so we shouldn’t run the ball? except when we should run the ball? or should we have done the opposite of whatever didn’t work on the last play?

Can I sign up for a “best of the west” conference now? 12 teams, 11 game round robin, top 4 teams play off for the title. Season is over before Xmas and I don’t have to pretend to care whether Duke could beat Tulane in a neutral site matchup.

This has been 2 years of brutal football and brutal losses.

Should we be surprised with the bad outcomes of these plays when the personnel involved have little to no game reps?

no comment. just felt that needed to be highlighted

All shart, no fart.

He wasn’t as crisp in the 2nd half and Hill did a good job of giving him different looks. To me, the bigger problem on that play was you had a receiver who hadn’t gotten any targets this year and a QB in his first full game. That’s probably a play that Rising/Kuithe or Kincaid make in their sleep.

Watching it again, the better option would…[Read more]

are you referring to the parochial school’s 2020 football schedule?

i kid, i kid 🙂

you couldn’t see that hold clearly from the camera angle they showed from the top of the opposite side of the stadium? I’m shocked!

That broadcast was P12Network level bad. Surely that would get 12 different replays from 7 different angles in an SEC game. I mean, it’s not like it was a turning point in the game or anything.

You aren’t thinking like a Utah offensive coach. As soon as something works, you have to save it until the next game. Can’t take the chance of it working again because if it keeps working, the other team might try to stop it. Better off trying something completely different that hasn’t worked yet

I’m not sure how you think that Int doesn’t turn into a catch if the receiver runs the route the QB thinks he is going to? Looked like a good touch pass to me with plenty of room for King to settle in the zone and make a play. Instead, King turns to the sideline and never even looks for the ball.

The pick is at…[Read more]

Why aren’t we running the ball this year?

At least there were a couple of people who took the free money being offered with that +3 line

that’s the question I want answered. the 2nd would be how he/she managed to get tickets. the third would be what his/her username is on the parochial school fan boards.

Otherwise, story checks out 🙂

wait a minute. haven’t you spent the last two weeks on every thread telling us that Utah HAS to run the ball?

The failure to get a first down either time the defense gave you the ball at midfield in the 4th quarter. That was where the game was lost. So damn worried about running time off the clock that you won’t go with any kind of tempo and take advantage of the momentum shift(s).

How good next year’s offense will depend entirely on the Head Coach’s vision. If it’s Whitt in charge, I have no confidence that he will do anything different than he has for the last 20 years. Heck, it wouldn’t be out of his nature to throw a boatload of money at ARod since apparently recycling OC’s is his new jam.

I’m not sure I agree. There’s around 100 schools that think they should get into the 40-48 team P2. Now’s the time to decide what you want your future to be in college football.

For me, I’d rather see Utah get back to regional competition than some bastardized semi-pro league dictated by two television networks. I worked too hard for my money…[Read more]

That’s really the key isn’t it? If somehow they win 2 of the next 3, no changes will be made. It’ll get blamed on injury luck, January through August we’ll be told how talented and deep the team is, and then have to sit through another groundhog year

Silver lining no more jet sweep play calls to Kuithe for negative yards.
