GAME DAY! GAME DAY! GAME DAY!
Game day is finally here! After months and months of speculation and talk and endless predictions, we're finally only hours away from the start of the 2010 season.
How 'bout that?
We've actually been lucky because this entire off-season was dominated by college football news. We're not going to see something like that for a while and I guarantee you next summer will drag with what awaits the football program in September 2011.
But right now, it's September 2010 and that means a new season.
Not long from now, Ute fans from all across the state will venture up to the campus and begin tailgating hours before the game.
We'll eat, we'll drink and then as dusk begins to cast an orange glow over the Salt Lake Valley, we'll head toward the stadium for the first time since November of last year.

There we'll settle into our seats and cheer on the Utes - hopefully to victory.
It's been a long summer. At 6:30 tonight, summer unofficially ends and the football season begins.
GO UTES!

Cougar fan here
(The good kind, but not that good kind.)
Anyway, i’ll be rooting for you guys this year. Go Pac-12!
See . . .
Mormons are funny!
Thanks man, good luck to you guys and here’s hoping our game settles the conference in Novenber!
Oh, yes I missed that
Sorry Spencer, but here’s hoping you beat Washington this year and we start a long, greta series of games renewing our past trials to gether.
I love Pullman and teh Palouse Empire, I dearly hope to get out there for a gamne some year.
Yeah, we all need to get used to the fact that Cougar != BYU
I keep accidentally eating my pets. Maybe I should get something less appetizing, like a cat instead of a Twinkie.

For all intents and purposes,
we are simply the cougs. I only said cougars so my not-so-funny links would work. Anyway, how confident are you guys in the game tonight?

I'm fairly confident
I like that this game is at home. I think Rice Eccles Stadium is going to be rockin’ tonight.
I would be surprised if Pitt won by more than a TD, but not if Utah did. I see it either staying close, or Utah coming on really strong. But maybe that’s just the optimist in me.

woot
i think i can see myself in that 2nd picture
Finally
No I hope every bastard on every board and blog out there is happy for making me personally wait so long for college football.
I forgive you all this one time, do not let it happen again.
Utah, Utah, Utah!
ugh..
Well I can’t sleep it’s going to be a long day before I get to drive up to the stadium. I am getting butterflies thinking about seeing our boys running out of the tunnel.

I wish I were there!!
I will have to settle for watching the game on my big screen with many of my fellow Ute fans here in Orange County. I am so excited. I love the feeling of game day. It’s just too bad that I will be completely useless at work today.
Utah Game Playing in Orange County
Hey OC UTE- they will be paying the Utah v Pitt Game this evening at the restaurant /bar in the artist village in Santa Ana called Lola Gaspar. Great place! Great food and Drink! Great environment!
Should be a good time.
Yuck
Joe Beninati is calling the game on Versus. Anyone who watches hockey on Versus, knows how bad Beninati is.

I'm terrified that I may miss all or part of the game.
See I have this little problem where I have satellite and a hurricane is blowing in tonight. Bad weather + satellite = no tv = no Utah game. Seriously, can’t I get some kind of a hurricane waiver on the night of a big Utah game?
Do you have internet during the storm?
If so, justin.tv is your friend.
Everyone hates a pink-shirt-wearing communist.
Good luck Utah
This Cal fan will be rooting for you guys from Sacramento.

Not only to I have to listen to NPR, I have to recycle too?!
Before the events of the summer CAL was my PAC 10 school. Now we’re a house divided. I was looking forward to them being in the same PAC 12 division.
Earl won't bother me
…at least I hope not. Be safe NC Ute. Fingers crossed the power doesn’t fail me and sat signal stays strong. My laptop will be charged just in case. Go Utes!
Y'all sleep?
Damn! 3am… really? I hope y’all have enough gas to get through the game?! You know you can’t just rely on porn, alcohol, websights, and crack…. you need sleep too. But enough of the public service announcement. I’m heading into the office around 2pm, see a few clients, home by 5:30, and then IT’S ON!!! Friday’s are my day off and I am looking forward to blissful recovery!
Heres to a night that kicks off one hell of MTW swan song and top 20 ranking in week 2!
GO UTES!
MAN-CAVE READY FOR UTES
My daily countdown is over…IT’S HERE! Tonight i get to sit back in my newly made garage mah-jal adorned with drum & feathers, red rope-lights, flags and manly adult beverages and enjoy the Utes on my first ever HDTV broadcast in HD and while it’s on Versus, i will endure, muting every commercial i see and getting re-fills in the process! Whew!! Let the rise to another unbeaten season and the MWC championship begin!!
