The line for tonight's game is Utah by 24.
I particularly liked this comment by Taylor Pratt:

On paper, Huntley looked slightly improved. On the field, he looked like the same old Huntley.
That interception he threw was to a Weber player standing all alone without a Ute player anywhere for miles around. A baffling interception. Had everyone questioning if he's color blind. He narrowly missed throwing two additional interceptions. And this is against Weber State's secondary. Geez what happens when they play someone who's really good...like Washington in two weeks?
All the hype claimed Huntley was vastly improved in every aspect, but I'm afraid that's all it is...just hype.Last edited by rockgremlin; 08-31-2018 at 10:27 AM.

Check out this screenshot of statistics from last night's game on ESPN.
Didn't Gay miss a field goal? Why does it say he was 100% on his field goals?

Huntley was hit as he was throwing on the INT, how much that effected the pass I don't know.
Some good and some bad from that game. We'll see if they cleaned up the problems next week. It's sometimes hard to judge against such a weak opponent.
On a positive note that D has speed!!! Utah has never had that type of speed on D before.

Lots to clean up for sure. Fun to see Covey back. A few guys broke their ankles trying to catch him when he changed direction.
587 yards total offense for Utah
59 for Weber High

Hard to take much from the game, considering the opponent. D looked good, but the matchup on the line was just unfair. I am pretty sure I was as big as those Weber State players. Huntley looked a little rusty, but it was also a pretty vanilla game plan. Next game should look about the same I'd guess, with the real season starting in 2 weeks. Washington didn't exactly look like world beaters yesterday against Auburn, but they will probably clean up a lot in the next 2 weeks. Should be a pretty good season, I would bet we are in the 8-9 win range.

FWIW - between week 1 and 2 is when teams typically make the biggest improvement of the year.

Watching the BYU game has me thinking it will be our defense vs their offense and I like our chances. However it’s week 1 and that’s the last game of the season.

Utah fans need to lose the Pac-12 stickers on their vehicles and stop wearing gear with it. I get it for the first couple years, but now it’s just an embarrassment. No other team in the conference has fans that put Pac-12 logos everywhere. Makes Utah fans look like a bunch of clowns.
Kinda like Jazz fans putting Western Conference stickers on their cars or Raiders fans sporting AFC West or NFL stickers on their car. C’mon man.

Fans pay the money and can do whatever makes them happy in my humble opinion. I hear the same type argument about grown men running around in a teams football jersey. Why are grown men wearing a jersey when they don't play on the team? It's no skin off your ass if fans put a sticker on their car or wear a jersey, so why let it bother you?

Maybe you should wear a Britain Covey jersey to the game so they know the difference?!?
Just for the record... When you bought you ticket, how much you paid, or what team you cheer for doesn't make you a better or worse fan. Fans come in all shapes, colors and sizes and they all love their team just as much as you love yours.
If you really want something to worry about it should probably be the decline in the fan base of football as a whole. If things don't change in another 30 years it will no longer matter.

Highly recruited freshman QB Tuttle gets bumped into the #3 spot after Shelley's impressive showing in the 4th quarter. I was quite impressed with Shelley's performance -- he came out and dropped a 40 yard bomb, and also had a 40 yard run. Granted, it was against a gassed Weber State in garbage time, but still I liked what I saw.
I wonder if Tuttle will get impatient and bail on Utah after riding the bench for probably most if not all of his freshman season?It's only "science" if it supports the narrative.

I think Tuttle planned to ride the bench for 2 years (and play for 2 or 3 depending on red shirt) when he signed up as Huntley is only a JR. Or perhaps he planned to enter the game when the inevitable happens and Huntley gets hurt, But having Shelley in the mix is a whole new can of worms for Tuttle as Shelley is a red shirt freshmen. If Shelley is THE GUY that leaves Tuttle 5 years to play 1, not what a top recruit wants to see.
Back in the day the idea was you would enter a program and be a backup for 2 years and then be the guy for 2 years, but that train of though has disappeared in the last few years.
Anyhoo... it will be interesting to see how it all plays out. But it's nice to have a stable full of talent at QB for a change, at least for the time being.

Predictions for tomorrow's game:
Moss and Covey will go off for close to 300 yards of offense in a lopsided road win.
Utes 45
NIL Huskies 17
Although the Utes are a heavy favorite (an 11 point favorite in Vegas), someone over at Athlon sports had the audacity to boldly defy the odds.
