Trend in college football and hoops is longer timeouts. Fans in Rice-Eccles are starting to boo the individual who comes out with the sign displaying the count down clock for when play will resume.

And indeed Big12 officials have a much lighter hand on the game, letting the teams play, especially compared to our former conference.

What did Ezra do on the technical? Figured he was unhappy about getting shoved around a few times (and officials were letting both teams get aggressive, in particular in the first half) and he said or did something to express his feelings.

We won the rebounding battle 36-21 which as a huge help. Did well from the line going 12-17. Helped that the Bearcats were poor from the line, including missing 3 front ends of 1 and 1s (cost a potential 6 points).

Was kind of crazy that when Shark got shoved off of the floor, earning a flagrant 2 on the opponent, that we came away with zero…[Read more]

Thanks for all you do Tony.

I remember back in the first years of the trey that as a tam the Lakers had something like ten 3pt attempts in the entire season.

Many teams average that per quarter now.

Still love college hoops and am in the Hunty for most games (when I don’t have a family/work commitment).

Pretty much not at all interested in the NBA due to a number of factors including a lack of defense, endless unguarded three point attempts which are often from 30-40 feet, rest management, etc. And of course our local team striving to…[Read more]

With 5 seconds left, after a foul was called against Utah on the inbounds play before the ball was even thrown in, Knell stepped up to the line with the chance to give BYU the lead. Bricked the front end of the one-and-one. Can’t blame that on the guys in stripes.

Hopefully some of the fans attending had a fun and exciting enough time to attend a few more games. Near the end of the game, the scoreboard indicated seats for future games were available for $10 each (which is pretty cheap compared to any seats in Rice-Eccles).

The Huntsman Center is a wonderful building when it is packed and the atmosphere was incredible last night. Significant number of vocal Cougar supporters but Ute fans were much louder.

Hope that Utah fans (including the students) can come out for some of the other BIG12 games as we need that home advantage against the likes of Baylor, Kansas,…[Read more]

The players looked like they were having fun and enjoying things.

Hope a lot of Utah fans (in particular the students) come out and cheer loudly Saturday.

Among my proudest Ute moments were watching Cam dive into the end zone in the closing minutes to beat USC and then beating the Trojans again in Vegas to win another PAC12 trophy.

But time to clear the way for another leader at QB.

Had that rare time when a Ute player (Dawes) was having his way against an opponent with no answer for him. (about 4 dunks in a few minutes)

But he came out during a time out and seemed to be getting a lecture from the coach.

Need a team that performs well to draw a crowd and need a good crowd to motivate current players to play well and encourage recruits and potential coaches to come (as well as encouraging NIL $$$$).

Right now team performing poorly, small crowds, virtually zero student support, and limited NIL funds. I fear the decline will continue for some time.

Made a big difference when sections A-F (and AA-FF) were the student sections, filled below the concourse for most games, and packed to the top for BYU, UTEP, Wyoming, New Mexico, and others. Compared to now where the band often has more members than the rest of the students.

Hunter works his tail off out there, but for each game he lights it up for a handful of threes, has a few others where his shots are falling and has a high number of turnovers.

(Same goes for a number of players on this team)

So let me get this straight. Harlan gets reprimanded and fined by the league for angrily commenting on officiating after the Holy War but OK for the commissioner to do the same?

The pre-season predictions of a dead-last conference finish seem pretty right to me at this point.

Starters are 2 of 16 from the field late in the first half (12.5 percent)

National League pitchers (before they finally added the DH rule a few years ago) usually had higher batting averages.

All about the $$$$

Fuck money

Singer was a great play-maker and it’s unfortunate he had one lone TD. If he has a good QB throwing the ball and a few other quality receivers running routes (so opponent has several targets they need to focus on) has the potential for great numbers should he stay.
