I fully expect that second to last picture to get you in to a least a little bit of trouble.

And I expect the Utes to upset the Wolverines and move into the top 25!

Hey man, let's just win. Blow out would be great, but lets not get ahead of our selves.

BYU will probably get beat.....wait....they're playing D-8 colleges..

Yeah, a win would really get Utah going for the year.

It would be awesome to get some national coverage that way.

Utes should win this pretty easily. scUM s offense is worse than your local high school.

I think optimism is running a little too high on the Utes. These players tend to be a little injury prone. Though that new Jr College WR transfer seems to be really good.

That being said ... I think optimism is running outrageously high on the Cougs by BYU fans.

Go Utes.

This will be an interesting game for the Utes. On the one hand they are going into a tough place to play, against a team that got absolutelyu EMBARRASSED last year on their opener....I dont think they want that happening again. On the other hand, I think Utah could be a tough team. They have some pretty decent talent at most positions. This game could go either way....

As a BYU fan (Go Cougs!)....I would like to see the Utes lose, just because I like seeing the Utes lose....however, if they win, it will only make BYU look that much better when we spank them at RES!!! :D

Im sick of this injury prone talk. Brian Johnson has been injured twice in 5 yrs. Matt Asiata had a freak leg injury, Brent Casteel was put on a suicide machine by Grady when he passed him the ball instead of throwing it away.

I think this game is a pure coin toss. Regardless of how "crappy" Michigan is, they are still a team full of Big 10 talent. Utah has to come out like they did against UCLA and Louisville last yr if they want to win this.

BYU is opening up against the SUU grey squad, look for Lavell Edwards to play some LG.

Utah is looking really good so far. The Michigan defense really looks like they can't stop Utah. Stupid mistakes have cost the Utes though, or they could really be up big right now.

Special teams has been crappy, fumbled punt, blocked punt.

And don't forget the penalties.

Stupid penalties . . . horrible special teams.

Brian Johnson also threw a HORRIBLE pick in the Red Zone. Didnt seem too big at the time, but its proved to be huge.

Not quit the blow out that I predicted but a W none the less. Here's hoping that we won't have that many stupid penalties in every game this year. GO UTES!!!
