Really good addition to an already good defense

I just heard about Hatfield about an hour ago and maybe I was just in the dark but I assumed even once he was back he would sit out the season because of how much time he missed (spring and fall camp) and what not and that next year he could play the whole season and hopefully come out like a man on fire with something to prove to the the team and the NFL.
As far as this season no doubt he could help once the PAC12 season starts due to the offensive sets requiring defenses to run a variety of nickle defensive packages or dime in some cases.
I'd be surprised if he actually gets time in the USU game just because of conditioning, I mean it would be awesome if the U can jump up big early and so he can get a little playing time but even then they may figure it's not worth the risk of injury (due to conditioning) I figure even next game against Fresno is a long shot.

I heard them talking about the utes being ranked on the radio but it was just a teaser and they didn't say what number (I got home and turned the radio off so I never got to hear)
What is their ranking?

Dang straight. Has Utah ever been ranked after one win when they weren't ranked the week before?

No bias. They deserve to be ranked and you could argue they should have been ranked the week prior. They finished last season ranked and returned almost everybody. If anything I'd say they were underrated to begin the season.

I agree that they deserve to be ranked. They are good

Lots of nervous Ute fans after 2 ugly-ish wins but I'll take it. We're very lucky Travis is only missing a game. I haven't been super impressed with Oregon in the first 2 weeks. They seem less physical than they normally are (which isn't much to begin with) and Vernon Adams has been "meh". Michigan State just gave Utah the blueprint on how a physical team can beat them without getting into a shoot-out.
Ugly or not, Utah can leave Oregon at 4-and-0 in two weeks if they tighten up a few things on both sides of the ball.
