Utes' 2010 schedule finalized
Yay! The 2010 schedule has been released. Now we get to comb over it and dream about it for the next few months. God bless spring and summer! Utah kicks off the season, as expected against Pitt on Thursday, Sept. 2nd at 6:30 MST. The game will air on Versus - which you may or may not get. Then,...
Expectations for 2011
Basketball season has pretty much ended for Utah and I'm sure a good number of you are interested in moving on to football. I don't disagree. With spring heating up, it seems pointless to fixate on the basketball troubles of the past. And that's exactly what they are - issues in the past. What's...
Don't Let Raised Expectations Ruin the Season
If I were to have asked you in November what would need to occur to qualify a successful season, what would you have said? Honestly, go ahead. I'll wait. (Jeopardy music) I couldn't tell you. Because way back in November, or even earlier, you're willing to settle. You're willing to acknowledge...
Bruce Pearl wonders whether he's in the wrong place?
I'm probably late on this, but yesterday was a wicked day that prevented me from hearing anything on my time-shifting iPod until this morning. The thing that struck me most was a comment from Mike Griffith relaying that he'd heard Bruce Pearl say something to the effect that if winning the SEC East...
Excitement In the Air
Being the fabulous site moderator that I am, I finally got around to reading KCsince88's fanpost he wrote way back on Tuesday. Sorry. However, it was one of the best things that has ever been written on this site, and got me thinking. And as I thought about it, I realized that I was in the same,...
Think of the alternative
I have written time and again at just how special Pete Carroll is. His positive attitude has been documented both on and off the field. Carroll's competitiveness is legendary as ESPN's Ted Miller relates. In 2001, Neuheisel, as Washington's coach, beat USC and Carroll on a late field goal,...
Dose Of Reality: Projecting Expectations For 2008-09 Football Season
It is that time of the year again. Menelaus’ post re Phil Steele's preview spurred a pretty good discussion wrt to expectations for next season. This is a discussion we have had every year here on BN around this time during the off season (See 2007 and 2006). And every time the discussions...
Is it more of the same?
It depends on whom you ask. Scott Wolf has an article today in the Daily News stating just that. The quick answer would be yes if you look at the teams record so far this season. But if you look a little more carefully some questions do jump out at you. As SMQ stated in his preview of USC in...
Forde Continues where Dufresne Left Off
I don't always agree with him but Pat Forde of ESPN also chimes in on letting the Domers know that this ain't the year. In his column today his calm approach simply tells them "NO". He backs up his argument with fact: The Dash looked it up: since the AP poll cranked up in 1936, no national...
Dufresne Calls Out Notre Dame
LA Times columnist Chris Dufresne calls out Notre Dame in his Monday column. I mentioned earlier in the year that ND was going to get the same special treatment that SC got last year. There was all the talk that ND was going to win the BsCS title. Yes, I typed BsCS on purpose. There is no doubt...
