Sports Illustrated predicts Utah & Oregon in the Pac-12 title game
Sports Illustrated has Utah and SC tying for the Pac-12 South in their conference preview. However, with the Trojans under NCAA sanctions, in this scenario, it would be the Utes playing in the first Pac-12 title game against the Oregon Ducks, who they peg as the North champions. They expect the...
Previewing Utah's path to the Pac-12 title game
I'm going to start this post out by saying that I do not think Utah will represent the Pac-12 South in the inaugural conference title game. I don't think that's too dramatic of a position and I'm sure many of you will actually agree with me. I'll explain my doubt in this post outlining, ironically,...
The consensus on Utah football heading into the Pac-12? No consensus
Utah might be the hardest team to peg heading into the 2011 season. I don't know if anyone is sure what to expect out of them and that's evident in how varied their rankings are as they ready to start Pac-12 play. They've been picked anywhere from 1st to 5th in the South - quite the difference of...

Where's Waldo and Where We are Now: Current and Projected Standings
Who is this total stranger posting on Al's blog? Well a long, long time ago I was one of the original "statheads" at BCB. After posting for a while at a couple other blogs, I wrote some pieces for last year's Maple Street Press Cubs Annual. (Still available online!) After that, Al asked me to come...
The Johnny Cueto Contract
The Reds reportedly have agreed to a four year, $27 million contract with 24-year old RHP Johnny Cueto. This would be the third major extension the club has offered a young player, and the fourth multi-year extension of the offseason. Cueto was signed as an international free agent in 2004, and...

So, halfway through the 2010 - how you feelin'?
I've got to admit, it's hard to believe we're already halfway through the 2010 season. Kind of sad. Not gonna lie. But now the real season begins. This is what we expected, right? Back in August, I asked what Utah's record would be through six games and 59% of you said 6-0 (81% if you ignore the...
The importance of home games
I think we all believe 2009 was a fairly okay rebuilding campaign by the Utes. They won ten games, finished ranked and won their ninth consecutive bowl game against an elite Pac-10 team. By all accounts, it wasn't a bad season. Of course, it could have been a lot better. The biggest complaint about...
Six games in and Utah's record will be...
Let's fast forward to the halfway point of the 2010 season. The Utes are coming off a game in Laramie against Wyoming. They're staring down the final stretch run of the 2010 season. Are they contending for a conference championship? Are they ranked? Are they undefeated? The schedule up until that...
