Colorado St. showed me enough speed and a good enough passing attack to fully expect a W against BYU next week.

Can the rest of Utah's schedule just quit until TCU? That's basically the only game that matters anyway. Both TCU and Utah should be given a free pass. Let the crappy teams keep playing each other. Maybe eventually they'll throw a touchdown pass or something. No need to waste time watching TCU and Utah hammer the jokes of this conference who couldn't beat half of the HS Football schools in Utah by 60 points.

I agree that Utah probably won't cover.

I feel so unfaithful.

I actually left the game early. I got tired of sitting in the wet and cold watching CSU watch Utah. I want Air Force to put up a fight. I still feel like I don't exactly where the Utes stand. Are they as good as they look, or are they just getting the worst teams' worst games? They are definitely top 25, IMO, but it's hard to get a read when nobody tests them.

I really think that Utah is a top team. Top 5? Maybe. Top 10? Definitely. This year's team is better than 2008. They're deeper at every spot and they don't take games off. The Pitt game was close, but it was Utah shooting themselves in the foot that made it close. Since then, they've done everything they can do. Sure, the competition was weak, but they went to Iowa State and demolished them. Iowa State went to (admittedly down) Texas and won. The only team that I think would handle the Utes is Oregon. I really think Oregon is the best team in the nation, hands down, but anyone else, the Utes could play with. I expect them to go into Colorado Springs, take care of business and leave with a 20+ point win. If all goes well, the 6th of November could see two top five teams squaring off in Rice Eccles.
 
I'm pretty much on board with what YB is saying, somethings that scare me/I have questions on his turnovers overall on the season the D hadn't been forcing many but they hopefully started righting that ship against CSU but still the offense and special teams have too many. Also again against CSU it looked better but the RB's are solid but hadn't been able to break for big plays and again hopefully after CSU it is starting to trend upwards.
Defense the only thing that concerns me is the LB's now they've been good all season but I still worry about them against the better teams.
