Why is the media so high on Utah?

Please show a year in which Utah WASN’T overly hyped. It’s the same shit every year. Hyped D and running game but just need to iron out the kinks in the passing game. They come out 4-0 and crack the top 10, only to go 4-4 the rest of the way.

That's exactly right. It's Karl Malone winning MVP over MJ.RoadDawg55 said:
I don’t have a problem with Utah being the favorite in the South, but to say they are better than UW is wrong. We’re a more talented team with the proven best coach in the conference, and we beat them every year. The media decided it was Utah’s year for some reason.dtd said:Same reason they're high on Justin Herbert. They don't do any research and once that ball starts bouncing around the echo chamber, it gets moving real fast.
There's basically zero reason to not favor UW every single year until they prove otherwise. The best coaching staff, by a million fucking miles, with the at worst 2nd best talent. Fucking duh? I hate it but pretending I don't have cancer isn't gonna make it stop metastasizing.
Also if I stop posting fora few monthsever it's not cause I'm banned. Or it's also because I'm banned. -
We can agree that TBS alone doesn’t predict PAC titles (eg USC and UCLA of late). But no school has won the Pac with Utah level talent in a long ass time. Cuog in 2002 was the last and the would have gotten skull fucked by USC in a PAC 12 championship revenge game. Utah doesn’t hasnt had the horses no matter how well Wittingham develops players.

Is USC running some version of the air raid that doesn't require a QB? They're going to be dismal.PurpleJ said:Whittingham does more with less. No one wants to pick the defending champ to win again, because they are edge lords like @puppylove_sugarsteel who care more about going out on a limb than actually being right.
ASU or USC in the loaded south. I’m favoring the bitchfork, but Helton won before and USC probably has some decent talent. -
The most concerning game for me is Arizona in Tucson. Even though the Arizona program is a tire fire, it will be UW’s second road game in two weeks. It’s always hard to win in the desert and a healthy Tate is probably the most dangerous quarterback we? face.
Back-to-back road games in conference should never happen. Fire Larry Scott.
Oregon at home the next week is also concerning. Utah at home coming off a bye doesn’t worry me. -

Uhhh good luck constructing a conference schedule without back to back road games.HonestDon said:The most concerning game for me is Arizona in Tucson.

That made me chuckle. But if I’m any other team but UW, I’m worried about the latest Leach air raid. Probably good for another 9 or 10 wins which is an insane level of sustained success for the coug.YouKnowIt said:

You’re right you snarky SOB. The event I was thinking of that should never happen is back to back conference road games where the second game is played on a Friday. I think the conference did avoid scheduling that situation.FremontTroll said:

Looks like at least Utah, Oregon, and the coug don’t play back to back conference road games this year.

This statement is always puzzling.haie said:
I doubt they even watched Huntley last year as he got owned by fucking Browning.DoogieMcDoogerson said:Solid RB, Shitty QB. Seems like we should have no problem shutting their offense down. We've beat them 4 straight.
QB-X really owned QB-Y.
Huh?
Was it a one v one competition? A duel?
