It amazes me in just a decade that Utah has been able to drive home a narrative

ColumbusCoug Walk-on

that the rivalry game doesn’t mean as much to them anymore. Wilson even mentions it. Here’s to hoping the next decade of less dominance by Utah.

Zach Wilson saying it like it is

Talk is cheap.

Cool. So if they don't talk then we all get upset that they aren't amped up

Not cheap when you're the leader and getting everyone to buy in

Especially when you’re the OC who eased up on the throttle demonstrably...

icecougar

When your QB throws a bad pick 6, makes sense the OC is tempted to ease up

SlantRoute

Except ZW went down and scored again after the pick 6 a couple possessions

It was a bunch of things...

RB depth was a huge factor there.

Losing I. Kaufusi at OLB was also a big factor.

DadBod

I don't think the edge was set once after I Kaufusi went out.

ReggaeCoug

Agree. Losing Hadley stalled the offense, losing Kaufusi allowed the comeback

DadBod

6/24/19 1:03pm

I tend to believe if one or the other hadn't been injured, it changes the outcom

Eddie

6/24/19 2:17pm

Yep. We went toe to toe and dominated for 3 quarters.

DadBod

6/24/19 4:04pm

That and the injuries, especially Kaufusi.

I’m guessing Grimes has learned that lesson

Especially after a decade of losing. It’s worth nothing.

Signed Jim McMahon. Zach reminds me of Jim. If you were old enough. You would

Zach is great. I was giddy like a schoolgirl watching him last year. If

Right on man. This is right on and so true. Hcbw and I both notice it.

Loved Max Hall coming out onto the field to start the 2nd half shouting to the..

It was actually when he was running off the field into the locker room

"Just a decade." That's an eternity in CFB

Not according to Jake Murphy...

Utah coaches and players have never downplayed the rivalry game

SlantRoute

6/23/19 2:52pm

Utah has tried to not play BYU at all.

allwhitejerseys

6/23/19 3:33pm

Is that the players and coaches? No. That’s Chris Hill.

SlantRoute

6/23/19 3:37pm

Not only. Many fans feel that way too. And Coach K too.

Man, well said. Freaking awesome post, Ice.

FYI. Whit has BYU media quotes playing on a loop in the Ute weight lifting room.

Oh no, Utah has the motivational edge!

I think the “soft in the middle” comment was directed at KW’s waistline.

mncougar

6/23/19 8:36pm

Whitt likes to take it up the middle.

Well Utah breaks every huddle with **** BYU!

Love the confidence.

The downside

Up to the LT to protect his blind side

Heinz57

Sacks happen - 23 times last year

CallingDingo

6/23/19 9:29pm

Sacks do happen, but I don't see 23 sacks this year

Heinz57

6/23/19 9:32pm

Once it’s healed it can be as good as new.

Less chance of it re-occurring than the initial injury
