Now that fall camp has ended and we're closing in on the season, there won't be any more practice reports. Of course, that doesn't mean there won't be any Ute news to report and that's what I want to establish here. So this is basically a carryover from that.
This marks the final week of any type of preseason speculation, so get it out of the way. I think we've all got to emotionally ready ourselves for that first loss and the end of Utah's long winning streak. Not that I hope it happens, but you know it's coming and how many of you are actually ready for it?
I know I'm not.
In fact, I remember 2005 when the Utes lost to TCU and how hard it was to take that loss. You know, Utah entered that game last losing to the Lobos in 2003 - a stretch longer than their current one - and the losing feeling was so foreign to me. Well Utah hasn't lost since the '07 Holy War and again, I find myself wondering what losing feels like.
I hope we don't find out and if we do, I really hope we only find out once.
Anyway, that's my little rant for the day.
