Official Holy War Thread: Utah @ BYU

[Duck Rodgers]

The good news for Utah fans is that Colorado might be the worst team in the country this year so you'll never be the bottom spot on ESPN's bottom ten.

 

[prodigy]

looking at BYU's schedule looks like the bottom ten would be reserved for future BYU opponents

 

[Ron Mexico]

Not only are their tickets but StubHub tickets are going for less than face value.

Yeah and those teams you play probably will:
San Jose St
Idaho
Idaho St
New Mexico St

i guess consider yourself lucky you're not playing another cellar dweller in Louisiana Tech

That is what happens when your season is over before week 3 starts.

Hello armed forces bowl. Best case senario for BYU now.

pretty sad, i was watching the utes armed forces bowl game from 2006 and there weren't many fans at the game even though it was a good game

Lol @ Heaps. Utes ahead by 7 barely a minute into the game without the Ute offense even taking the field yet.

That was probably the funniest play of the entire rivalry. Everyone knows which one I'm talking about.

Considering the Ute defense has scored more points than it's offense, I can't say that the Ute offense is going to make much of a difference.

As long as the offense doesn't turn it over the Utes should be in good shape.

 

[NUMBERICA]

Also, someone has to make a .gif of that play.

 

[NUMBERICA]

I'd rather lose to the Cougars than lose Bergstrom for the season.

 

[NUMBERICA]

Wow. Utah's kicker is even worse than advertised.

 

[SaltyDawg]

How do you miss a 29 yard fg by 15+ yards? Horrible.

 

[NUMBERICA]

This is Utah's problem; the two individuals on their team that are traditionally most important for scoring points are ****ing awful. The defense has been coached to force turnovers - it seems - because everyone understands their offense can't do **** when it comes down to it.

I mean, seriously, who scores only 0 points on two turnovers and when in the red zone too?

 

[InGameStrategy]

Utes win because Cougars have no run game.

BYU does have a run game.

They just don't have a hold-onto-the-ball run game <<sigh>>.

[Suggestion: Close the poll down! (Currently 19 voters for Utah vs. 14 for BYU.)]

2Q 6:23 Touchdown Heaps to Apo; 10-7 after PAT.

 

[Safetydan]

Good game

 

[InGameStrategy]

2Q 4:34 BYU senior CB Corby Eason drops a wide-open interception.
BYU letting some yards go and making mistakes (another pass interference) but being aggressive & bringing some clean hurt (first Wynn (now back), now WR Christopher)
2Q 3:29--just over a minute of play later--Kyle van Noy holds onto the ball on INT

 

[Scat]

#10 for Utah should have stayed in bed today.

So far Utah's best player has been BYU's center.

 

[Archie Moses]

BYU is gonna get rolled over.
