We Muss Protect This House
I think Utah gets up for this one, Hays has a Ratliff break-out game and we win a close one today.
Our defense has to step up and stop ASU’s run game though. That is my biggest concern.
Hays
I’m really liking Hays attitude thus far. He talks like a guy with that blue collar chip on his shoulder a lot of overlooked QBs have. I am just hopeful that translates to on the field success.
Or at a minium protecting the football and not giving it away.
Any online streams for the game? Stuck at work.

Just grab the ball out of the air if it’s there inside the 10.
Utes need one more score to put ASU back on their heels.

Prevent defense needs work,.
If you’re going to rush three, you actually have to, you know, rush three.
We don't have the secondary to play prevent...
If we’re not bringing pressure, we’re going to get beat.
I would think that applies to everyone.
You can’t let any QB sit back there forever.
This is where are defense starts to break down
Staying on the field this long takes its toll
So we're down 3...
Same as Washington…
…but we get the ball coming out of the half. I hope we make some adjustments offensively.
That was rookie...
Throw it away. Take the FG.
He’ll learn.
Whether we get 3 or 7
One benefit of this is that our d gets an extra 1:20 to rest before half, then we get ball.
could that pick BE any more easy?

No that was just a bone-headed move by an inexperienced young QB....he saw the pressure and just tossed it up

Glad to be down only three...
But fear ASU is going to open things up in second half.
by JazzyUte on Oct 8, 2011 3:02 PM MDT via mobile reply actions
No, in second half
I Optimistically predict that Hays becomes a hero, and cements his spot in Utes lore!
Hays isn't reading his progressions
and locking in on the first option. ASU is all over that. No surprise he has 2 picks. Needs to settle down and not force it.
shitty call norm chow call a draw
Take 3

Utes need to keep Asiata in backfield in FB position.
He is a beast blocker! he is killing guys!
ASU has a history of panic, and self-imolation.
A long and well established history, at that.
You just need to play well, and crank up the pressure. They’ll do the rest.

I'm really concerned about how we'll do against the bottom of the Pac-12 at this point.
Unless the offense shows me something on this drive.
Seems that the strength of the bottom of the league is Offense, and while our D has been stout…they can only hold up for so long…as we’re seeing right here & vs. Wash last week.
We can’t win in a shootout, IMO.
I hate to say it,
but your offense kinda sucks.

Probably bad karma to say this when James may not play for a while.
It's been generous to a fault.
Ball security has been a bit of an afterthought.
Unfortunately one more TD and this one is done
Utes are not much of a comeback type of team
I don't want to get out of charachter...but this game isn't out of reach.
Let’s just get a score here. Coaching needs to keep these guys focused.

by Gekko Mojo on Oct 8, 2011 5:19 PM MDT via mobile up reply actions
In the "non-grind"...
…New Mexico (etc.) can’t force fumbles like a Pac-12 athlete can, so I agree.
…but if we’re turning over the ball +3 in the MWC, we’re losing there too…that’s my point.
Turnovers can be “forced”, but the also can be coached away. Urban Meyer was a genius at that. Utah players need some coaching in that dept. (Captain Obvious told me that). The emotional toll this is taking on the D is obvious. They play like 2 different units between the 1st & 2nd half the last 2 games. Look at the USC game for a better example of a complete effort from the D…and all because the TO’s were managed.
The point is, the margin is much slimmer.
In the Pac, ONE turnover can kill you against any team. 4 is suicide.

You can even play a very good game and lose.
UO @ UA ‘09 was a freaking classic. UA had the game in the bag and would be in the driver’s seat for their first-ever Rose Bowl with a win. They had the lead by 7 and were driving for the capper when Foles threw deep into the endzone. The receiver got his hands on the ball, it bounced up an into the hands of our CB for the int with a shade over 3 minutes left. Ducks drive 80 yards to tie the game then win in 2OT. Arizona played a heck of a game, but eventually lost it due to a freakish chance interception.

