Wow. Interesting viewpoint and numbers to back it up. Seems every year it takes us a few games to get in rhythm and find our identity on offense and defense. A lot comes down to leadership and a great QB. We are a totally different team when Rising is on the field.

Colorado is proof you can’t win with portal players.New players every year don’t know the offense and defense. Recruit and develop is still the focus of top teams (Utah). The portal can provide depth and fill a weakness.

We haven’t played a conference game yet. We are playing in a conference where we have a chance every year to make the playoffs.

Difference is size. We don’t have that big bruiser that can get an extra couple of yards. Mitchell doesn’t seem to have size. We have speed and when Rising is on the field that speed becomes more of a factor.

Bottom line is with Rising speed is more important. Wilson on the field we need power running game. The offense is built for Rising let…[Read more]

I believe they were playing a 4-3 on defense. Barton Reid Fotu were in at the same time. Could be wrong.

Go Aggies!! I always root for the Aggies unless they play us.

Heat could play a factor. 90 + degrees tomorrow!! Depth could come in to play. Both lines will get tested. Baylor is used to the heat plus humidity. It played a factor last year in Waco. Will that affect the offense or defense more? We are much better offensively than last year. Bring your sombreros tomorrow. Go Utes

Wow interesting stats Yergie. Hopefully they are setting up teams to concentrate on the TE and give the WR more room and 1 on 1 coverage. Singer and Parks have the speed to go deep. Big plays Saturday. 🤞

Nice post aloha. Nice to hear some baseball talk. I was a huge baseball fan until the strike . Haven’t watched much since.i started coaching my grandsons babe ruth team a couple years ago and it put the spark back in me. I will check out the padres. Haven’t seen any padres games. Thanks

I agree loyter. Why go at all. Seems much easier to support your team from the couch. These damn message board guys should just find something better to do than root for their team. Who cares if the stadium is empty at kickoff.

I’m sure the players would much rather have the stadium empty so they don’t have to put up with all that noise.

Yes south end zone was easy last game. If you don’t wait until 15 minutes before game time when all the tailgaters come at the same time. Then it can be 10-15 wait. Moral of the story get there early and beat the rush!! Grab a hot dog and eat in your seat before kickoff. Go utes

My suggestion for the tailgaters is to fire off an air horn for the 45 minute warning. Start packing up. 30 minute horn to get the stadium. It’s interesting how the east side sees the west side. I sit on the west side and it looks pretty full but hard to tell. The east side from the west side view looks half full at kickoff. Spread the word.

Those teams ahead of us are really good. Being 11 is a huge compliment to our program. All those teams have better recruits, more money and more NIL than we do.

The blue bloods are all better than ever with more separation from the rest. Our coaching, culture and work ethic is awesome. Proud to be a Ute and to be mentioned with the top programs.

Honestly it shouldn’t matter. It’s a reflection of 1 idiots opinion with no affiliation to an entire school or fan base.

Chill it’s one game. Baylor will provide a better test.

Thank goodness it’s just a few mentally unstable people that hide behind a fictional name and keyboard. Every fan base has them. Welcome to social media.

I agree with the fact we have struggled in the past against dual threat QBs. Seems we improved every game against Caleb Williams last two years. Contained pass rush keeps them in the pocket. Hope our tackles can get a push up the middle.

Im with you Omaha. I’m looking forward to see some new teams. I wish we were still in the Pac12 but we’re not.

I choose to look forward not back. I think we have a better chance to get to the playoffs every year from the Big12. Basketball will be much better for the players who will play in packed arenas on the road. That will help rec…[Read more]
