So California is at fault for not allowing athletes to be taken advantage of?

So, it’s ok for Saban to make 10 million a year and the athletes nothing?

Give me a break. Be smarter than this. This is another example of knowing a system is broken and doing nothing until it’s too late.

Unregulated capitalism. This is a republican’s wet dream.

This. College football. This is what republicans want for America.

That’s too many teams. It will look like:

Utah
Arizona
Arizona State
Stanford
Cal
Washington State
Oregon State
SDSU
Fresno St
UNLV
UCLA
Colorado or Colorado State.

There is no need to go bigger. You just add smaller markets, more mouths to feed which equals less money per school.

You can easily leave out BYU. They don’t bring a tv market, they aren’t easy to work with, their beliefs suck and are always wrong, their fanbase is dying off, their userbase gets smaller and smaller every year the more and more that comes out about them.

That corp will always have a presence in Utah due to how much money they have, but they…[Read more]

Nah. That hate, for me, is this:

Boise St went undefeated in 2004. In 2003 and 2002, they went 13-1 and 12-1. Yet no one talked about them. Crickets when it came to Boise St. Why? Because they don’t play anybody. Their SOS was never even close to being strong enough to talk about them breaking the BCS.

Utah? Utah scheduled up. Every damn year.…[Read more]

And Oregon State. The PAC-12 wanted to get rid of Larry Scott and Oregon State was the remaining holdover that led to a few more years of him being the commissioner.

USC could end up with 3 losses and in the Big 10 title game. They might have the easiest conference schedule out of Ohio State, Michigan, Penn St, Oregon, and Washington.

But their OOC is insane. Typical USC. Schedule up, lose, wonder why they aren’t talked about nationally.

I’m so tired of the byu argument that the PAC-12 was some terrible conference.

The Big 12 has always been as bad, if not worse. The only difference between the Big 12 and the PAC-12 is that the Big 12 was easy enough for Oklahoma and/or Texas to go undefeated/one loss every year and get into the playoff, whereas the PAC-12 was a lot better in…[Read more]

Yes…and no. I am grateful for the PAC-12. And I do have some excitement about being in the Big 12.

BUT, we are helping the Big 12 more than they are helping us. The Big 12 is about to die and for these teams in there to act all but hurt that we are over the top excited to be joining…when we will be the team that brings the Big 12 the most…[Read more]

Utah every year: We lost our best RB ever!

Utah every fall: We now have our best RB ever!

I think we will be ok. We may not have a RB better than Moss or Jackson, but they will be damn good because they always are.

Oh. My. God. The Oklahoma State fear in this fanbase is amazing. It’s impressive.

We rushed for more yards per game than Oklahoma State did last year, in a tougher conference and with no passing game. OSU lost to South Alabama and UCF and Iowa State. If you are physical with them, they shut down. They aren’t bad. Not at all.

But all this “Utah…[Read more]

Man, with how much easier our schedule is this year, we should expect a lot less injuries.

Look at 2024:

FCS/G5 Teams: Southern Utah, Utah State, Houston, BYU, UCF

P5 teams that hope to go bowling: Baylor, ASU, TCU, Colorado, Iowa State

Hope to Be Ranked teams: Oklahoma State, Arizona

Compared to last year:

FCS/G5: Weber State
Hope to go…[Read more]

I agree. I’m ok with Utah being left out and going back and reforming the PAC conference with western teams and creating a collegiate playoff. No need to keep up with the Joneses. Let’s go back to college football.

Don’t be sick of government. Be sick of right wing government that wants to legislate every little thing you do. Those are the real fuckers. Stop voting for Republicans, especially mormon republicans. These are the people doing these things.

9-4 UCLA who was ranked #9 after beating us? Yeah. They were better than Oklahoma State.

And Florida…they had Anthony Richardson, who better than any player Oklahoma State has, they recruit much better than Oklahoma State does, they play in a much tougher than Oklahoma State was, it was the first game of the year and we were in the road.

So, y…[Read more]

Man, if they are 4-5 round picks…they could have made more money at Utah and had more chances to be drafted higher.

Ohio State, Oregon State, Utah, Florida State, Utah, Oklahoma.

But yeah. You hold onto Arizona. Where are your dozens of examples from this last year?

Playing Utah State in Logan is not a road trip.

The amount of disrespect this Utah team is getting boggles me.

I’m excited for this fall. The Big 12 is going to learn the hard way not to disrespect Whitt.

And if they want to know what that’s like, they can go ask Joe Glenn.

Every team out there is screwed if their QB goes down. Go look at this last bowl season.

Totally agree. What Big 12 team has done better than Utah the last 5 non COVID seasons?

And Utah’s “down” year was rife with injuries.

And everyone’s beloved Oklahoma State? They went 10-4 last year. One less loss than Utah at 8-5.

And Utah had their 3/44th string QB the whole freaking year.

The way people are down playing Utah…we…[Read more]
