AZ wildcats have me a bit nervous

Yep. They should be happy. They just dominated the two time P12 Champion. Turned out to be a solid team.

Yep we were beaten decisively. AZ is a team on the rise. They may have a bright future if their school doesn’t have to declare bankruptcy

Resorting to school funding smack to feel better :grimacing:

Well, at least the delusional TDS lost.

The pig farmer stank today

Disagree. Putting it all on him is silly.

Edit: over 250 yards passing and 53 more running.

I’m not saying it was all him (we wouldnt have won with Rising today), but he wasn’t good today.

It was a team loss. Whit didn’t have the team prepared to start the game, and it showed. It has been a long, long time since I have seen Utah fall behind 28-0 in the first 16 minutes. And you can’t give up a blocked punt and throw a red-zone INT (and one other INT) and expect to be in a position to win.

On TV, we can’t see what’s going on in the backfield, but it sure looks like Bryson is having a hard time finding anybody open.

Get Johnson in. What’s the point of having Barnes in right now?

Just count the rushers. We’re sending five receivers into 7 or 8 defenders every time.

I’m rooting for the Beavers tonight and next week. Let chaos reign and screw anyone going to the Big10

And now Bills limping. :man_facepalming:t3:

Old LV bowl was like conference #5. New LV bowl is #2 after Alamo. Hopefully 2 in NY6, Alamo, LV, Holiday, Sun, LA Bowl, Independence. We’re probably bound for one of the latter 3.

Last time we lost by 25 or more was 2019 Alamo Bowl

The last two games we’ve seen amazing lapses. In the second half of the Washington game, as Bill Riley said, Utah simply didn’t execute. They weren’t changing anything they were doing, they just couldn’t get things done.
The first half of this game they were practically not there.

I think Diehard might be right, the guys just ran out of the gas they needed in the tank to overcome injury setback after injury setback.

That was fun to attend, right up to kickoff.

Crazy thing is, Utah has outgained UA 450 (a really good number) to 392 and have 25 first downs to their 20. Again, the picks, blocked punt, and penalties have been killers.

Crazy game. You look at the yardage and 1st down stats and you’d guess us 31-27. 2 turnovers + blocked punt TD turned the tides. We had more yards, more 1st downs, more TOP (UA had more quick big plays). Ball didn’t go on the hoop. Lost as a team.

So we get a little tiny bit of pride back with a touchdown, plus the Bryson Barnes two point conversion. I’ll take it. Keep fighting until the end. Impressive.

I’m going to say it right now, Whit gets the team ready, erases this debacle from their minds, and Utah beats Colorado by at least four touchdowns next week.
