RUUTES

Really makes me wonder if he got a few more carries in a couple games.  Great show tonight.  Kid has heart.

Huntley is a great athlete but I’m seeing very little team play.  Moss is being wasted and no leader on the field appears to be trying to sort it out.  Going to be a long 3 more games after tonight and that makes me very sad.

Every single fan base in the nation gets excited when they are on an undefeated streak. At 4-0 every fan base loses their minds a bit. then with a loss most freak out for a bit, want to fire their coaches, and get fairly depressed once the illusion is shattered until they mark it up to rebuilding or something and move on. Ute fans fall in this…[Read more]

The fat lady sang in the second quarter.

I originally thought this was about rebuilding but our craptastic looks on every side of the ball makes me concerned the issue is something else.  

If Huntley is 95%+ then he should play. But if he looks like he’s hurting there isn’t any reason not to sub in Williams or Bateman or both is there? I just don’t want to see Huntley running around with his right arm dangling uselessly. On the other hand if he’s able to play then the kid needs reps up to junk time.

Yeah I think that Moss kid is showing some talent. Maybe giving him the ball a couple dozen times a game is a good idea.

if they hadn’t fumbled with 2.5m left they would have done it. THey were the better team all night.

if ASU beats USC (and I think they will) then it will make me feel a bit better about last weekend…not the blow out, but that I’ll understand we were essentially looking past and fatigued against a MUCH BETTER than anticipated team.

That being said…it will also make me feel shittier about losing by 1pt to USC.

I remember that…then I take a hammer and hit myself in the head till I forget again. I FRIGGIN HATE that game. It’s a waste. We have nothing to gain, no exposure, no ranking, nothing.

Replace them with SDSU, Kansas, or….USU! Yes USU! Please!

I went back and read my predictions of a 7-5 season and while I’m feeling a bit like that was overly optimistic, I also went into this season thinking TOTAL REBUILD YEAR…and that’s what we are getting.

Wish we’d stop scheduling total scrubs in our first 3 games. We don’t need world killers…but how about a Wyoming, a Kansas, and a Duke or…[Read more]

The D came out flat everywhere except in the redzone. That wasn’t on the O in the first quarter when ASU was able to drive and score 3 times. That’s a D that hasn’t done key things for weeks (or against decent Offenses) this year. I’m not sure what’s going on, but we aren’t performing on D the same as in years past. I DO see the 3rd and 4th Q…[Read more]

1. USC this week makes me think the close week last week wasn’t really about us as much as it was about them.
2. USC losing always makes me feel a bit happier.
3. Us losing always makes me feel fairly shitty about the whole football week..so I don’t care about USC as much as I normally would.

TH looked a lot like TW imho…he dialed in almost exclusively on his right side and never scanned the field. HE DID HAVE TIME. But his throwing motion seemed way off on anything down field. I strongly suspect that’s why we resorted to almost 100% screen passes and became laughably predictable. What that means to me is that TH wasn’t close to…[Read more]

be glad you worked all day. I wish I’d been somewhere making money instead of the SEZ in the shade shivering while the team’s play slowly killed me inside. Yes, a nice day of work and money would have been a better option. Then I’d have just thought WTF? instead of having watched the long, slow, painful thud of our team falling down.

Do not…[Read more]

He looked hurt with his arm hanging close to the half. His down field throws were all off and he never tried to throw back to the right. It was clear he wasn’t close to 100% and if I’m Chris Hill I’m on the phone to Kyle yelling about player health. Its one thing to think Maybe the kids healthy enough…but 2 quarters answered that question…[Read more]

I have seen all three and I agree. Also check out Slither (and listen to the song at the end), as well as a nutty irish import called Grabbers.

the 3 scores in 3 drives to start the game was at least partly on the D. Honestly no part of this team looked amped for the game. Honestly can’t explain it. Huntley looked like he wasn’t healthy enough to come back but everyone was off. It felt a lot like the game in Varsity Blues the morning after the strip club.

Can we offer suggestions about where the meteor should land?
