Myles Gaskin hid so many of this team's flaws

    BBK did the best job of hiding the flaws of this team. The fact that he got 250 tackles last year whereas all the other ILBs got 5 should've sounded alarm bells.

    I actually don't quite look at it as "myles hid flaws" or "John Ross hid flaws" or even "Dante hid flaws" but rather look at how easily you can let a few playmakers be playmakers and it flips so many games. The obsession with playing Opera Singer and giving Manu a make-a-wish season are the 2 glaring ones but then you factor in the coaches thinking their version of the chart is more important than getting the ball to Otton and deciding to put critical conversions in the hands of guys who haven't touched the ball enough (Pleasant, etc)...it's actually nothing more than coaching decisions.

    I blame Jommy Lake. He failed to develop a safety so he stole our best linebacker for the spot to divert blame from himself.

    The PAC 12 is so 'utterly pitiful and soft.' Yet somehow it has two top 9 teams after week 9.

    That speaks more to the conference of Champions having one team in ASU having 3 losses and the REST (75% of the Pac-12) each having at least 4.

    You're obviously not objective when it comes to Oregon. So I will pose this question: How well would you expect Utah to fare against Alabama? LSU? Auburn? Florida? Ohio State?

    If you can't see how this conference is full of dreck, Chris Fetters can't help you.
    Utah could hang tough with Auburn and Florida, maybe knock off a tOSU team that is due for a headscratching loss, like last year's loss to Purdue. Oregon has a higher ceiling than Utah.

    Utah would get ass blasted by those teams. You're high

    The league is still bad but improving. Seems like a lot of teams are trending in the right direction.

    If Utah can't stay competitive in games vs Auburn or Florida, they have no business being in the top 10.

    Gaskin the person is amazing and he was a really good RB, but we don’t actually miss him that much.
