“With each team able to do whatever it wants the team that can pass will win”

Not exactly. As long as Utah controls the ball and scores, it doesn’t really matter if they are throwing the ball.
That said, being super predictable usually results in stops, even by the worst defenses.

I don’t have a problem with running the ball. I have a problem…[Read more]

I don’t think our “QB room” would be any better this year had Cam moved on. There would not have been a savior in the transfer portal and we already know a lot about the QBs already in our system.

As long as Cam isn’t stringing the team along and is actually playing, why wouldn’t you want him back if he helps you win games? We only have players…[Read more]

I must’ve missed the thread where people were rude to OnlyU.

Hopefully OnlyU finds their way back here, in spite of the idiots.

Their offense has looked better than ours… but their defense is apparently terrible.

Someone needs to ask Kyle Whittingham these questions…

As I understand it, the trucks are just 6 month leases.

Is this going to be a one-time thing, or are they planning to do the trucks every year?

It has been 5+ weeks of hearing that he is ‘close’ and might play. My definition of ‘close’ must be different than yours.

I ‘support’ them as well and wish them nothing but the best. However, I don’t support all the claims propagated by those ‘in the know’ about what was truly happening.

Why have we heard with every passing week that Cam was close to playing? What a bunch of baloney. Time to move on from this for the season.

I was going to say that it would be terrible for Cam’s first game back to be against a good team like USC. Then I remembered that USC’s defense sucks… so… maybe?

“I think we handled it pretty well.”

The offense scored what was effectively a garbage-time touchdown. I don’t think that is handling it pretty well.

The defense is great. I wish people would stop making excuses about the offense.

Also known as a realist 🙂

I saw that some folks were eating gator for the Florida game.

Anyone here going to eat some beaver for today’s game? 😉

Except the UCLA game isn’t the only game where we’ve seen this kind of play calling.

I am getting an impression from some people on this board that seem to say “We won, so it must’ve been a good strategy.”

Kyle Whittingham is a great coach. I should be like @proudute and give up “trying to understand exactly what he thinks”.

However, it bothers me to no end that the offense has reverted to the ‘run up the middle’ approach and…[Read more]

I still don’t understand why people want to blame the offensive woes on Johnson. Sure, he is limited in some ways; new quarterbacks usually experience a learning curve.

The play calling on offense has been pretty terrible. How can Johnson prove that he can throw the ball if you call ‘run up the middle’ almost every down?

“If Rose was healthy” – Is there a reason for this optimism around Rose? We’ve never even seen him play.

We are all happy to be 4-0.

The team has been pretty lucky. Yes, the defense is fantastic. However, the offense has been terrible.

I think a reasonable fan can see that the teams we have been playing have made a lot of mistakes. When we start playing teams that don’t make mistakes, we better hope Kyle and Company can do better than run up the…[Read more]

I didn’t realize that targeting could be called on a hit that wasn’t against the head. So, that was news to me while watching the game.

This is the way. The only way to beat a stacked box is to run it up the middle every play 😉.

This is my biggest concern about the defense. Utah’s pass coverage has looked really bad at times, especially deep. I think as soon as they face a good QB who can throw downfield, Utah will be in trouble if the offense can’t sustain drives and score points.

I am not convinced that Oregon State is that team. I am not saying Utah will for sure win,…[Read more]
