NEW: Some of the "Whitt does best with he back against the wall" is wearing off. Utah's back was against the wall all last year and it never got much better. (nm) BaldHatu - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 01:38 pm [ID# 1477320] [reply]

NEW: That worked when Gary Andersen was the DC and we had a very expereinced OC, but hasn't really worked since then. (nm) Puget Ute - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 02:00 pm [ID# 1477335] [reply]

NEW: BYU does not lose their whole defense - their best player is returning. And they have upgraded their OC significantly. sancho - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 01:46 pm [ID# 1477323] [reply]

NEW: Also, WSU will be much improved. The Cougar team that beat UW was vastly improved from the team that everybody else boatraced this year, and I expect to see more of that killer instinct. Puget Ute - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 02:03 pm [ID# 1477338] [reply]

NEW: We played WSU a couple of weeks before that and beat them 49-6. It's called a rivalry game (their win vs Wash). We were 43 points better than them with a crappy offense. We will be better next year as well. (nm) Ute2004 - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 02:06 pm [ID# 1477343] [reply]

NEW: Did you even watch the game? Our offense happened to click on all cylinders, our Defense played like monsters, John White had 3 TDs, and Reggie Dunn had a 100 yd KRTD. WSU was in the middle of a team mutiny and their offense completely fell apart. Puget Ute - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 02:24 pm [ID# 1477356] [reply]

NEW: So, why do you think WSU will be much improved and not Utah? Utah had a new OC, three QB's, new LB'ers, White had been hurt a lot, DVC problems, etc. (nm) Ute2004 - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 02:57 pm [ID# 1477376] [reply]

NEW: I didn't say Utah won't win, but that the game should be a toss up and not a guaranteed win. I will call my shot now: WSU beats byu in Pullman in 2013. Puget Ute - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 03:25 pm [ID# 1477387] [reply]

NEW: Leach's quirkiness and football genius is very much similar to Majerus. Sometimes crapping in a towel can be very motivating. (nm) Biggest T - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 04:48 pm [ID# 1477432] [reply]

NEW: Puget are you a WASU alumnist or something? They got destroyed by both Utah and BYU and both teams could potentially be stronger next season. rbentz - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 05:59 pm [ID# 1477470] [reply]

NEW: Correction: Utah destroyed WSU. BYU-Provo escaped with a win despite 3 dropped, wide open, certain TD catches by Wilson, and despite going 2 for 6 in the Red Zone at the end of the game. Puget Ute - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 06:41 pm [ID# 1477478] [reply]

NEW: For the record, I see WSU as a 3-9 to 6-6 team next year. Utah is a 4-8 to 6-6 team, posisbly 7-5 if 'ball goes in hoop'. Anything better than that will be gravy. (nm) Puget Ute - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 03:28 pm [ID# 1477389] [reply]

NEW: Last offseason we lost our best CB and all three of our LBers, but kept our best player (and arguably the best player in the country). How did that work our for us? BYU loses a lot on their defense this year, more than Utah last. That unit will not (short) Ute2004 - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 02:04 pm [ID# 1477339] [reply]

NEW: Fine, call them 40-60% games if you prefer. It's not an exact science. That point is, those are the hardest games to predict. Each of those teams has question marks too. (nm) sancho - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 02:15 pm [ID# 1477351] [reply]

NEW: Also, Anae is a great OC against MWC/WAC teams. Against good teams? Eh. Ute2004 - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 02:14 pm [ID# 1477349] [reply]

NEW: An upgrade is an upgrade. Maybe they beat Boise and Notre Dame this year with a better OC. (nm) sancho - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 02:17 pm [ID# 1477352] [reply]

NEW: 3 wins likely, and a possible 4th win. I haven't seen nor heard anything that provides me confidence that the Utes will do any better than that. (nm) SeaTacUte - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 01:51 pm [ID# 1477325] [reply]

NEW: Also major concerns at the most important position - QB, no offensive identity and still with a very suspect OC. (nm) SeaTacUte - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 01:57 pm [ID# 1477334] [reply]

NEW: This has been Utah's biggest fail the last three years. This next year will be the best our QB position has been since before the Iowa St game...and it still isn't very good at all. Here is to hoping BJ and Wilson make HUGE strides this offseason. (nm) Ute2004 - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 02:02 pm [ID# 1477336] [reply]

NEW: I don't think Kelvin York is going to be much of a drop off. He was performing better than JWIV before he got injured. (nm) UtahMUSS - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 02:03 pm [ID# 1477337] [reply]

NEW: Not so sure SC is a probable loss. I know we are at their place next year, but Wittek isn't very good, and who knows how good Browne will be. After all, he is coming from the same school Heaps came from, and Kiffen might be as terrible as Roscoe. UtahMUSS - -- Tuesday 8 January 2013, at 02:08 pm [ID# 1477345] [reply]
