HoosierUte replied to the topic Air Force unveils Tokyo bombing unis in the forum Football 1 year ago
Dan Carlin has a great series called Supernova in the East about this period. Imperial Japan was terrible. I am rethinking my earlier post. My knee-jerk reaction is that the sports/war blending is always in poor taste, but we are talking about a service academy here and the Doolittle Raid was a very important and heroic effort. Too much…[Read more]

“Japanese people do go to Pearl Harbor. And watch the movie clip. And cheer at the end.” Doubt it.
Those uniforms are slick, very poor taste to market them this way though.

The guy will have played significant time in 4 college games, two of which were Rose Bowls, and faced Ohio State, Penn State, Florida, and Wazzu.

HoosierUte replied to the topic ACL surgery in the forum Football 1 year ago
Was listening to a recent Bill Riley and Sly stated that if he was a full practice participant by this Thursday (2-weeks out from game 1), he would assume that Cam isn’t playing. I tend to agree. Two weeks of live practice is a pretty short on-ramp, even for an experienced player. I am shifting focus to hoping he can be ready for league play. The…[Read more]

Did I accidentally drop into UF.net? Get it together. We are in fall camp/realignment and we are clutching our pearls about some maxi pads in the bathroom? You sure you didn’t need one?

His response “He made a bunch of great catches, and I looked over at one of our coaches and said ‘After this season, are we gonna get him?” — just when you thought this guy couldn’t be more unlikable…
Really wish there was some agency, maybe a national collegiate athletics association of some sort that had the teeth to stop this. -

I don’t know much about this guy other than he was kicked off the team at Oklahoma for participating in an armed robbery. We need help at the position and I trust our coaches.

HoosierUte started the topic Little bro copying the hand painted helmet idea? in the forum They So Poo Poo 1 year, 10 months ago
Just saw in an ESPN article about last week’s uniforms that the tds had handpainted helmets in their game last weekend. As far as I know, we are the only school that does this. Kinda cheesy for them to copy the idea, but I guess that is on brand.

HoosierUte started the topic Looking ahead at conference race. in the forum Football 1 year, 10 months ago
It’s a four-horse race for two spots in the P12 title game. I looked through the remaining schedules of the three other teams, and potential losses I see:
UCLA: Oregon, USC
USC: UCLA
Oregon: UCLA, Utah, Washington, Oregon State
It looks like the Oregon game will be a must-win, as we would lose the head-to-head tiebreaker with Oregon and UCLA…[Read more] -
HoosierUte started the topic Degenerate Gambler Post in the forum Football 2 years, 2 months ago
As a degenerate gambler, I eagerly await the release of the regular-season total wins lines every year. This season has me on the edge of putting down some serious money on the Utes to cover. Fanduel has the Utes at 8.5 at -115, most other books have us at 9 (meaning 9 wins would be a push, need 10 to win). Other lines of note:
Total Wins:

HoosierUte started the topic Rose Bowl Opening Lines in the forum Football 2 years, 9 months ago
Opened at osu -7 last night and has moved to -6.5, which means the early money came in on the Utah side. I would have thought the line would have been close to 10, but I didn’t follow osu super close.

HoosierUte started the topic What do we know about Weber St? in the forum Football 3 years ago
Out of state Ute here, I know essentially nothing about Weber States football program other than they lost in the first round of the FCS playoffs last year. What are they good at? Any player or matchup that might be somewhat interesting?

HoosierUte started the topic Rumors online of Baylor, TTech, and TCU reaching out to the PAC this am in the forum Pac-12 3 years, 1 month ago
This one has me confused. I was under the impression that Baylor and TCU would be non-starters due to the research requirements (and being religious schools). Would be interesting to see if the Pac would skip the rules to gain a major foothold in Texas though. This possibility also raises the question of who would be the 4th team to make it 16? OK…[Read more]

HoosierUte started the topic Listening to The Zone for the first time in a decade… yikes in the forum Misc 3 years, 3 months ago
Streaming The Zone for the first time in a decade hoping to get some Jazz pregame analysis. This stuff is turrible. You would barely know a game was happening tonight, its mostly erectile disfunction ads and call-ins from the doctor every 15 minutes. When not discussing penis issues it’s either random banter non-sports related or other ads. I…[Read more]

Looks like he was hit by a car while cycling in St. George. Happened 2 months ago but it’s been kept quiet until going public today. Scary stuff, I have had a few close calls while out on the bike. Watch out for cyclists everybody.

Our 2 losses are to the presumptive north/south champs for what its worth.
Tough to feel bad for Oregon, they should have won games, Colorado on the other hand is getting screwed if they beat us. - Load More
