Holladay Ute replied to the topic Adjustments, or not in the forum Football 2 months, 3 weeks ago
This was driving me crazy too: they blitzed all night and it seemed like we never had an outlet pass. We certainly never had an RB screen pass available. It felt like we had the TE slant occasionally and that worked a couple of times, but then they figured out it was the only thing we were doing to counter their blitz. Maybe Isaac Wilson just…[Read more]

This is so true. It’s a win if we don’t lose yards on a punt return. Crazy.

Redshirt sophomore w/ a good amount of experience. And like you said, he’s just an excellent QB.
I agree w/ what you say…under the assumption that Isaac Wilson is our QB for the rest of the season. If we get Cam Rising back, then there’s no way we lose three more games. It’s too early in the season to say that Arizona isn’t one of the best…[Read more]

I think we’re overreacting a little bit. This looks like a similar conference to what we experienced for most of the Pac-12 era. Plenty of good teams but no great teams. So if you don’t bring it, there’s a good chance you’re gonna lose b/c of the conference parity. It also means that we probably still have a good shot at the B12 title game…[Read more]

I’m kind of blown away that they talked about “RB by committee” for so long. Basically until a week or two ago. How could they not see that Bernard was our only capable option? It feels a lot like how the coaching staff picked Charlie Brewer over Cam Rising a few years ago. I have major questions about our ability to assess talent on the…[Read more]

The good news is that I think Utah will respond well to this. We definitely have a very talented team when we’re healthy. Utah just somehow lays an egg every time we get hyped up in the rankings, etc. Historically, we have been very resilient and respond well to losses like this. And the reality is that our team plays better when they are…[Read more]

Are you guys crazy? Have you watched this season? Has Isaac Wilson shown enough to give us reason to be excited for the future? Yes. He shows a lot of promise. Cam Rising took us to two Rose Bowls. Am I frustrated that Cam took completely unnecessary hits that increased the risk of injury? Way freaking frustrated. So yeah, part of this…[Read more]

What’s frustrating is that we all knew what we had w/ Glover (which is not much) based on last season. Quinton Ganther has been fairly disappointing. It feels like we’ve lost a bit of our RB identity under his watch. And he hasn’t recruited anybody good.

Cam Rising. He’s such a legend and I love him, but man. We grinded through last year waiting for him to come back…only so that he could continually take hits this year that he should’ve been avoiding. The coaching staff clearly coached him to do that. Finally caught up to him against a bad team at home w/ a 23-0 lead on 1st down on their…[Read more]

I feel like they were a little arrogant heading into this game. Playing against a good team (possibly a top 25 team) w/ your true freshman QB. You should kick the FG on a good opening drive and let your defense play w/ the lead. Instead, we call the same exact stupid play that we called on 3rd & short.
Also, I was frustrated listening to…[Read more]

I don’t want to tell anybody what to think, but I would love to share my perspective. I was born, raised, and still live in Salt Lake City. I have personally known a handful of players and coaches (mostly all members of the church) from both schools. I’ve been a diehard Ute since I was a little kid. I am a very active member of the church.…[Read more]
