Thanks for the clarification. Either way sounds like he might be slightly limited. I’ll take Cam at 90%.

Thanks for the info GreatfulPoke. It would be nice to see both teams at full strength.

The heat and humidity factor could be moving the line.

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic Is Rising Playing? in the forum Football 4 weeks, 1 day ago
I think the line is moving because of the heat and humidity factor. The cowboys are more acclimated to play in harsh conditions. Baylor game was similar last year. Cam should be ready to go. Is two weeks enough time for stitches in a middle finger to heal? Any doctors in the house that can answer?

I think it’s great hearing from the poke fans. It adds a lot to Ute hub and Tony our fearless leader is always a gracious host.
We all want our teams to win but at the end of the day we can sit down and have beer and be friends. Shoutout to the pokes posting and I hope when you come to Salt Lake we can make sure you have a great experience.

Down two starters is a big deal. It takes time for an o line to gel. Take advantage and pressure them early to make mistakes.

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic Utah in home vs away games in the forum Football 1 month ago
QB play is so crucial on the road. Easy for a young qb to get rattled early and make mistakes. We have seen that over and over with young QBs at home. Rising has the experience to calm the early storm and keep the crowd out of the game.

I have seen little or no blitzing the first three games. Our defense has been pretty vanilla so far. I expect to see Barton and possibly some CB or safety blitzes. Barton is like another D end size wise and can get through a RB block.
We need to get our linebackers more involved in the game plan. Barton has not stepped up his game yet. Front…[Read more]

The intensity level will be much higher for both teams.

Utah rates higher because viewers want to watch Utah play reguardless of fan base. BYU is lower because nobody outside their fan base and church affiliation want to see them play. Point is their viewership is still an advantage with church affiliation.

Nice post DB. Very well stated. Of the 17 million members worldwide they still have a number of viewers to bolster their tv audience especially if they are playing on the road against a team that has a large LDS population in that city. Tv viewing is still an advantage even if those team by church affiliation only watch a couple games a year.

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic Gundy vs Whitt press conferences in the forum Football 1 month ago
Gundy is more social and shares more opinions and emotions. Whitt is all business and keeps everything internal. Both great coaches different styles.

Face it if BYU wasn’t a church owned school and depended on Provo and surrounding area for support they would still be independent or in the mountain west.
Yes they have their hard core base of students and locals but the fact the LDS religion is world wide gives them a much larger fan base.
BYU football has had no respect nationally since t…[Read more]

Didn’t he play last game? I remember a pass being thrown to him.

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic It is suppose to be 95 degrees at game time on Saturday in the forum Football 1 month ago
The humidity can be a bigger factor. I’ve never been to Stillwater. Is the humidity there high? The Baylor game was similar heat minus the humidity. Depth will play a big role.

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic Notes from Whitt's presser in the forum Football 1 month ago
I’ll answer that for you Dallas. Game time decision. He’s the alpha dog and we’re obviously a better team when he’s in the game. Next question. I don’t think they ask the question because they know the answer.

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic Big-12 after dark – Arizona at Utah is slated for 8:15 kick on ESPN in the forum Football 1 month ago
I’m old and don’t like the 8:15 start time. You can bet the ranch I’ll be there ready to go. I’ve had this game and the BYU game marked on my calendar since the schedule came out. I’m sure the players are on the same page. Cam let it be known during media day.

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic Is L. Barton a half step slow, especially laterally? in the forum Football 1 month ago
I have thought the same thing Tony. I haven’t seen Barton blitz yet. That was a big part of his game last before he got hurt. Maybe he has been a little precautious early until he feels 100% again.

Get out the pickle juice and mustard. I’d never heard of mustard but a couple weeks ago at my grandson Ute conference game a couple of the boys were cramping and one of the moms had mustard packets. Just when you think you’ve heard it all.

Jim Vanderhoof started the topic Have found our identity after first three games? in the forum Football 1 month ago
The age old football adage : “they haven’t found their identity yet”. 2021 was power running game , tight ends and Cam making plays with his feet. Same with 2022. 2023 with Cam out we never found our identity.
2024 after three games our identity looks like “the throw game”. We don’t have a power running game and Cam is limited with running abi…[Read more]
