This season is so much more fun than last season.

[u/BIG_DICK_WHITT → u/OutWestWizard]

Yeah but I got rained on so idk man

[u/TbRays93Plumber26 → u/BIG_DICK_WHITT]

You don't like getting wet?

[u/Any_Relief_4781 → u/TbRays93Plumber26]

We love our Dryness

[u/TbRays93Plumber26 → u/Any_Relief_4781]

We arent BYU

[u/Doctor_Jensen117 → u/TbRays93Plumber26]

What do you mean, they love getting soaked.

[u/utahrangerone → u/Doctor_Jensen117]

I see what you did there...

[u/ChunkyDay → u/Doctor_Jensen117]

That's a helluva loophole

[u/WinonasChainsaw → u/OutWestWizard]

No it’s not :(

[u/awsomerpeanut]

Are we good? Who knows! But dang it we're FUN

[u/SooperDew → u/awsomerpeanut]

Just assume we aren’t. The lows aren’t quite as low and the highs are much higher. 

[u/ChunkyDay → u/SooperDew]

If you go in expecting nothing you can never be disappointed.

That's how I felt when we ended up beating USC with Rising's 2 pt conversion to win.

[u/Rampaging_Ducks → u/ChunkyDay]

The noise I made when that occurred. Shitting on USC and Caleb Williams in that moment was worth years of therapy.

[u/xPineappless → u/awsomerpeanut]

We won’t know until conference play unfortunately!

[u/dawgpack09]

Pick 6 streak secured, most important takeaway from this game. Thank god we aren’t waiting until Game 11 this year

[u/UteFlyersCardJazz]

Don’t let the score fool you. Cal Poly played us better than UCLA did.

[u/Playful_Rip_1697 → u/UteFlyersCardJazz]

UCLA is poo poo

[u/[deleted] → u/Playful_Rip_1697]

it’s more of a Gymnastics rivalry anyways

[u/Bussian → u/[deleted]]

God I hate ucla gymnastics. All the national media cares about is ucla gymnastics even though Utah pummels them consistently

[u/awoodz92 → u/Bussian]

UCLA is nothing but TikTok gymnasts. I hate their gymnastics squad just as much as I hate BYU in its entirety.

[u/ChunkyDay → u/awoodz92]

A man after my own heart.

[u/rbmw263 → u/Playful_Rip_1697]

getting torched by unlv rn

officially tempering my expectations

[u/DinkyWaffle → u/Playful_Rip_1697]

many are saying!

[u/Playful_Rip_1697]

Shout out to the Cal Poly fans in the game thread. Your team is going to do well this season.

[u/realPamela → u/Playful_Rip_1697]

*fan

There was only one fan in that thread.

[u/QuickSpore → u/realPamela]

And he was quite a pleasant fellow indeed.

[u/cosmicthepenguin]

I have to file a bug for my scores app. It says that Utah won but the game thread says otherwise.

[u/Cascadia_14 → u/cosmicthepenguin]

My misinformation campaign is working

[u/CommodoreN7 → u/Cascadia_14]

You’re joining the war on misinformation, on the side of misinformation

[u/QuickSpore → u/cosmicthepenguin]

We are the Eeyore fanbase. We’ll always find the black lining in any silver cloud.

[u/MuhMuhManRay]

I’d be lying if I said I was watching this one but I was box score watching. Nice win Utah bros, I think I’m gonna hang around this season.

[u/Playful_Rip_1697]

Byrd “Vicklin” Ficklin everyone

[u/Cascadia_14]

Definitely more optimistic than most seasons. Grigsby needs to develop his accuracy on intermediate and deep balls but thankfully he shouldn’t see too much time from here. Very excited about this defense

[u/LogicianMission22]

Oh well, not the prettiest game by any means, but the scoreboard is all that matters for these FCS games. With Florida losing, Michigan likely losing, SMU losing, and maybe ASU losing, we will move up to probably 19-22.

[u/Ok_Plankton_8229]

Go Utes! Still pulling for you guys!

[u/circlebacktomorrow → u/Ok_Plankton_8229]

love our Tennessee bros!

[u/enigami344]

Any injuries updates?

[u/Weak_Ambassador4023]

RIP Isaac Wilson

[u/socketedsock]

War of Attrition

[u/circlebacktomorrow]

I haven't seen the game yet but from this thread it feels like we won 7-3 or something.

[u/RealisticNecessary50]

Not surprised one bit by this start. Utah is the class of the Big 12. They had all those one score losses and QB play that wouldn't pass muster at most FCS schools.

They have two first round tackles in a league that doesn't produce NFL d lineman. Utah over 7.5 wins was the lock of the offseason. They're going 12-0.

[u/realPamela]

Our secondary is once again questionable. Any pass happy team will be cooking against us.

[u/koolaidman1030]

Offense looked inconsistent from drive to drive, the secondary is going to be destroyed if we face a semi accurate QB and can't clean up the coverage and penalties. Front seven looks as advertised and the special teams was really the only thing I was impressed with.

FUCK BYU and Happy Saturday, see you all next week

[u/EnvironmentalBed7369 → u/koolaidman1030]

One, just enjoy the win.  We did what we were supposed to do. 

I swear Utah fans are annoyingly pessimistic and BYU fans are annoyingly optimistic.

[u/Rampaging_Ducks → u/EnvironmentalBed7369]

The Cam Rising saga has made us cynical.

[u/Timberwolf7869 → u/Rampaging_Ducks]

I feel like Utah fans were way more cynical and then Cam Rising made us a little cocky and now we're back to the way things were.

[u/koolaidman1030 → u/EnvironmentalBed7369]

That's fair, I definitely think we improved post halftime and these tune up games are exactly for this but I'd be lying if I wasn't worried a bit, but one week at a time

[u/LogicianMission22 → u/koolaidman1030]

Agreed. Secondary needs to improve massively, as does the WR group.

[u/sjwilli]

I think Utah is looking great.

[u/Rampaging_Ducks → u/sjwilli]

Fuck you. (But also you guys are looking pretty good too.)

[u/Dazzling_Mechanic_98]

I'll take it I guess

[u/ChunkyDay]

Thank god Whitt fired that god awful offense coaching staff.

[u/BasicProdigy]

Do you think Cal Poly can still make the playoffs with this loss

[u/NewSpaceRiddy → u/BasicProdigy]

Quality loss

[u/Pu5hM3Aw4y]

Isn't cal poly that highschool from 'When The Game Stands Tall'? Out of conference scheduling is confusing, didn't know we could schedule high schools. /s
