Aw, come on!

WHERE’S THE PASSION?

Would anyone say “he’s only an hour off” if it was Michigan State/Nebraska? Oklahoma/Kansas State?

This is the biggest game of the day! (for us!) :-D

park at trolley square

700 e and 600 southish. Then take the trax up to the stadium. That’s what we always do, saves time and traffic up by the stadium.

The OfficeMax

on 4th south and 900 east has finally given up the ghost in defending their parking lot, you can use about half of it and take Trax from there.

Jon Hays Abortion

We should all start referring to Jon Hays as “Roe v. Wade” because he should have been aborted. Worst QB I’ve ever seen at Utah.

by Frank Zappa on Oct 29, 2011 8:18 AM MDT reply actions   1 recs

If he screws up today..

he’ll be referred to as “Jon Doe”… because forensics wont be able to identify him

by Pac12UoU on Oct 29, 2011 12:40 PM MDT up reply actions  

You've just gone a Bridge Too Far.

He may suck, but REALLY? Aborted? Harsh dude, harsh.

by uteowl on Oct 29, 2011 2:09 PM MDT up reply actions  

Yeah this is a bit much.

I actually really like Hays’ attitude and the kid has heart that you can’t coach. Unfortunately I am not wild about his arm or ability to read a defense.

by H2O_UTE on Oct 29, 2011 3:47 PM MDT up reply actions  

We've got this one guys...

While I’m not 100% confident…I like our chances tonight.

First, our D is still very good. I know it’s hard to remember that when you look at what happened vs. UW, ASU, Cal…but look at what Pitt did this week, & without Ray Graham. Look at USC. I think the D comes out fired up & stifles OrSt.

Second, Oregon St. hasn’t been particularly strong at run D…or overall defense for that matter. I think we’ll establish the run, which will allow Hays to just play ball control offense…which is what we did against Pitt.

Third, Christopher is back. Perhaps we’ve forgotten what a huge part of the offense he is, but without him, Dunn is the only WR who isn’t a freshman. We need him to open up the passing lanes & I think he will break off a big play today.

Fourth, Oregon St. isn’t ranked very high in the Sagarin rankings. While they have been playing better as of late, we haven’t lost to a team rated lower than 45 & I believe Oregon St. is ranked 103 currently.

I like to think I’m a realist. I wasn’t confident in us winning any game up until now…but I have a good feeling today. Let’s get on track Utah!

by Middy_U on Oct 29, 2011 9:18 AM MDT reply actions  

You had me at...

“Christopher is back”.

DVC 10 is gonna go… godlike! (If whoever QBs will get it anywhere near his general vicinity that is)

Chilly Today

It’s going to be a cold one folks, high so far in salt lake is 46 degrees.

by utahmanami on Oct 29, 2011 11:51 AM MDT reply actions  

In Dallas...

But I’m in black… May the Utez bring it home… May Jon Hays finally have a good game… May the defense have more takeaway’s than the offense has giveaway’s… May the Utez roll forth as an unstoppable force…

May they show their true potential…

That is all.

Now give us a good game boys so I don’t have to burn it. :)

More than Hays...

It seems most people at least like Hays.

He makes mistakes, but he has enough heart that you want to root for him. Cullen just manages to piss you off while causing penalties.

He's still under-throwing the ball

He had a nice run, and White has been able to rack up over 50 yards so the pressure isn’t as heavy on him.

by Hawnk on Oct 29, 2011 6:30 PM MDT up reply actions  

confidence is good

However… it does not justify him doing stupid plays. I can see a HUGE difference with Hays. There was a running play that he could of runnned out of bounds or be stupid and run into a defender. He chose the first which means he is playing smarter

Feels good to have the W

I’m a little concerned about the lack of offense in the 2nd half. The problem is if we face a half decent defense, they know they can stack the box and dare Hays to beat them in the air.
