We started off slowly. USC was running the ball well and the Trojans scored two easy touchdowns. I think that Scalley initially miscalculated some things. However, Scalley made amazing adjustments and USC did not have another TD drive the rest of the game. (They did score an 11-yard TD after the punt return.)

I give Scalley credit for his…[Read more]

I did not want the PAC12 to dissolve. It makes more sense for us to play in a regional conference. All of these conference realignments are getting out of hand and I hate it.

That being said, we are looking like arrogant fools complaining about our new conference. IMO we should be hoping for our new conference to be very successful. There is…[Read more]

I admit that after the debacle at Oregon State, I had little hope for our injure-riddled team. I did not see how we could compete with the elite PAC12 teams. I saw some positive things against Cal, but last night really gave me hope.

We still will be missing 2 of our top 3 QBs, 3 of our top 5 running backs, our top two tight ends, a starting…[Read more]

And 14 of those points were in the 1st quarter. Congrats to Scalley and the D for figuring things out and shutting USC down.

Whitt just announced this. No surprise.

This is just one old guy’s opinion. I think Ritchie and Bishop can handle the safety positions. Vaki has made this offense go. Vaki is also a great defensive player but he is amazing on offense!!! We need him on offense if we hope to win against Oregon and UW.

I realize many may disagree with me and that’s okay. I just like what I see from…[Read more]

He is on crutches. It will hurt big time if he is not available next Saturday.

I can’t believe how many injuries we have had.

They talked up Utah’s defense but made it perfectly clear that Utah has little offense without Cam Rising.

In the end – I don’t think anyone at the table thinks Utah can win because of their offense and because Bishop will not play the first half. Obviously, losing Bishop is a big deal. However, I hope Williams goes after Ritchie. I think they…[Read more]

Our 2022 defense was not great last year and that was with an offense that kept the ball longer than the 2023 offense. Why are we so much better?

We lost an All-American CB.
We lost a starting linebacker.
We lost a starting safety, but I think Vaki is much better than Herbert was on his best day.
We have had numerous injuries; i.e. Pepa, Tafuna,…[Read more]

Dave Bartoo, a successful college football and NFL statistical analyst made an odd prediction on Riley’s show.

He said if USC has a false-start on their first possession tomorrow, Utah will win the game.

Let’s see what happens.
