The Morning Blitz: Daily Utah links

I really am surprised at how many people have decided to join the Utah bandwagon. Of course, I think as much of this has to do with Oregon's struggles as it does with Utah's strengths, but I'll take it. 

There are more pundits and bettors and blowhards picking the Utes to win. 

Let's hope they're right!

Someone explain to me...

how picking USC over UW is a “great” pick.

Yes.

They are idiots. But it seems everyone is on the Washington Upset Train. Maybe picking against that is great. Who knows.

TO BE COMPLETELY FAIR,

Holtz is a joke.
If you think otherwise you can go back to ND.

But still.
Like every game this year so far, this is completely Oregon’s to lose.
Offense shows up/moves the ball at all, the ducks win.
If not, Utes leave pretty happy.
