to come on it and tell everyone how much they hate it. It’s funny because it only ever happens with soccer.

For example, I suspect most of us don’t really like figure skating (I know I don’t). But if someone started a post about figure skating, we would all just ignore it. You wouldn’t…[Read more]

The NFL has ties too. Soccer is the best sport on the planet and it’s not even close, and 7.5 billion people (the whole word minus the U.S.) agree. Anyway…

The USMNT is doing OK. They are the youngest team at the World Cup and only one player on the roster has played in the World Cup before. The opening game vs. Wales showed exactly what we…[Read more]

I don’t know…I still find college basketball to be entertaining. And let’s see how many thumbs down this next statement earns me: I find it infinitely more entertaining than football. There’s just too many stoppages in football…too many timeouts. Even when there’s no timeouts there’s too many stoppages. Each play takes 5 seconds, then we get 2…[Read more]

I’ll argue one point in your post, and that’s Mike Saunders. He hasn’t been terrible. He’s the best ball handler and slashing guard on the team and it isn’t even close. He doesn’t get more minutes simply because of the well-known-yet-insane man crush that coach has on Rolly Wooster, who is a poor-shooting turnover machine. This team will get a lot…[Read more]

I’m a huge Argentina fan but that was brilliantly done by Saudi Arabia.

Simple: Because you will take a proven QB with experience over a promising QB with none. The known entity is less risky than the unknown one.

Imagine what 2021 would have been if we hadn’t gone to the portal for an experienced QB (Rising) and instead we were going with promising freshman Jack Tuttle…

Sorry but I don’t get this line of thinking. Cam is a top-5-of-all-time-type QB at Utah. I want him playing for my team every minute I can get.

He’ll be gone soon enough regardless (that’s the way of things in college sports). But if he has eligibility and the desire is there, I want him back and I want him starting. The future can wait.

I haven’t seen a lot of Cam hate. I’ve seen a lot of criticism. Hate and criticism are not the same thing. I criticize my coworkers sometimes, and sometimes they criticize me, but that doesn’t mean we hate each other.

I myself have said for 3 weeks that Cam doesn’t look right. I definitely don’t hate him.

Last i think Nate Johnson should play…

Like I’ve been saying for weeks – Cam has been off his game since the injury. The last two weeks it’s been masked by playing low-quality opponents. And next week it will be masked by playing a low-quality opponent. But against a team like Oregon, the effects of his injury are glaringly obvious.

Bottom line is last night was a battle of two…[Read more]

Reports are he’s favoring his ankle, even in warmups. If he does go, he’s going to be confined to the pocket all night. If we can get pressure on him (not a sure thing given the quality of their o-line), he’s going to go down a lot.
