The real test will some during time outs and half time when large parts of the crowd are checking scores of other games and stats for our game.

Will miss getting up on Sunday morning, turning on the PAC12 network, and seeing highlights of all the conference games from the previous day. The Big12 section of ESPN+ doesn’t seem to have anything like that.
Other than failing to get distribution, the PAC12 network did a fairly good job.

There have been seasons through the years that Utah exceeds pre-season expectations, and years where Utah fails to meet them. This years expectations are very high, remains to be seen what the results are.

Always has been a favorite day trip with a pleasant scenic drive and friendly fans. Sadly have weekend coverage (and one of the few members of my staff who could switch with he is an USU alum who will be attending) so will have to skip the game this time.

For decades now the Holy War often sees underdogs give the favorites all they can handle. Could be a very competitive game come early November.

utefansince79 replied to the topic Was the pandemic the major cause of the Pac12 dissolving? in the forum Pac-12 2 months, 1 week ago
Seems it was inevitable that the BiG and SEC gradually absorb the most desirable teams from other conferences.
Best we may hope for is eventually is a lot of the former PAC12 members (including Utah) are together in a western division of the BiG.

utefansince79 replied to the topic For lurking BIG-12 fans, you MUST understand this in the forum They So Poo Poo 2 months, 1 week ago
Some people can be at their worst when they are online hiding and typing things they would usually not say to your face.
I’ve avoided CB for a very long time now and unfortunately have had to leave a few FB Big12 boards as there is far too much negativity (largely from “fans” from BYU and Utah.) Would have liked to meet and befriend fans from…[Read more]

Most of schedule after September not announced yet. Like the PAC12, will find out game times and networks a week or two before the game.

Some of the furthest opponents (except the team from Provo) are the ones we play twice. Would rather have home/away against Colorado, Zona, and ASU.
But will have some interesting teams paying a visit, hopefully we can be somewhat competitive.

Lord forbid we allow football outcomes similar to San Diego State or Butler in the hoops title game or Fresno State winning the baseball title.

utefansince79 replied to the topic What I’d like to see (hear) in the forum Football 4 months ago
Others may not agree with me, but one thing I hope to NEVER hear at Rice-Eccles is the obnoxious horn used at many venues (some college football and pretty much all NHL arenas) which drowns out the noise made by fans after a score.
I want to hear the roar of the crowd, not fake noise.

A very special team. At their last regular season home game against UTEP, when they pulled the starters off with a minute left, legendary Don Haskins walked the length of the court down to the Utah bench to shake all of their hands.
(This was before the tradition of teams lining up and shaking hands at the end of the game started).

utefansince79 replied to the topic Favorite childhood teams in the forum NBA 4 months, 1 week ago
In my younger years…
Basketball – Utah Stars, didn’t really follow NBA at all, just the ABA
Hockey – Salt Lake Golden Eagles
Baseball – Cincinnati RedsStill a Reds fan, and now a Jazz fan. Of course now a fan of all Ute team and will follow our new NHL yet-to-named team.
NFL now follow the Packers.

utefansince79 replied to the topic Which game are you most looking forward to this fall and why? in the forum Football 4 months, 1 week ago
While it’s been six years since TDS visited Rice-Eccles, I am eager for the Arizona game, if anything, for a rather late long bomb in a game that was long past decided.

One thing I will always appreciate is Urban lit a fire under a once mostly apathetic student body and motivate them to pack the student section at Rice-Eccles. (Now if only someone could do that for basketball)
