USU at Utah 2013

Utah's offense already looks light years ahead of what is has been over the past few seasons.

But that defense???

They couldn't defend Travis Van Luven. Marquis Lee and the rest of the PAC is gonna have some fun. Utah better concentrate on its offense and hope to out score opponents in some shoot outs.

On the bright side, there's no way Utah loses to USC this year. That team looks like they've already quit on Kiffin.

The problem defending Utah state begins and ends with Chucky. That guy made plays that kept Utah state's offense on the field. In the last quarter and a half USU had 4 first downs and one of those was the last drive where Utah was just defending against the TD and gave it to them.

Okay, if you say so. It should have been apparent to everybody watching that game though. Without Chucky I'm not sure that team scores 10 points last night.

What? You guys pretty much got killed in the trenches for 75% of the game and your linebackers still can't cover anybody. Your kicker is probably better than advertised though....because nobody has ever heard of him.

I like what I saw. Orchad and Reily are going to be playing on Sundays and while the LB's got picked apart in coverage for much of the game, I think Keeton had a lot to do with that and I see young players who I think will continue to improve. That Aggie O-line is talented and has played a lot of games together. I could make the argument that Utah State will be the toughest QB/O-line combo that Utah will face all season.

My two biggest concerns coming out of that game are Utah's CB's and WR depth now that Kenneth Scott is lost for the season. I'm very interested to see how Utah's D plays against BYU in a few weeks. The Cougars have better RB's and WR's than USU, but it sounds like the O-line could be downright horrid and Taysom Hill certainly is no Chuckie Keeton. Hill could probably kill Utah all day long on deep throws to Hoffman but Im not convinced he'll have enough time to do so.

Fitzgerald didn't look too bad filling in for Scott. But yeah, competition should be noted. I was pretty impressed with Utah State. I think I had them at 8-4 or 7-5 or something in that prediction thread. But I'd say they are good for 9 now after seeing them even with that first game loss if Chucky can stay healthy.

Agree with you on Utah State.

On a side note, how great is it right now for everybody in the state of Utah who loves football?

Utah State is better than they've ever been, BYU is playing the best schedule in school history, and Utah is playing possibly the toughest schedule in the history of the state. I've always felt BYU needed to go Independent after Utah left but I didn't think they'd be able to schedule so well this quickly. Props to Holmoe and Co.


Nearly every weekend is going to see some great games against great opponents for each fan base.
 
Wish I could watch the replay of the game. Thought Fox 1 would replay it today.

PS: I got kicked out of the stadium in the 1st qtr for having booze and had to sneak back in. Missed Murphy's TD in the process. Kinda pissed.
