Huge congrats to them. I was a serious doubter but they did very well.

[Bad Karma]

YES!!!!!!

I think they say "Git 'er' done" in the south? Here in Utah I think it is put something like "Got 'er' did" !

That was one of the sweeting games I've ever seen. Absolute beauty!!!

Proud to be an alum!

Ditto. It is certainly a proud day to be a Ute. Run the flags high, the Utes have the best football program in the state and have the biggest current football tradition in the state of Utah. The tide (pun intended) has turned. Utah's football program has officially passed its basketball program in tradition and dominance. Utah used to be a basketball school and now it is clearly a football school. No question.

This is one of the biggest sports wins in the history of the state of Utah. I think we know who has the hottest ticket in town now. I am glad that I got my season tickets when I did (02), good luck getting them now. Can you all imagine the recruiting that the Utes will get over this win and the last 5+ years of tradition that they have built. Unbelievable!!!

Wow! I literally could not be more surprised. That was amazing. The first quarter was especially fun to watch.

I was a huge doubter as well -- along with the rest of the country. In a nationwide fan poll 90% of voters picked the Tide over the Utes.


What a sweet game! I loved all of the comments from the sportscasters.

"Alabama and it's fans are stunned...and frankly so am I!"

My boss said that the Utes would get steamrolled, and that if they beat Bama that he would wear a Utah sweatshirt around the office on Monday (he's a huge Wyoming fan, and hates the Utes). I've got his sweatshirt ready for him.

The Utes are getting some huge pub this morning. Prime home page real estate on www.espn.com doesn't suck.

[KAH]

That was great to watch. Didn't see that coming. Congrats UTES!!!

[DiscGo]

I'm still excited about that game! That was so cool!

[Wasatch Rebel]

I thought the Utes would at least give a good showing. They did much more than that!! Yes!

[Iceaxe]

great day to be a UTE!

I was buying textbooks at the U bookstore today. It was full of Ute fans buying their official Sugar Bowl Champs gear.

The fans should be buying National Champs gear. Stupid BCS.

I'm curious to see how many 1st place votes the Utes get in the final AP poll.... there will be a couple for sure...

If the writers really want a playoff, they will vote Utah #1.... Though that is not going to happen, I assume the will get a share of votes.....

In the end, I am just REALLY happy about how things worked out. They are the Auburn of 2004.....

[CarpeyBiggs]

So which team is better? 2004 or 2008?

I'm going to say 2008, simply because of their resume. This is, without a doubt, the most impressive non-BCS resume every completed. If it was still 1984, we know who would be national champs.

And that hurts, coming from a Y fan.

So which team is better? 2004 or 2008?

I'm going with the 2004 team.... they crushed everyone. They beat everyone by 14 points or more..... they are the only team in the history of college football to go undefeated and do that.

In 2004 games were over at halftime....
