Utah 27 Michigan 24 A field goal will be the difference.

Should be a great game on Saturday; I can hardly wait. Let's hope the Utes bring their best game and silence all the critics. A win over Michigan would be fantastic.

GO UTES!!!!!

If the Utes score more than 17 points they will win. It won't be a cake walk with the U of M Defence. That will be all they need though because U of M's offence is a mess.

I am very glad Casteel is back. His presence on the field will help to open up better play calling, at least it should. This will be Ludwig's year to shine. If he can't succeed with all of these weapons, he doesn't deserve to be an OC.

The players all seem great, and they've looked pretty good in games in the past... it's Ludwig that scares me.

Casteel had better hurry and win that Heisman he guaranteed! I know of several Ute fans who think this is the year. Of course, he'll have to improve his hands, balance, coordination, speed, route running, and intangibles to get it done, but that's nothing for the man of casteel. I'll bet he has at LEAST 1 catch on Saturday. Granted, it might be a swing pass that loses 5 yards, but he'll have a catch! Can't wait to hear him pop his mouth off this year - its always funny the hear what comes out when he talks. Prediction for Saturday: Michigan comes out slow, but gradually wears down the outmanned and outgunned Utes, scoring 21 points with 250 yards of rushing...in the 1st quarter. Not to worry, though, King Louie will kick a few field goals at some point. Final score: Michigan 49, utes 6. Enjoy your time in the spotlight, utes! Hope you look good on your backside for National (or Regional) TV! P.S. think you can score against UNLV this year? Just give the ball to Casteel on every play - he'll win the heisman based on that game alone!

I wouldn't underestimate Michigans offense. Utah ran the spread well, even early in the season, in '03. They had athletes recruited to run a two-tight end,single back offense. Coach Rodriguez is doing it with Michigan athletes.

Why can't the tardo BYU fans stay out of Utah boards? Must be jealous because their cougs aren't getting enough press for their opener against "powerhouse" UNI. I guess 3 daily articles in the Desnews isn't enough.

"Can't wait to hear him pop his mouth off this year - its [sic] always funny the [sic] hear what comes out when he talks."

It's actually kind of funny reading how you well you WRITE. Will you also be excited to hear what falls from the lips of Austin Collie. I know I'll be on the edge of MY seat. I've been living right off the field.

I am excited to have Casteel back we missed someone who could break the big play last year.

That is sure a lot of spewing for someone who makes fun of those who make predictions. Unfortunately, I am reminded of "the mouth of the south" Curtis Brown and his many failed predictions. Maybe you are Curtis Brown. With a prediction like that, you must be! How is life in the NFL? Oh sorry, didn't mean to bring that up.

Does anyone know who BYU plays this weekend? What channel is it going to be on? I can't wait to get some Hogi Yogi and watch it. Finally something to watch besides Napoleon Dynamite. YEA!!!!
