  1. Utah has by far their most difficult schedule ever. 11 P5 games with Baylor, OSU, USC and Washington on the road. Hard to see how they don't drop a couple.
  2. Sorry, the "other people were dicks to me so it is ok to be a dick to you" excuse doesn't float. You are being a jackass and trying to kick others while they are down, celebrating not CU's accomplishment but others misfortune. USC fans and UCLA fans didn't do that, even though lots of random people on twitter gave their schools shit. You seem good with being an ass, so have fun. I will find no joy in any of the schools here suffering because of matters beyond their control.
  3. Utah could very well end up going to Big 12, as it seems finances and stability may make it irresponsible not to. I will be sad about not playing western schools in areas I prefer and being associated with top tier research Universities. If it happens, I certainly would not come here, gloat, and try to rub others noses in it. I always kind of gave Jalapeño a pass, as he seems to be kind of "special", but he has been acting like an ass bragging about the big "invite".
  4. I wasn't referring to you.
  5. Just amusing when a simpleton CU fan comes in swinging their dick because they "got the first invite to the Big12". Big 12 would have taken anyone from the Pac from the moment that Texas/OU announced they were leaving until the present. Depending on how you look at it, CU decided that Big 12 was best fit, or CU panicked; either way being the first to join Big 12 is nothing to brag about.
  6. That is on CU, Utah has greatly benefitted. Joining Big12 will certainly further lower academic reputation. I am hoping Utah can avoid this, but it may come down to survival.
  7. Any Pac team that wanted in to the Big12 could have gotten the invite. Most schools would rather be going to Seattle, San Francisco, Salt Lake, Phoenix, etc. than Lubbock, Waco, Stillwater, etc. and they prefer partnering with actual academic Universities.
  8. My experience much different. The point was that if he is successful he leaves for a higher profile job, if he fails he gets replaced. Allowing him to make decisions impacting CU athletic department long term would be foolish.
  9. One way or the other, I would wager Deion is not at Colorado in 5 years.
  10. Pretty unexpected and shocking. For the first 15 minutes or so, I was doubting that it was real.
  11. I would imagine you also get Amazon Prime ( we had it for free shipping, streaming is a bonus ), Several good series have been on that, I get Paramount + for free with my subscription to 247 sports. Has all the Taylor Sheridan shows, as well as all Star Trek series. I get Peacock for free with Comcast Internet ( had to get their streaming box, which is free, but never set it up ). Also have Youtube app on the firestick.
  12. As for UCLA, their last Rose Bowl appearance was in 1999 ( 24 years ago ) and their last Rose Bowl win was in 1986 ( 37 years ago ), so they probably figure they might as well get paid, as they didn't fare all that well in the PAC either. The thing the move could screw up is their basketball program, which has actually had success.
  13. Seems a lot of the rumors and "leaks" are coming from Big 12 and their supporters. We'll see how everything shakes out in the end.
  14. He was on local radio for a year or two and got run off. He always had ridiculous takes was calling for Whittingham's head and just a blowhard in general.
  15. Saw who the streamer was and quit watching. Monte is an idiot.
  16. I would guess rather than guaranteeing 3 transcontinental travel games every year, they would put USC and UCLA with some of the conferences bigger brands so they could get the west coast recruiting and exposure.

  18. I think he was more referring to the weather than the crowd. All late season road games outside of USC will be in cold weather climates when you guys leave.
  19. Ute's schedule pretty brutal this year. 11 P5 games, Baylor, Oregon State, USC and Washington all on the road. Oregon the only Pac team that is supposed to be contending that the Utes get at home. Stanford and Wazzu are the Northern teams they miss.

  21. Cam Rising, Brant Kuithe, Thomas Yazmin and Devon Vele all announce that they are coming back to play for the Utes next season.
