I'm ashamed at the TERRIBLY BIAS media in Salt Lake City when it comes to Utah sports. BYU wins by one point to a winless Washington team and is praised. Utah beats a VERY GOOD 2-3 Oregon State team by 3, and they are punished with such negative reporting by the Deseret News.
I understand the Church owns this paper, but come on. Show respect where respect is due.
Oregon State was a preseason top 20 team that was picked to finish 3rd in the PAC 10 (ahead of Oregon). As we all saw a week ago, they can play with anyone in the nation. They are a very sound team.
Utah didn't bring it's "A" game but they found a way to win which is a sign of a good football team.
You and your paper give BYU far too much credit with wins over absolutely nobody. WSU and UCLA are this years doormats in the PAC 10. Obviously, they are both great programs and when scheduled, were expected to be strong opponents. They weren't.
My point is this, Utah may be up and down offensively so far this year but they are 6-0 against a better schedule than what the Y has played so back off and give them some credit.
Be positive about both schools, this is the season we have all been waiting for. Hopefully both schools in the top 10 and undefeated when they meet.
Go U! Go Y!
Great win. Great team. See you in November!
GO BYU vs. Aggies tonight!
A GAME WINNING FG!!!
If you didn't storm the field, then you weren't watching the game. Utah was outplayed in most aspects of this game, but when the chips were down and the pressure up, the Utes found a way to stop the competition, capitalize on a couple small mistakes, and bring home the W, the prize that really matters.
Way to go Utes!!!
I am glad, though. Need to keep winning so it is an undefeated Utah team to meet an undefeated BYU team in November.
If Utah can find some consistency, they will be a solid team.
"You and your paper give BYU far too much credit with wins over absolutely nobody. WSU and UCLA are this years doormats in the PAC 10."
You would be correct, but BYU did play WSU, truly the doormat of the PAC 10. They played U of W, not quite the doormat, more of a shoe scraper. You know those things that look like a brush that you see at some homes and businesses.
What you forget is that BYU destroyed UCLA. They so thoroughly dominate them that it wasn't funny. Then they let the 2nd string get some playing time.
GREAT WIN UTAH!! Chalk up another one for the MWC!
In short, I am thrilled to see the UTES at 6-0, but at some point something has to give. Hopefully it is their mistakes that give and not loss.
GO UTES!!!!
If that is pass interference, then I am going to make so much money on becoming the next great offensive guru. I will find a bad passing QB and teach my wide outs to run hard down and outs, then have my bad QB always throw behind my wide outs, who will then stop and change direction toward the terrible pass, running directly into the d-back. Thus, drawing a flag every time. Fifteen yards at a time all the way to the goal line. Cha-ching, cha-ching all the way to the bank.
TERRIBLE CALL!!!!!
Quit ripping on the article just because it was published on the DN.
Who's doing the whining???????
Thanks Utah for a miricle win last night. You were the lesser opponent but found a way to prevail!
Go Aggies on Friday night.
you can't have it both ways....
But I give the credit, that Rock didn't, to the Utes for keeping their heads in the game. Good luck tonight, cougs. And Rock, "relax and enjoy" your cougs' season while it lasts. You've got 8 more wins to go before you can even think about being arrogant... wait, too late.