We need a different drinking game.
We would never remember the game if we take a shot after each utah turnover..
I'm sorry, but these last two games have reminded me of pre-1994 football
Where we are just outmanned and outplayed by superior teams. Even without the turnovers, I’m not sure we’d win this game.
Yeah, but they've been on the field every play. There is no way they're not exhausted.
Had the offense given any kind of drive they’d be fine
I'm sure they are, but ASU hasn't slowed down and they're playing at altitude
I’ve been impressed by their offense today. Too bad it’s coming at our expense
Agreed, but they have a lot more depth than we do.
We could have kept up if our defense got a few minutes to breath.
This team is a joke
It honestly funny to watch a team that is terrible. i feel like a raiders fan lol. I wonder if ASU can put up 20 more before its done. Next time I see Utah favored I’m putting my savings account on the line against them.
I hate the "If's & but's" mentality...
…but what would the Utah football world be like without these turnovers?
I still think we would be down...it would be closer and we wouldn't be rolling over and playing dead like teh D has done here, but...
ASU has the better players and is the better team
I am a guy who always watches the whole game...
But it might behoove me as a Utah fan to only watch the first half for the rest of the year. I think we could win the rest of the games!
I thought that coaching would prevent this...
I thought that the experience of this staff, plus a few guys that had a high talent level, I did not see us being 0-3 in conference. Not close. Not even with worst case scenario.
my god how many times have we turned it over? my stream went out ever since we got the lead..they're 35 and have the ball?

The margin of error is tremendously lower
You can’t take plays off in the Pac-12. Utah has played good for 30 minutes but then they shoot themselves in the foot and keep the defense on for too long. the grind is real but when you are beating yourself, it makes the opposing teams job that much more easy.
If I hear one more Pac-12 fan say the words “every week” I will punch someone out. YES, WE GET IT THE PAC-12 is BETTER THAN THE MWC.

Admitting it is the first step towards recovery.
Seriously though, most of us thought UU would be somewhat “down” this year, and it’s just bad luck that the first 3 conference teams you’ve faced were USC @ USC, a resurgent Washington, and P12-South favorite ASU. If it had been UCLA, Wazzu, and Arizona things might be different. Might.

No game breakers from what I've seen.
Losing Wynn has something to do with that, no doubt. But the Pac-12 is loaded with really awesome pass-catchers, and I’m not seeing any on your roster.
Dunn could be, if he could catch/hang on to the ball...
Christopher needs better speed, obviously, but he’s a good possession WR. Anderson & Scott could really develop during the off-season. They look good already.
Plus we have that Baylor transfer. I like our WR core tremendously in 2012.
Maybe it was more fun...
Beating up on MWC teams, and talking about how the BCS does not give us our due than this. That is a pessimistic view, and things will get better, but I am a fan, and I live in the right now.
I know you are right...
But these losses hurt. Utah was the big dog in the conference, and now they are playing with a lot of equal competition. It is like every week is BYU and TCU. (and BYU is now unlv)
its like going from junior high to high school

If we’re not contending for the South in 2012, then I’ll be pissed.
UCLA, Oregon St., Washington St., Colorado...
I still don’t think this team is so bad that we can’t win those games. Get the turnovers under control, and we might steal one from Pitt, Cal, or Arizona.
Wazzu is still completely an unknown.
They’ve kicked FCS butt twice, lost to SDState, and beat a BAD Colorado team. Arizona is scary through the air and awful in every other respect.

The early start & time difference is brutal...
Oregon St. is a home game at least. Has to be 4 wins in there for this team. They look like they can hang with the 2nd tier of the Pac-12 when they’re not gift-wrapping the ball.
This ASU team is the one you've got to target.
USC is going down with those scholly limits.
No offense but I can't wait until we lose Cullen....he's a penalty magnet

A hypothetical cycle....
2004 Great year, 2008 Great year, 2012? I know this is not a realistic pattern or expectation but, I am still excited to see our continued growth and pac 12 experience this year, and see what the Utes can do next year. I am still expecting this team to be competitive and get several 12 pac wins this year.
Waaaaay too early for talk like that.
Then again how many of us could have predicted 2008 after the roller coaster ride of the 2007 season. This team has miles to grow.

