I’m not defending calling the TO. I’m defending his general decision making which was a pretty badass game plan. We can be mad about that one call, in the moment or later, but it was not the thing that lost the game. Giving up 10 points in 2 minutes lost the game. 

Also, you are distilling the whole game down to one call. 

The point of my post about Blackmon is that you can’t blame the game on the time out call. There were a number of plays that could have swung the game. 

Hell, if Fotu falls on that fumble early in the game, and we pin Washington deep instead of giving them the ball back on Utah’s side of…[Read more]

Ok, this explanation from the presser makes more sense than the immediate postgame interview. Bad decision obviously, but can’t fault him for the intention to be aggressive. It was a good game plan overall. Gut punch for sure. 

I totally agree with this and like you said, it is an honor. Too bad it just so happened to be when the least honorable potus in history is in office.

Um, it’s cool that the team got to visit the White House. Too bad they didn’t get to go the year before instead though…

IMO it is on Huntley. He will get it soon though, he is just still too slow making a decision now. Experience matters. Next year he’ll do better and we’ll go back to just false start penalties

Also random amusing stat, Huntley’s completion % last game? 53%.

I mean, UW probably wins but I can’t bring myself to pick against the Utes so I picked us by 7.

The reason I do maintain some hope is that I do think Utah matches up favorably against UW. Yes, they have a big mean D line, but our O line actually matches up better with that style than against the style of a defense like WSU’s. If Utah is to win…[Read more]

I also have one (free) ticket if someone wants it.

I approve this message.

Can you imagine if we had played a P5 school instead of SJSU or Fresno or whoever we played this year and lost?

We’d need two wins in two games to go bowling and fans would be rioting. 

I agree with the fans bit, but I don’t think it will happen here because fans are too unrealistic in their expectations. 

Goal #1 is to go bowling every…[Read more]

I would keep an eye on stub hub as it gets closer to the game. You should be able to get tix for great prices for a November night game.

I don’t know how we can yet judge the effectiveness of Taylor’s system until we  have a functional O line. No play, good or bad, has time to develop if there is zero time. 

Very interesting indeed. But the problem I have with this take is that, unless I’m missing something, it doesn’t really take into account game flow/momentum/down and distance situations. It sounds frankly absurd to hear Utah shouldn’t run the ball more even with improved O line play. 

I agree with this negative. RIP sack Lake City. Positive would be Huntley earlier on, but the shine has worn off a bit lately for me. Maybe our Gay guy. 

When Covey comes back from his mission he will:
1) transfer to tds fulfilling their dreams
2) be fat and slow
3) be Huntley’s favorite target next year
