Utah replied to the topic Utah/tds – Keys to success in the forum Football 8 years, 1 month ago
I’m going to parrot what Coach Whitt said during the coaches show. Bill Riley ask what stat, other than turnovers is the next most important. His answer was keeping the opponent under 100 yards rushing.
So there it is, win the turnover battle and hold them to less than 100 rushing yards. I think it can be done based on what everyone has posted a…[Read more]

Wrubell said on Bill Riley’s show today that the past six games, Utah has had less turnovers in 5…all Utah wins. BYU’s only win? When both Utah and BYU had zero turnovers.
At the end of the day, it’s the turnover battle.

Utah replied to the topic Domo listed as starting in the forum Football 8 years, 1 month ago
B-B? As of yesterday, Whitt said no change. So, that means…not yet, but could be back at any time. Rumors are saying that he is practicing with the team. So, I guess if he has hoops to jump through he could be reinstated at any second. It wouldn’t shock me if he is brought back the night before the game…or right before the game. or not at all…[Read more]

DON’T TURN THE BALL OVER. The team that turns the ball over the least wins.
Get turnovers. That is key #2.
#3? Score points. Finish drives.
Here is what I think happens:
Utah will go man with BYU’s three receivers, especially if Domo is playing. They will stack the box and bring the heat. They will dare Hill to beat them with his arm, which…[Read more]

Utah started the topic I'm less worried about BYU than I was about SUU. in the forum Football 8 years, 1 month ago
A lot, and I mean A LOT of our OL problems had to do with playing SUU.
How can any of you guys think our OL played poorly but then be concerned about BYU’s run game? Their OL was ten times worse than ours last night. Arizona’s DL averages 250lbs a person. And BYU struggled running the ball vs them.
Arizona had two turnovers. BYU had none.…[Read more]

Here you go. Let’s see if this sticks.
An interesting stat:
LaVell 22-7 vs Utah. Pretty damn amazing. Lavell had a .758 winning percentage. Props due where props are due.
Pre-LaVell. 41-8. Utah won outright 77% of the time.
Post LaVell. 10-4. Utah has won outright 71% of the time.It appears that LaVell was a really good coach. And, it…[Read more]

Utah replied to the topic We have no chance next Saturday in the forum Football 8 years, 1 month ago
For as much as they viewed Utah as “just another game” with Bronco at the helm, we turned out to be their Super Bowl far too often.
Turns out they know how the Bills feel.

Utah started the topic Tony, I realize you have done a TON, and I may be asking for too much here… in the forum Comments and Suggestions 8 years, 1 month ago
But, I just went to the pick ’em part of the site and clicked on standings and nothing shows up in the weekly section. Would there be a way to have it update the standings after the games end? Or is that just too much work? It’d would be fun to look at the standings and mock those who have picked bad picks already.
Or to have the USC/Alabama…[Read more]

Utah started the topic My thoughts in the forum Football 8 years, 1 month ago
I am actually very pleased with our play. Yeah, we should have won by more. Yeah, our OL struggled at times. But we were really, really solid.
Williams was good in the throw game. Our WR’s made some plays, McCormick looks good.
And our defense? Wow. We were fantastic defensively.
What do we need to do this week?
Fix the OL. We need to…[Read more]

Utah started the topic My Expectations in the forum Football 8 years, 1 month ago
We start out slow. Everyone freaks out. BUT, here is why: We will try to stay as vanilla as possible. We will run, run, run. SUU has a couple of 300+lb starters, including a guy who is 30 years old. What does that mean? When we run, run, run they will stuff, stuff, stuff…for 1/2 a quarter or so.
After we go three and out once..maybe twice, we…[Read more]

Utah started the topic Oh. MY. GOSH. Let's do this in the forum Football 8 years, 1 month ago
So, normally I’m labeled as a homer. But as the season gets closer and closer, I am getting scared. The more I look at this, the more and more and more I feel like we may slip up this year.
I think all my concern comes from not having seen Troy play. IF he can limit turnovers, we win 9+. If he can limit turnovers and be any threat throwing the…[Read more]

Utah started the topic Why isn't the playoff set up like this: in the forum Football 8 years, 2 months ago
All five of the P5 conference champs get in.
Rank them 1-5.
The first bowl game of the year (right before Christmas), you have the 4 vs 5 game.
Then, play the rest of the games as normal:
1 vs 4/5
2 vs 3
Easy fix.

Utah started the topic So, I usually go to Disneyland during the BYU game. in the forum Football 8 years, 2 months ago
So far, we are 5-0 when I watch the game on my phone in line for rides. 3-0 vs BYU, 1-0 vs OSU, 1-0 vs ASU. We were originally going to go during the week of the USC game, which had me pumped, because we NEED to beat USC if we want to be good this year.
But, Disney added extra days to their Halloween Trick or Treat stuff and made it so if we…[Read more]

Utah started the topic Best case/worst case scenario in the forum Football 8 years, 2 months ago
Utah best case scenario:
Utah runs through their schedule, going 3-1 or 2-2 vs USC, UCLA, Washington, and Oregon. They win the south. They play a top 4 Stanford team and beat them in a hard fought OT game. They go to the playoffs and lose in the title game. I’m still not sure we are deep enough to win two games in a row like that. Or they win…[Read more]
