USC gets first Pac-12 win with blowout defeat of slumping Utes
I feared this after the UCLA debacle. When you're terrible overall, you're even worse on the road. The USC Trojans are not a good team. They entered tonight's game as the worst team in the conference record wise, had depth issues galore and still rolled the hapless Utes. I hate to say it, but all...
Road woes continue as Bruins rip awful Utes apart
No 1983 magic this year. The Runnin' Utes failed to show up to take on a struggling UCLA team and dropped their seventh straight on the road in embarrassing fashion. It marks yet another blowout loss for the program that has yet to find any traction away from the Jon M. Huntsman Center and...
Utah basketball hits new program low with 31 point home loss to CSU Fullerton
You want to believe this is the bottom. You want to believe it can't get much worse. Yet, every game, Utah seems to outdo itself. And that's exactly what they did Wednesday night at the Huntsman Center. Can anyone ever recall the last time a Pac-12 team lost, by thirty, to a Big West team? I'm...
With loss, Utes' bowl picture muddled
Prior to Friday's game, it seemed like Utah was pretty much a lock for either the Alamo or Holiday Bowl. That isn't the case anymore and now it's unclear where the Utes will land this holiday season. One loss and they've started tumbling down the bowl ladder. Where will they land? It's still...
Hard to imagine it'll ever get easier than that...
It was the perfect storm. USC, saddled with sanctions, was ineligible to play for the conference championship. Arizona State, a month ago thought to be a shoe-in as Pac-12 South champs, saw an improbable collapse - losing to UCLA, Washington State and California - which opened the door for Utah to...
Runnin' Utes royally bucked by Broncos
Prepare yourselves, Ute fans, because we're probably going to witness the worst basketball season in Utah Utes history. Think I'm overselling that idea? Boise State might've been the easiest opponent left on Utah's schedule and they soundly beat the Utes. That's scary. So hunker down, we're in...
THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS!
WE ARE SO FUCKED WHAT HAPPENS FIRST: THE END OF THE NBA LOCKOUT OR UTAH GETS ITS FIRST PAC-12 WIN?
Do you ever have deja vu, Mrs. Lancaster?
What in the hell was that? How could the Utes play the exact same game two weeks in a row? Am I freaking Bill Murray in Groundhog Day, forced to live the same pathetic and torturous college football Saturday over and over again? Did Utah piss off some turnover god during their epic rout of BYU a...
It's a new season with new expectations
Autumn is a fitting month for a program's struggles. It's the season of melancholy and abrupt change - the death of trees and the celebration of many endings. To Autumn, a poem by John Keats, sums up the autumn feeling so vividly: Where are the songs of Spring? Ay, where are they? Think not of...
Turns out, Utah's a pretty good non-BCS team, but a pretty bad Pac-12 team
Remember when I said Washington fans would have to be out of their cotton-picking mind to pick the Huskies in a romp? Yeah, well, scratch that. I was wrong. I woefully underestimated Washington and embarrassingly overestimated the Utes. Utah might be a fine non-BCS program, but in the Pac-12,...
