ProudUte started the topic What do we know about OSU? in the forum Football 2 months ago
Going into the season, OSU had the leading rusher in the country in Ollie Gordon. So, you would think they are a running team. But, that has not been the case.
They have run 100 times for a meager 337 yards.
Ollie Gordon is only averaging 3.7 yards per carry. Rumor was that he he had hip flexer in August. He has not missed a game but he is…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic Gundy squashes another BYU fan claim in the forum They So Poo Poo 2 months ago
Utah had 19,000 fans in Gainsville in 2022. According to the local radio station – that was the largest number of opposing fans for a Florida game except FSU. Cb likes to say that Utah does not travel well. That’s a joke.

ProudUte replied to the topic QBs Wilson and Johnson will Dominate the B12 in 2025 in the forum Football 2 months ago
I think that Isaac has a huge upside. Johnson will have a year of playing under his belt next season. Hopefully, Isaac will have very limited action this year and will lack experience. If Fifita decides to come back next season – he will be the best QB in the league IMO.
I think Isaac could be great and may be an NFL guy. Isaac has not shown…[Read more]

I am thinking that people are beginning to hear/believe that Cam will be playing.

ProudUte replied to the topic Ok State is -3 as of this morning in the forum Football 2 months ago
Acording to the ESPN stats – Gordon ran 17 times for 41 yards. So, unless they have another Ollie Gordon on the team – Gordon played on Saturday.

ProudUte started the topic Notes from Whitt's presser in the forum Football 2 months, 1 week ago
– A lot of positive – especially Wilson. Slow start as a team. No explanation for that. Give USU credit.
– Should be a good matchup for our first conference game.
– Reporter said the Utes D was torched. Whit seemed to be taken back. USU made some good catches. Barnes did good. We felt pretty good about our secondary’s performance…[Read more]

ProudUte started the topic Reid interview on 1280 in the forum Football 2 months, 1 week ago
Notes from the weekly Reid interview:
– He said the LB group looked good. Hall looked good.
– He was not on the sideline for the game on Saturday. (I thought that was odd.)
– He didn’t get overly nervous when the team was down 14-3.
– He thought Wilson looked good and composed himself well. He is excited for his future. He has a great…[Read more]

ProudUte started the topic It is suppose to be 95 degrees at game time on Saturday in the forum Football 2 months, 1 week ago
Both teams have to play in the same weather, but I hate games where it is so crazy hot, especially on Field Turf.
This stadium is unique because it is laid out east/west instead of the normal north/south. If you are looking back west for the ball, it may be hard to see in a late afternoon game.

ProudUte replied to the topic Ok State is -3 as of this morning in the forum Football 2 months, 1 week ago
How the game plays out is almost impossible to predict. For example – who would have predicted a 13-12 score in the Georgia/Kentucky game? Kentucky lost at home 31-6 just the week before to South Carolina. Who predicted Northern Illinois would beat Notre Dame?
Football can be a weird game to predict. Neither Ok State or Utah have such…[Read more]

I predicted -3.5 on Saturday night. They typically give 3 points for the home team. So, I guess they are saying this is pretty much a toss-up. OnlyU says Cam is playing. As of today, this seems to be our toughest game on the schedule.
What do you guys think?

ProudUte started the topic I would love to know what is in Whitt's head in the forum Football 2 months, 1 week ago
Whit knows Football as well as anyone. But, we only hear coach speak from him. So, we really never know too much about the team and the gameplan. (Normal foral coaches.) I wish we could hear him talk as a commentator about this week’s game. What will Utah do to stop OSU’s passing attack? What will the offensive scheme be? Which receivers will…[Read more]

He certainly is not as good without his partners, Reid and Damuni.

ProudUte started the topic What I liked about Wilson's play yesterday in the forum Football 2 months, 1 week ago
I was unhappy about the play of our D yesterday, but I am optimistic about what I saw from Isaac Wilson. What I liked most was how he checked down and found the open receiver. Over and over again, you could see him check down. He did not just throw to the first guy. That takes some maturity. He also did not have happy feet and leave the…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic 3 games in, has your W-L prediction for Utah changed? in the forum Football 2 months, 1 week ago
I don’t think our D is nearly as good as advertised. That really shouldn’t be a surprise considering we lost our two safeties to the NFL as well as our best edge rusher. We also lost our top tackler to an injury. So, I think expectations (especially mine) were set too high.
I am unsure about our offense because we have only seen one half of…[Read more]

I hope we do what Notre Dame did after their loss last week to a G5 team. Sometimes the best thing that can happen to you in sports is to pull out a win when you played ugly. It serves as a wake-up call. I hope this is the case for Scalley and the D. Also, we need Reid back BIG-time!!!

Sorry, that does not explain the pathetic defensive effort.

ProudUte started the topic Help me feel better in the forum Football 2 months, 1 week ago
I was shocked by how bad our D played today. Also, Baylor only has about 100 total yards at half time against a bad AF team. So, I don’t think we can say we played great D against the Bears.
I started to sip the kool-aid, and now I have thrown it up. As it sits now, my expectations have been lowered. I think we are probably 8-4 or at best a…[Read more]
