Coco and Sully out… hope they protect BB

 

[Hungry Jack]

Look for Cam Johnson to have a big day

 

[phatcat]

"No one in the Portal"? Priebe?

 

[wicker]

0-0, but still early. can't get too down yet

 

[phatcat]

D looks ready.

 

[eddie_gocats]

Utes… meet mr Saka!

 

[1060Ivy]

Nice tough run by Porter

 

[eddie_gocats]

Not a good series…

Bajakian not covering his mouth when calling in plays to the QB.

Run the ball Jake!! Geesh.

 

[phatcat]

Ben can throw downfield if he gets ANY time

 

[eddie_gocats]

Have a feeling the QBs will be sore tomorrow…

 

[Hungry Jack]

Let the Utes keep blitzing

Let the Utes keep blitzing

Can Jake leave at halftime.

 

[CatManTrue]

The stadium itself looks great. Decent crowd. I’m jealous I’m not there.

Pass rush & special teams look great so far… not much else.

Jaheeeeeeem Joseph!

 

[eddie_gocats]

More Tyus please…

 

[IMC Cat]

Utah is blitzing off the edge every play. Bajakian needs to adjust.

 

[phatcat]

More Tyus please…

Please!!

 

[1060Ivy]

Like the screen call - seemed slow developing though

 

[Deeringfish]

Do they still call Spearing. He certainly lowered his head and hit with the top of his helmet.

 

[freewillie07]

Glad Cam appears OK. 100% led with his helmet. Frankly haven’t watched enough CFB to know if they’ll call it.

Apparently it has to be head to head. The one mitigation thing was they were both going down field so the impact was less.

 

[WestCoastWildcat]

Defensive struggle so far. Offense has been disappointing but why not go for it 4th & 1?

 

[CatManTrue]

is Jaheem Joseph of any relation to Brandon? Because he’s playing like an All American.

2 picks so far, one more to go.

 

[eddie_gocats]

That sucked…

 

[phatcat]

I'm sure we will hold them down at the one, like last time

Please leave now Jake.

that's why

 

[mekCat]

We used to be good at QB sneaks. I guess we aren't anymore.

 

[TheC]

Can't wait until Tuesday and they fire that guy!

 

[Deeringfish]

whose puking

 

[Deeringfish]

Cmon 3 and our here

 

[davidwhitt]

Everyone who likes offensive football

 

[freewillie07]

Outplaying them and nothing to show for it. Don’t like that one bit.

 

[Deeringfish]

yes

 

[TheC]

whose puking

Looked like Joseph. My son said it was because he watched what our offense did with his turnover.

Two good Ds and weak Os. I think NU may have more legs given how many left Utah and state at NU
