Could be worse. Also, is the Vegas Bowl really Dec 16? That would suck. This is not the year to get that bowl.

Just gonna say it….Darren Carrington is my all time favorite Ute. Hasn’t taken the field & already has an opposing fan base all bunched up.

The amount of angst Carrington has caused BYU fans might be the funniest thing I’ve ever seen. -

Remember last fall when Barnett transferred from Alabama mid season and Saban threw a fit about it? Turns out Saban lied to the QB’s about playing time (Clay Helton, cough cough) and then screed Barnett and Bateman over.

Utah replied to the topic 247 player ratings out of high school. in the forum Football 7 years, 2 months ago
I’m in Oregon. They are our “first” opponent. They are our rival. They make stupid proclamations. That’s why.
I dunno. I hate them. I don’t hate any other team. I know the other games we play will most likely be hard fought games. I don’t have fans if other teams acting like douche nozzles.
Now, my arguments/whatever are dumb too. I’m no…[Read more]

Utah replied to the topic 247 player ratings out of high school. in the forum Football 7 years, 2 months ago
The biggest equalizer is their…… age. They have two OL from 2012 or earlier. Plus, Koroma is a SR. Plus El Bakri is old as dust as well.
To have that much age at the OL…that much “old man strength”. It’s a great equalizer. That’s why their OL typically drastically outplays their star rating. They are so old on the lines.
I know all the…[Read more]

Overall:
Utah: .842
BYU: .745Also, for shits and giggles:
Utah has one player from the 2012 recruiting class: Chase Hansen. All the rest are 2013 or later.
BYU has 4 from 2012: Mangum, El Bakri, Norman, Pau’u. They have 2 players from 2011: Tausinga and Kaufusi. They have 1 player from 2010: Kanuch.
So, for 22 starters, they have 7…[Read more]

Defense:
I took 2 DE, 2 DT, 3 LB, 2 CB, 2 S from BYU.
I took 4 DE, 4 DT, 2 LB, 4 CB and 4 S from Utah.This helps BYU as we have “lessor” players averaged in and they don’t.

LB: Utah – .855, BYU – .853

All right, I went down each team’s starters and pulled their # recruiting rank off 247.
For BYU, I took 1 QB, 1 HB, 1 FB, 4 WR, 5 OL, 3 TE for 15 players.
For Utah, I took 1 QB, 1 RB, 7 WR, 5 OL and 1 TE for 15 players.
Its not exact, but I do believe it more accurately represents what each defense will see. Also, I didn’t do backups, but…[Read more]

Utah started the topic BYU's secondary sucks. in the forum Football 7 years, 2 months ago
Versus teams with a winning record, they gave up 312 yards per game through the air. They gave up 300+ yards a game 4 times.
If you take out Wyoming, which was in a hurricane and Utah, who hasn’t realized you can throw the pass forward, they gave up 357 yards per game.
Again, their greatness is their pathetically weak schedule.
This was done…[Read more] -

Utah started the topic Good guys vs them, pure talent. in the forum Football 7 years, 2 months ago
I’m fascinated by all the crowing from those people. So, I wanted to look at a “pure talent” perspective. Star ratings by rivals for the top 16 offensive players for each school.
QB’s: Williams (3 stars) vs Mangum (4 stars).
Advantage BYU. BUT, if you look at play vs P5, it’s pretty even, although Mangum has only dreamed of having a game like…[Read more] -

First thoughts:
he said they hope to have Hansen back by game 1.
He thinks the CB’s will be better than last year.
Is confident the OL is 7 deep. Looking for 1-2 more to step up.
He complimented the WR’s. Never heard him do that before. It’s always been a chuckle and some comment…[Read more] - Load More
