YodaUte started the topic Will Utah start to benefit from PAC-12 officiating? in the forum Football 9 years, 1 month ago
When Utah was in the MWC or the WAC, I found the worst thing about playing a PAC-10 opponent was that you had to deal with PAC-10 officiating. I can think of several occasions throughout the years where the Utes took a loss on one or more really questionable calls. I am convinced the officiating was, if not outright dirty, at least biased in…[Read more]

YodaUte replied to the topic The kickoff return safety was a good play call in the forum Football 9 years, 1 month ago
I’m not buying your logic. You say we have a 1 in 7 chance of touchdown on a kickoff return based on the one TD scored to date. Those were straight up returns with no gadgetry. You have to ask what is your success rate on a trick play. I believe it’s much higher. You have to take the surprise factor into account.
Look at onside kicks, for…[Read more]

The punishment is that you have to start reading cougarboard.

YodaUte started the topic The kickoff return safety was a good play call in the forum Football 9 years, 1 month ago
It’s easy to look at a trick play that failed and criticize it as a stupid decision, but let’s stop a minute and think logically about it. Is there anything in life where you can really predict the outcome? You can look at film and you can compile statistics based on historical performance, but no one can predict whether or not an individual…[Read more]

Great stuff! Thanks for the effort.

Did you notice how many times Bercovic sacked himself? I can think of at least three occasions where he saw the pressure coming, said “Oh snap!” and just dove to the ground. He didn’t even try to run away. He just dove for the ground and curled up in a fetal position.
Can’t say I blame him. Utah’s D-line is pretty nasty.

Better than 8pm. For those with kids I know a lot of folks at the tailgate lot bring candy for kids roaming the lot. Bonus for the kids if your spouse or someone is taking the kids home to trick or treat later as well. twofer

Since it’s in the shape of the letter O, I assumed it was the ghost of Oregon’s national championship aspirations.

Jared–aka “Chuck”–Norris will be fine.

YodaUte replied to the topic ASU was stealing our offensive signals in the forum Football 9 years, 1 month ago
I don’t think it was to slow down the clock. Utah started huddling while still trailing 18-14. On that first play from huddle, the camera caught a close-up of an ASU defensive player. The kid looked anxious and confused.

YodaUte replied to the topic ASU was stealing our offensive signals in the forum Football 9 years, 1 month ago
At first blush this seems downright despicable. Another reason to hate those guys.
But, isn’t code-breaking a crucial aspect of any war effort? There’s a reason coaches use elaborate poster and hand signal schemes to communicate the play call. If ASU was stealing our play calls, the failure is on our coaching staff for letting it hap…[Read more]

I dont know the reason, as I said, Ive been down the road he is going and it is very expensive. Ive been a donor since 2005 and it always came out in December on the anniversary when I signed up. this time in October. Has anyone else noticed the same thing?

Far be it from me to throw any stones and I speak from a similar experience but I noticed my annual donation to Utefans that usually goes through in December was charged 2 days ago. I suspect his need for $$$ is great and hes doing what he can but just a heads up and I thought it was interesting.
