Where would Utah be ranked if there were no polls until Week 4? Preseason polls can be problematic because voters are judging teams based on bad information like how good was last year’s team and what teams have long-standing traditions. Then once a team is highly ranked there is a tendency to not drop them…[Read more]

YodaUte started the topic This year’s Travis vs last year in the forum Football 9 years, 1 month ago

One big difference I’ve noticed is that this year’s Travis will sometimes go up to the line and change the play call. He does that a lot. I don’t think he ever did that last year. Is he suddenly smarter now? Did he magically, over the course of one off season, gain the ability to read defenses where he had no such ability last year? I don’t…[Read more]

While we’re at it, could we please add a category to discuss the Trans-Siberian Railroad?

Don’t. Seriously. Please do not add a politics or religion category. That was my biggest turn-off about the UFN site. Zoob comedy always turned into religion bashing. Political posts were divisive.

Don’t. Do. It.

YodaUte replied to the topic Booker amazing plays in the forum Football 9 years, 2 months ago

I’ve never understood that logic. Is he any more likely to be injured on the last play of the game than in the 29 plays before that? If you’re going to give the ball to Booker almost every play, there is a risk of injury. I think we just have to live with that risk.
