You know who else has a horse face?
Jennifer Garner. Much prettier horse than SJP, but a horse nonetheless.

Wow, TCU gets jobbed, PI gives Boise State an automatic first down.
Even though Moore was flushed out of the pocket and threw up a bad pass that was pretty uncatchable. Pathetic call.

4th and 5. TCU bends, but doesn't break there.
Should be a FG, though.

Ive heard
about some NFL potential on TCU’s D – did they single out anyone

TCU's defense is getting the Moore (BSU's QB) pretty well.
I missed the first play of the game, but I don’t think their QB has connected on much (the only successful play was a PI).
by JazzyUte on Dec 23, 2008 6:13 PM MST reply actions 0 recs
Yeah, tell me about it. This is a big defensive possession for TCU.
They can’t afford to fall behind 10-0.

no - I think Ive got TCU by 7

Boise State abusing the TCU defense. Another easy first and down.
Marching quickly down field.

TD Broncos. Yikes.
This is getting ugly.
by JazzyUte on Dec 23, 2008 6:25 PM MST reply actions 0 recs
Yeah, so was I.
I thought TCU’s defense was really good.
Maybe BSU is just a really good team. Kind of pisses me off the Utes struggled against this defense. Boise State is ripping ’em.
by JazzyUte on Dec 23, 2008 6:27 PM MST up reply actions 0 recs
I think TCU needs to move the ball on this drive or it could be over.
If they get another three and out, it’s going to be a ugly game.

Frogs running game is blowing through Boise State's line.
I didn’t understand the pass first offense being ran out of the gate.
by JazzyUte on Dec 23, 2008 6:44 PM MST reply actions 0 recs
TCU's defense playing solid right now. Hold BSU here and they should get good field position.

Not really, except when we're fighting for BCS berths.
Like in 2004 and 2008, where Utah won out. I don’t like ’em, tho.

Pretty much.
There isn’t much recruiting wars and since we’re not in the same conference, the rivalry is minimal.
by JazzyUte on Dec 23, 2008 8:48 PM MST up reply actions 0 recs
gotcha
that was about all I knew before coming in….
You guys both recruit same player types / territories?

With BYU? Yeah, especially local talent.
Though Utah is now recruiting Texas and California for speed, while BYU seems to be content with recruiting big, slow players.

I don't think anyone thought Utah would win.
I was conceding defeat.
Had someone told me after the Beaver score we’d win in regulation, I’d have laughed at them.

We really became beaver fans this year
Their people, their team and their coach all won us over a good bit. I even now tune in at Building the Dam sometimes too.

Ok, so now TCU can end it with a long drive here.
With how poorly BSU’s defense is playing, I can see them running the clock down.

This game is going to give me a stroke. I don't know how I'll be able to watch the Sugar Bowl.

How you like your prospects?

I honestly don't know. I think Utah keeps it close, though.
If I were a betting man, I think you’d have to bet on Alabama, but it’s a good match-up because Bama doesn’t have an explosive offense, so it should keep Utah in the game. If that happens, one or two plays, with no turnovers, could change the outcome in Utah’s favor.
by JazzyUte on Dec 23, 2008 9:05 PM MST up reply actions 0 recs
fair enough
I’ll buy that.

I still can't believe
FLA beat them by 11 in the end. I thought Bama had em and had em worn down.

You have to give the QB some safe read.

Do they have to run it?
Can’t they knee the ball and run the clock out?

So now onto the Sugar Bowl.
Utah now has a chance to be the lone undefeated.
