There's only so much you can tell from one game. Utah is one of the more consistent programs in the nation and I think they just had a rough outing. Let's see how they do against Notre Dame next week (I assume Utah will win by 15-20 points).

Plus, most of this talk went on during the 2008 season when Utah physically whipped Alabama, the mighty SEC West champions. There were those who thought Utah was a joke after Michigan and Oregon State played them tightly. I think Utah is 8-2 vs. the BCS in their last 10. I bet now that Utah has joined the Pac-12, Orrin Hatch will find that this ceases to be an issue :roll:

2000-2010, Utah has a .645 average against BCS teams.....about one half of its wins against BCS teams were against teams with non winning records for the year.

Utah's record improves the last four seasons...with wins over 6-7 UCLA, 6-6 Louisville, 3-9 Michigan, 4-8 Louisville, 5-3 Pitt (so far), and 5-5 Iowa St.(so far). Also wins over 9-4 Oregon St., 8-5 Cal, and 12-2 Alabama.

Which basically says what everyone already knows - that Utah isn't "big time" good every year, but there are years in which they have had a team good enough.

"Not our concern"...is not in this administrations vocabulary Sir. :roll:

Neither is "leadership" for that matter.

These busybody's are the people that Benjamin Franklin was talking about in the following quote.

"Man will ultimately be governed by God or by tyrants"

They cannot leave well enough alone. Their authority to deal with these matters, does not matter to them.

I sense the death of college football as we know it is coming once these goons get involved......MAYBE the AQ conference President's should dress in Black Panther garb and go intimidate people at the polling booths???? :roll: :roll:
They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.

The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.

See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.
