If this is true than this season rests on the coaches for not shoring up the offense transfers during the offseason.

I think someone besides, JaQuindonis going to need to step up the season. I just don’t see him getting healthy this season.

Yes our offense is really that bad in it’s current state. If by some chance all the starters that are out do come back then maybe it will be better. Until then it’s pretty bad.

The reality is the current team does not include Cam Rising or Brant Kuithe. Plus a handful of other starters. The team in its current state is probably not going to win the pac-12. Hopefully Cam does indeed come back and his lights out. Utah at full strength with all its starters definitely has a chance to win the pac 12. But we really need…[Read more]

Yep great job by the team. Came away with a win that’s all that matters right now. Same goal next week. Find a way to win and get Cam and Kuiyhe healthy.

I’m not sure we can pound the rock. At least tonight that is. None of the running backs look like they are stepping up.

Seems like sound reasoning to me. As always I hope for Utah to win every game but 8-4 is a pretty realistic guess.

Well that is fantastic news! I hope it holds true.

I just like to temper my expectations for an upcoming season until I see the team play a couple games. No doom and gloom from me but I’m not drinking the kool-aid yet.

Let’s just hope the defense can score 14 points a game. We may need it the season.

I don’t think many people would disagree with you that we can beat Florida without Kuithe. It’s just the fact that Cam probably won’t play that has everyone worried.

I’m just going to assume that neither Kuithe or Rising are going to be fully recovered this year so that I’m not disappointed when they aren’t. It just seems like rushing ACL recoveries never go as planned.

I’ve lost any hope that we will ever see a dominant WR group at Utah. I’m not sure I care that much though. I’ve been happy these last few years with great Tight Ends and Running Backs.

Looking out of shape.

Totally agree with your thoughts on Cam and Tavion. We will not win the conference with the way the offense played tonight. Watching Cam zero in on Kuithe those first couple quarters was disconcerting. Holding out hope given how the team turned it around last year but I still have no idea if this team is actually better than last years team.

I just don’t think Utah has the athletes this year at defensive end and linebacker. Still think Utah can be a top 15 team just no way a top 5.

Actually I think Cam could be the love child of Wilson and Wynn. He is closer to Wilson in athleticism and durability but seems to have a football mind closer to Wynn.

Normally I am giddy for the season to start. It has been a weird feeling this week. I’m sure I’ll be really excited tomorrow around 3:00 but for whatever reason the lead up to the first game has been dull/muted this year.

….And I’m worried our defense is a bit undersized this year.

Normally the better team wins. That would be Stanford. I’d love to be surprised with an upset though.
