I strongly hope there are no signs referencing TDS whatsoever. They have absolutely nothing to do with this.

Wow. None of those top four teams should be there next week.

Even without a solid QB position, Oregon can march in to Boulder and pull off a 17-point victory. They aren’t world beaters, but they definitely don’t “suck”.

I’m enjoying this OSU Indiana game.

I could only watch that if there was a way they could both lose. Whoever loses will get the benefit of the doubt because they are playing another SEC school.

I think Cal wins easily but who knows? Wazzu seems to get a major upset almost every year.

You can save the season tix for user #70,000. 😀

Yeah. Even they should know Cal won’t be favored. I can see them picking Cal to win the game but they will definitely be underdogs.

I was skeptical of Cal early on because of the fact that they lost their last 6 of 7 last year and 5 of those games were at home. I’m a believer now. They’ve convinced me.

I too expect a 10 to 14 point Ute victory in a game that is probably still in doubt going into the 4th.

We certainly can’t afford to overlook them though. This was a perfect…[Read more]

I agree that it’s great to be able to see the body of all the posts without having to click and open them. I remember when that option was added to UFN probably 7 or more years ago. I’ve had my settings set for that ever since.

The drawback of the Utefans.net forum style is that threads quickly go from top of the page to irrelevant. It gets to the point where, for the most part, I wouldn’t even bother commenting if a thread isn’t on page one, and page five is out of the question, because no one will see it. Perhaps this is just my perception? My perception is that the…[Read more]

This maybe off subject. But I love that I can preview my posts on UFN before actually posting it. It’s nice for grammar and spell checks and also nice for ensuring a link or an IMG took properly. I hate knowing everyone can see how many edits I did to make my posts readable.

Please?

I still love Utefans but I need a 9 or 10 day break. This should be the greatest week of posting about the Utes in years. Instead a vocal minority is peeing on any bit of optimism and celebration expressed.

Thank God for this alternative in times like these!

They gave up 14 to Grambling, 7 to SDSU, 44 to Texas and 24 to UW. Don’t know how many points may have been from special teams or pick 6’s.

What’s Whitts record coming off a bye? I think it’s pretty good.

Yeah, I think you hit it. Also, there’s an immediacy to the most recent posts. They are in a big spotlight, with hundreds of users able to read those comments within a very short time. It’s like having 15 minutes of fame every time you post. It encourages more short, to the point posts, and the red star system encourages wit (or crudely…[Read more]

I like to play trivia games. Does that count?

I think Utah needs to go vertical two to three times a game to keep the defense honest, but really those plays rarely work. It’s like swinging for a home run in baseball. Sure, you’re going to connect sometimes, but you’re also going to strike out a lot. Why not go for a lot of singles and doubles. In the Oregon game, Travis showed his mastery…[Read more]
