Rumor Mill: MWC To Expand to 12, Receive Auto Bid
Published on: 12th November, 2009
The latest rumor coming out of Washington DC is that the MWC has invited Boise State, Fresno State, and Nevada to join the nine team MWC. I will reiterate: it's just a rumor. But given the growing number of rumblings, and the pragmatism surrounding this concept, it seems to have ...BCS Quick Fix: How To Add Meaning To The Big 12 Title Game
Published on: 10th November, 2009
I know this proposal seems crazy, because it would never be accepted, no matter how reasonable it sounds or how easy it is to implement. But just consider the practicality of a simple solution that would help make BCS better, more exciting and more legit without compromising school schedules, bowl alliances, ...Utah vs. TCU: Does a Win Mean BCS For Utah?
Published on: 10th November, 2009
Utah-TCU. The biggest non-BCS game of the year for the second year in a row. At stake, the MWC championship, a BCS berth and if TCU wins soundly and the cards fall right, a chance to play for the crystal football. Most of the College Football Nation, especially Boise and Cincinatti area ...Utah Utes-New Mexico Lobos: Stepping Stone For TCU
Published on: 6th November, 2009
Let's get the cliches and coach-speak out of the way first. Utah should keep their eye on the ball, approach one game at a time, respect their opponent, and take care of business tomorrow against up-and-coming New Mexico. Now that that's out of the way, let's discuss what this game really means ...No. 14 Utah’s QB Controversy: Wynn or Cain?
Published on: 3rd November, 2009
Heading into Saturday's game with New Mexico, Utah Coach Kyle Whittingham faces an intriguing dilemma. Two solid QB's, one choice. The dependable tried-and-true Junior or the precocious, strong armed Freshman. The man who can run or the boy who can throw the long ball. The argument for Terrance Cain is simple. With Cain ...Someone Upstairs Looking Out for Iowa
Published on: 1st November, 2009
I like Iowa. I've been in their corner for most of the season thus far. I love defensive teams who win with grit and clutch play, especially on the road. But I have a problem with today's game. A big one. Indiana outplayed the Hawkeyes for most of this game. Somewhere early ...Boise St.: Why Oregon’s Big Win Is a Double-Edged Sword
Published on: 1st November, 2009
I admire the Broncos, one of the nation's most successful and most consistent programs in the BCS era. With one of the nation's top QB's and the only defense to have stopped the explosive Oregon Ducks, the Broncos seem well on their way to their fourth undefeated regular season since 2004. Unfortunately, ...Utah-Oregon: Five Essentials For The Utes
Published on: 17th September, 2009
I love games like this. Two talented teams with a ton on the line. The higher ranked being tested on the road against an explosive team yearning to be make a statement. On national TV. This is a huge game for Utah and really their last big test prior to conference play. A big ...Utah Utes: Half Full Or Half Empty?
Published on: 15th September, 2009
The Utah Utes are an enigma. No one can quite place them. Not yet. Is this a top ten, BCS-worthy team like last year, that wins but wins ugly? Is this deja vu, visions of 2005 when Utah fell from grace to mediocrity? Maybe Utah is somewhere in the middle, like 2006-08 BYU. ...BYU Loves Air Force Too: Why the Cougars are Rooting for Rivals This Week
Published on: 11th September, 2009
The BCS is a crazy animal. It has completely convoluted fan, media and coaching behavior with its intricate web of relationships, perceptions and dependencies. Coaches run up scores to impress pollsters. Refs are accused of altering games to secure at-large BCS berths. Coaches fighting to hide their ballots from the public. But the strangest ...Featured Sponsors
