Official UofU homer thread

Moving Jackson to offense full time is interesting. I don't think it's a great idea for USC vs us. We are too good with our front 4 and bump and run coverage.

I don't think that Kessler will have enough time in the pocket to really use those two at WR.

So, you move Jackson to an area you can't fully utilize him which then weakens your CB's.

Wilson was a surgeon vs ASU. It was beautiful. If he plays like that the rest of the year, there is nobody that can hang with us.

USC is too young and we are too experienced. This game is nothing to us. We've played and won everywhere. The Colliseum filled with moms and their nannies and kids is nothing.

We will hit them hard, they will fold and we will win.

I honestly think this move weakens USC vs us due to matchups. Our DL and CB's are too good. Our QB's are too good.
 
Yep. I love it.

If we win this game Chris Hill needs to give KW a raise and announce that Utah will match his salary to the highest paid HC in the PAC 12.

Utah needs to put KW to USC speculation to bed in order to maximize recruiting success and send a message that Utah is an elite program who's coaches can't be usurped. If we win this game the KW speculation will only intensify.

No need to do it now. It would be more dramatic and celebratory in the offseason. Or before the playoffs right after the PAC-12 title game. Have a Kyle Whittingham day, let him sign the deal, big celebration, mention statues, etc.
 
The biggest surprise to me this year has been the secondary. You can always count on Utah to have a good front 7, but this secondary has been a revelation. Hatfields return just made an already great unit even better. When you are at the game you really notice, those deep routes with one on one coverage, our guys are all over them. Tevin Carter is an absolute stud. I bet a bunch of these guys are playing on Sunday.

I really hope they show up on Sarurday. If we can get past the Trojans then I may finally start believing that this season could be something really special. You don't beat Cal ASU and USC back to back to back unless you are a really good team.

The way I see it, a win on Saturday and we can still afford one slip up on our way to Stanford. That'd have me pretty confident.

But teams like USC aren't prone to losing 3 in a row. Come out fast and hit em hard. Make them not even want to play the game, if they get comfortable it could get ugly.

Go Utes!!

I agree about the secondary. Very very good and important part of the utes team. Under-rated too imo.
 
Shah has been one of, if not our best position coach, which is awesome considering all the crap he has gotten. All he does is take players that have never played CB and turn them into NFL guys. It's remarkable.

When I did my 11-1 prediction before the season started, it was thinking that Domo would be our starting CB. He is special. He shuts down NFL caliber receivers. He is special. The best CB since Weddle. He changes our defense. He allows Williams and Carter to roam free and make plays. Love the kid. Feel bad for him. Yeah, he made a mistake, but you can't tell me if he was a white kid that he wouldn't have gone through a completely different reality. He was screwed over big time.

Glad to see him fight through it. He has a chance to do something special with his life. Let's hope he takes it.
 
Man, I wish this game was tonight. This game has me worried. We should win. Those are the games we struggle in.

I think if we are physical the game is ours.

Stinking Cal. We could have put the south away last night if Cal had won. Can't believe how good Rosen looked last night.
