conference-opener Stories - Block U
Five things to look for Saturday: USC edition
Utah's first conference game in the Pac-12 is a doozy, as they take on the program that, for much of the 21st Century, has dominated the conference. These might not be your older brother's USC Trojans, but they're still one of the most talented programs in the country and, at home, are good enough...
Runnin' Utes lose conference opener to Air Force
Utah is now below .500 on the season and quickly fading to the cellar of the Mountain West Conference. This loss is their fifth in a row - the longest losing streak since Ray Giacoletti lost six in his final season. It's also one more nail in Jim Boylen's ever sinking coffin, even though he missed...

25-24 That's the average score of a Utah-Colorado State game from 1995 to 2005. During that span, the Utes were only 2-6 against the Rams (with those two wins coming under Urban Meyer in 2003 & 2004). The average score, though, is actually in Utah's favor by .5-points due to their complete and...
The Morning Blitz: Daily Utah links
As the Utes enter conference play, have expectations really changed much since the beginning of the season? I think most of us would take a 3-1 start, knowing that it probably meant they lost in Eugene against the Ducks. With how Oregon has looked post-Utah, that loss doesn't seem all that bad now....
The Morning Blitz: Daily Utah links
Beyond adverse weather that could handicap Utah's offense, I think this game Saturday will give us an idea of what to really expect for the remainder of the season. I say this because Colorado State is not a good defensive team and if the Utes do struggle moving the ball, especially in the absence...
