Nice.
You sure he will be better than White though? White was pretty dang good.
What were the injury issues by the way?

Nice.

What were the injury issues by the way?
You didn't ask if they were bringing in someone better than White, just who projected to be better. White was really good and better than expected, but don't forget that he was not projected to be a starter when he committed to The U. He exceeded any expectations and won the starting job, but York rates as a better recruit.
York is coming off a knee injury, which is scary, but if he heals up, he could give the Utes a monster backfield.
And with a monster backfield, they can go undefeated....

My vision is 20/20, bitch. Perhaps you should go see your optometrist followed by a visit to the face doctor, because, damn.
About friggin' time.

You pick the 3 games you think they will lose, and I'll happily bet they win at least 1 of them.
As for them going undefeated, lets see who the OC is before we go there. I clearly stated that I couldn't see them losing more than 2 games, and possibly go undefeated if they fix the offense. If you disagree, pick your 3 games and we'll bet. And we can revisit the undefeated after I find out if the offense is fixed or not.
Like I said, even the haters will have a hard time going on record and predicting more than 2 of those games as losses. And this is a Pac 12 schedule we're talking about here, not a WAC schedule.

Well you obviously never learned to comprehend what you read, lol. Let me quote from my original post:
So, like I said, if you disagree, pick your 3 games (I said more than 2) and we'll bet. And if you only want to bet on them going undefeated, then we can revisit that after we know how the offense is going to look.
Like I said, even the haters will have a hard time going on record and predicting more than 2 of those games as losses. Clearly, that rings true. And this is a Pac 12 schedule we're talking about here, not a WAC schedule.
Now haters, you can go ahead and point out that I said clearly. The content of my post is spot on, so lets point out that I said clearly and hope some retard finds it humorous.

Anyone here want to play for Utah Basketball? Maybe you played a bit in HS? Here's your chance to live your dream and play Div I! Remember folks, you'll even have a chance to play against real Pac-12 competition! Salty, you got a killer crossover dribble, don't you?

Wow, for a split second there I thought he said "some good hoppers". <shudder>

Man, we all know there is no bigger Ute fan than me... But I'm pretty sure there are tons of people who never played in high school who could improve that team. Utah basketball sucks right now.
Sadly, holding tryouts would probably actually improve the team.
Look, I obviously don't know the team as well as you do, Salty, so tell you what...since you've got the Utes going at least 10-2 next year, I'll give YOU the advantage and let you pick 10 games they'll win. If they lose one of those ten, I win.
$100?

So you're saying you aren't qualified to disagree with me, and then going on to disagree with me anyway?
If you think Utah will lose 3 games, list them and we'll bet.
Otherwise, it's pretty awesome when even the biggest haters on the board can't go on the record and predict 3 losses out of a PAC 12 schedule. So much for all that crap about Utah being the Colorado State of the PAC 12.
I just set some pretty simple terms. Do you need me to repeat them? Or are you backing down from your 10-win prediction?
That's what I thought.

Not backing down at all. My offer stands. List the games you're betting on and I'll bet whatever amount you want.
So...you DON'T think they'll win 10, then. It takes a man to admit he made a mistake. I salute you.

To chicken **** to bet? Gotcha. Keep talking. When you're ready to put your money where your mouth is, let me know (we both know you won't).
It sure is nice when even the biggest haters on the board have to admit they're too chicken **** to predict 3 losses out of a PAC 12 schedule. I guess Utah isn't the Colorado State of the PAC 12 after all.

USC is going to be a mighty tough game but IMO the Thursday night setting is going to give Utah their best possible chance of knocking them off. A national TV spotlight game, a hostile crowd, and an amped up team are usually the key ingredients for an upset. Is it likely? Probably not but certainly stranger things have happened.
Even though Cal is @ Utah, that game could still be a loss. Cal is returning alot of the players that beat Utah's *** this last year. The same thing can be said about the game up in Washington. Even with the huge question mark at QB, I think next years Utah team is talented enough all-around to go 9-and-3. If they get a little lucky and get good production and not alot of mistakes out of the QB spot, maybe even better.
Oh, and one more thought: Utah is going to absolutley DRiLL Reily Tebow and his buddies from down south. It might not end up being another 44 point win, but it will look pretty damn similar. After that, Chris Hill won't renew the series which will allow BYU to start scheduling a more winnable game in place of Utah.

C'mon, you haven't even listed ONE team that the Utes will beat. And you call yourself a fan. For shame.
And, for the record, I've ALREADY put my money where my mouth is (see post #1212). You haven't listed your guaranteed victories yet. That's ok -- I can respect a man who protects his money.

You haven't put your money anywhere. If you want to bet, then list the games you want to bet on.
You can't do that? Yeah, I know. It's just hollow hating when in reality you know I'm right. I know it pains you to admit Utah is the best and most successful program in the state
And if you decide to predict 3 Utah losses, let me know. We'll bet whatever amount you want, on any 3 regular season games you want.
You pick the games, any 3, and any amount. Can't back up your smack any better than that.
There you have it. Haters will be quick to call me a homer, but good luck finding one who will bet against it.
