Like you, Eagle, I don’t watch much NFL, but I did see that play on Nacua, and he was mugged a couple of different ways. It was unbelievable. I was wondering to myself how Pac12 refs were able to call that game. Side note: I know he played for the TDS, but Nacua is a baller. Good on him for an amazing rookie season. He and Kincaid both…[Read more]

Boom! This is the one I’ve been waiting for. I hope he’s near 100% come fall.

This is my main worry, Charlie. Do we have enough adults in the room to fix college football or are we going to continue down this road. I’ve been mildly depressed all year with the way things are going, starting with the collapse of the Pac12 due to gross mismanagement. It seems like everything that made the game beautiful is systematically…[Read more]

I’m sorry to see that potential walk out the door, but as of today, that’s all it was. Poor guy couldn’t get healthy.

Man, that’s kind of a mean poll to put out the morning after whatever that was last night ;).

For the Big Ten to realize the error of their ways by kicking out Rutgers to add the Utes.

“Family on three”.

Huh.

Man, Utah, I’m going to print this and show it to people when they wonder why I’ve checked out of college football. How many gut punches can these guys give the fans before they start dwindling off and finding something else to do? On a normal Saturday, I start watching games at 10am and don’t finish until midnight. I can see myself watching…[Read more]

In Nate’s defense, it definitely sounds like there were some communication issues there between him and the coaches. However, out of all of the positions on the field, you should never be entitled to be the QB. You go out and take that position. If our goal is conference championships and maybe even being part of the 12-team playoff, Nate…[Read more]

1. It all sunk in when I saw our home schedule for 2024. We’ve been relegated to the teenager table, and that’s not an opinion.

2. It’s OK to be disappointed. Do you honestly think K State, Ok St, and TCU are excited to replace games with Texas and Oklahoma with Utah and BYU? They know they’ve been relegated too.

3. Just because Utah nation…[Read more]

Started my fandom in the eighties and have never seen an injury year even close to as bad as this one.

Today, it’s almost like we’re in shut-down mode.

My totally uniformed, don’t know what the hell I’m talking about, wild-ass guess on the odds of Cam’s future:

10% transfers to another school
30% tries his luck in the NFL
60% returns to start us off right in the XII

Fixed the category for you…

This is the line of thinking I adopt right before we play Georgia 😉

I have a feeling that what happened last week was more because Oregon is a playoff-caliber team than it was us just sucking. I mean kudos to the Ducks, right? I’m hoping that our boys come out with a little more fire, as last week had to have been a major ego-hit. Let’s hope that the Ducks don’t beat us twice. If the Utah team that beat USC…[Read more]

Oregon called off the dogs on Saturday. They were doing whatever they wanted to us.

Proud, I think you’ve stumbled upon the secret of happiness… no expectations. Some of us tempered our expectations a few weeks ago, so even though the game on Saturday was very TCU-esque, it hasn’t affected me nearly the same. Maybe it’s that I understand what I saw out there a little more than I would have several years ago. This Oregon team…[Read more]

Nail fungus can be debilitating!

Wouldn’t surprise me if Caleb Williams came up with a “season-ending injury” (sprained pinky finger).

That it did, my friend!
