Well now we'll get to see just how good these Utes are. 

I don't know what to expect this afternoon. I'm guessing I am not the only one. While I picked Oregon to win earlier in the week, I've got to say I do feel good about the Utes' chances. Only because I think this team is still extremely talented and if they put it together, they'll be difficult to stop.

Unfortunately, we haven't seen that yet this season and it explains why Utah has had two very lackluster wins. But sometimes it takes a formidable opponent to bring the best out in you. We saw this last season, where the Utes looked fairly decent against lesser teams, but far from spectacular. Hopefully this is that case and Utah rises to the occasion and gets a huge road win.
