Predictions time

With Saturday's game only a couple days out now, I want to know where everyone stands on the score. I sometimes think I'm the only Ute fan who really does expect a win (beyond just hoping), so it'll be interesting to see if that is the case.

To make it easy, we'll do it in poll format. Just vote on the margin you think is most likely and then we start really getting ready for the big Showdown in Cowtown.

Poll

And the score will be...

Utah wins by 21-plus.

2 votes

Utah wins by 11-20 points.

6 votes

Utah wins by 6-10 points.

38 votes

Utah wins by 1-5 points.

98 votes

TCU wins by 1-5 points.

19 votes

TCU wins by 6-10 points.

33 votes

TCU wins by 11-20 points.

15 votes

TCU wins by 21-plus.

I'm with you Jazzy

I feel a lot like I did before the Sugar Bowl.

Overlooked, underrated, and disrespected.

War Utes!

Awesome!

If I had anything Irish outside of some old whiskey my grandfather brought over…I’d certainly wear that for the game.

But my lucky Sugar Bowl shirt will do. :D

Utah 21-17

I think TCU’s offense will be more productive this year than last as they are much improved. I expect our offense will catch TCU with a few plays they did not see coming that lead to a couple of quick scores that decide the game.

Over all it will be a hard fought defensive slug fest. We might even see Cain fill in like Louks did for Johnson before this game is over.

Hey, that's the score I picked in my preview. :)

I'm glad...

a lot of you guys are drinking the cool-aid right now.

I’m going to go ahead and take the pessimistic view on this one. I think the Frogs win 17 – 7. I really can’t see any way the Utes pull this one off. Barring 4 or 5 TCU turnovers or Dalton getting hurt I think TCU wins and goes onto the BCS. I just hope they represent the conference well.

Bah

No room for that kind of talk here…belly up to the bar and order a round of kool-aid…it makes the social environment more pleasant!

I agree.

The fact that Dalton is playing so well, and our offense 1) hasn’t wowed anyone; 2) features a guy making his first start on the road doesn’t bode well for this team.
