7-21 is not the best down you described.

We put up a lot more than 21 with Rising. We averaged almost 40 points per game last year.

Oregon beat us. But, we had Johnson at QB. He was 8/23.

We smoked OSU last year and with Rising would have done so again.

Oh man. We easily beat Oregon State with Rising and I don’t know if we beat Oregon, but the game would actually be entertaining if we had Rising.

Yeah baby! Back to elite.

And in that decision making process…he can’t think on the fly. The interception to Vaki was a perfect example. Vaki runs an option route. Vaki sees that there are three defenders to the right, so he runs to the left. Barnes throws it to the right, where the three defenders are and throws an interception.

The reality is, we don’t know if Barnes…[Read more]

Here is what I see:

– The winner of Ohio State and Michigan will make the playoffs, if both win out to the conference championship game.

Because of this, if all other teams win out, the top 4 will be: the winner of Ohio St/Michigan, Florida State, Washington, Georgia.

BUT, UW and Oregon are ranked 5/6. This tells me that if both teams win…[Read more]

Ha ha. I love this. Us poors just need to be better.

17 million…Crazy. He’s supposed to make between 88-110 million dollars. If he makes 88, he spent 19% of his income on his home.

If he makes the full 110, he spent 15% of his income on that home.

What a picture of responsibility and frugalness. Here I spend almost 40% of my income on my home. I should be more like him.

1 – Utah basketball sucks. It’s not fun to watch. Well…actually, that is probably reasons 1-5. Most casual fans, like myself, tune in to one or two games early every year…and whether you like it or not, usually it’s the BYU game. And when we lose…eh. I have better things to do with my time.

2 – The PAC-12 sucks. Why should I watch a bad…[Read more]

I love how Riley goes down 0-1 then starts dropping the spin balls and quickly finishes the game. lol.

But, yeah, that is a beautiful house.

Man, now I really hope he goes to USC. He could make some connections with some coaches from Riley’s tree, really expose him to some new ideas. He’s a great coach and a great mind, let’s expand that thing as much as we can before his shortcomings cost us games (not saying they will, but the more you know the better).

I look back at my title and was too harsh. I’m not taking accountability away from Whitt…or at least that wasn’t my intent.

He needs to either recruit better WR’s or develop them better.

My point was just this: If you are a talented pass catcher, Whitt will get you the ball. Who were Whitt’s best WR’s?

Tim Patrick, Carrington, Brown, Reid,…[Read more]

What’s so stupid about all this is that there is an easy fix:

Let the QB’s have dots in their helmets and let the OC talk to the QB. Hell, it would help Utah out a lot, especially with Barnes. You can have Barnes line up, have Ludwig do the presnap read for him, tell him “Hey Vele has single coverage, he should be your first read” so Barnes…[Read more]

Honestly…we know it’s going to be Scalley 99% or Jay Hill 1%. Knowing this, I’d 100% be ok with Scalley going to USC. I think it would do him a lot of good to see how a completely different type of coach coaches. To see how to battle with an offensive mind and how to navigate a game plan that might put your defense in a bad position.

Then we…[Read more]

I called it and they totally fixed my quickbuks for me. Even though I don’t have quickbuks…

But anyways, I’m super grateful because they said there was some security risk and bots were coming for me and they were so nice…they didn’t even want my credit card number like those scams want…I just sent them some gift cards…And they liked the…[Read more]

I think you have to study the crap out of the ASU game and find out how they got 4 TO’s. That is the key.

Also, if Jackson can’t go…we will get blown out.

Finally, we have hope. Remember, only three things can happen when you pass the ball and two of those things are bad for the offense. Pass heavy teams, while they have their advantages,…[Read more]

I think the answer is…maybe. Johnson is playing Nickelback, which is basically a LB/S/CB hybrid. Johnson is 6-1, 200 lbs. He is the dream size for outside CB. I’d bet money that is where they want him to be.

BUT if Bishop leaves (he shouldn’t) or if Vaki moves to the offense (he shouldn’t), then they can play Johnson at Safety.

Ideally, we’d…[Read more]

This. If Jackson is healthy, we can beat any P12 team not named Oregon.

If Jackson is out…we need to hope that something has clicked with Barnes and he’s suddenly a lot better.

I’m not sure they get to bowl eligibility. Their last three games are Iowa State, Oklahoma, and Ok State.

Either way, I certainly hope we would get a better opponent than the Zoobs.

Oh man. They started 5-1 and now they are losing? Looks like their November collapse is happening.

I love this. This is what they wanted. Cincinnati and UCF and Houston as well. Well, they are getting it. And they are so far behind everyone else. It will take a miracle for those four teams to not end up the perennial doormats.

Lol. And I love…[Read more]