Hypothetical, not realistic...
I agree one hundred and ten percent, but my job as a fan is too support, over react, and to dream, and i am dreaming the big dream. That being said, I am not asking for 14-0 and a national title game, but merely a team that wins these games, rather than lets them get out of hand at that fork in the road, and competes to be one of the best teams in this Pac 12.
We are competing. Just not for 60 minutes

Sure.
But did you think, with the question marks coming into this season, that it would happen this year? Due to longstanding intra-conference feuds, many of us were hoping for the Utes to win the South, but not many were especially bullish on your chances. BUT…Utah has built a program with a solid foundation of fan support. You’ve proven in the past that you can compete at the highest levels. You are going to reap the benefits of recruiting as a Pac-12 school and the rewards of the most lucrative TV rights deal in college sports history (for now). Keep up the support, your team will improve through this season, and you’ll be right there soon enough.

How is the PAC-12?
A couple things for you Utah fans. 1) The “U” belongs to Miami so maybe you should find another symbol. Maybe your QB should hold off flashing the “U” until the win not just a 1st down. 2) You are the WSU of the PAC 12 South. At this rate you won’t be bowling. Enjoy your PAC 12 experince.
Don't push you're luck loser
Jazzy will be ban happy to losers who have nothing better to do than kick us while we’re down.

It's not worth it to sweat over some douchebag who creates an account seconds after a team suffers a curb stomping just to rub it in
In fact, I’ve fed the troll just by writing this.
Bad Kadoogan!
Dude, serious?
Picking a fight behind the anonymity of the Internet is weak and douchy

Get lost you Troll
anyone can kick us while we’re down……get a life.

I have a life, it’s watching teams that don’t know their place. The ONLY chance Utah had at winning the BCS Championship is staying in the MWC. In the PAC 12 Utah plays in the Nut Bowl in SF. Have fun….
You are delusional.
I’d punch you in the fucking mouth in real life.
In real life you’re a pussy with a small dick complex, which is why you troll the Internet.
If you want to be a man and talk shit, get of the computer and go to a bar, you candy ass simpleton.
Independence means no one likes you...
While the armed forces bowl is a lofty team goal, the reality is that tds is a miracle away from being the third best team in the state, and after next week will be 0-2 vs Pac 12 teams.
Wow. What an almost unimaginably sad life.
Almost as sad as being a bad independent team that even your rivals don’t really care much about anymore.

Let me see if I can get this right on behalf of my Ute friends.
Typical loser Zoob signing up to make this post while his ass is still red from the kicking it got at RET.

You're in the PAC now, man.

In your case (and my niece's) I could probably be bothered to call 911 if I saw you bleeding on the road.

Let's be honest...is this really a surprise?
Wynn is gone remember? Most of those turnovers came from Hays.
He almost looked like....
A junior college transfer, who had only played one half of football at this level prior to this game.
true but those two fumbles were inexcusable as well
plus how many dropped passes were there?

Guess I can't blame the black pants....we just have no pulse on offense.
"Football isn't a contact sport; it's a collision sport. Dancing is a contact sport."
Vince Lombardi
There weren't as many dropped passes as it seemed...
they just came at critical times. Even with the fumbles, I think we could have won this game or at least we could have been competitive with Wynn. (No disrespect to Hays, he has great potential).
I wasn't expecting Hay's to become Peyton Manning but those three picks were more Hays forcing it than the defense making a play.

I agree,
hopefully he’ll learn and get better. He actually has really good tools.

Plus when he is doing well he is fun to root for....
Make a play, flash the U, lets make some more plays going for mr. Hays!
We are staring down the barrel of 4 straight losses...
The measure of this team is going to be @ Cal. We “could” win there…but that will be on the coaching staff to get this team to realize its potential.
I don’t see us winning vs. Pitt though. That early start is going to be brutal.
It shouldn't be too hard for you to recruit a good QB next year.
The Pac is so stacked with great QBs that top high school recruits won’t want to go somewhere just to be buried in the depth chart. At Utah they can go play immediately and that’s very attractive.
Agreed.
It’s a QB conference. Kids love that. Utah should reap the benefits. With CU and UU entering, a Loebbestal or an Osweiler might choose to go to UU rather than bide their time behind Threet and Tuel.

if we can keep a hold of the 2 we have coming in already (Hansen, Wilson)
and pick up 1 or 2 more (since 1 that’s already committed will be on a mission for 2 years) we should be in good shape at the QB position
