Tough shit, but it's life. If anything, we learned that the line is alright and Threet is the better of the two. This isn't the end of the world. |

If Illinois and MSU lose, my day is a wash.

On a side note, Bob Davie needs to take his nose out of Juice's ass.
Outside of that one nice TD pass, Juice has missed a bunch of open receivers and completed five or six screen passes. Lot of good that working with McNabb did for him this past summer.

It's a good thing MSU's defense sucks.

Maybe it was because Utah rarely blitzed and when they did it came from DB's out on the periphery but UM's offensive line looked bad especially run blocking wise. That said, the starting defensive line looked outstanding.. beyond that there is little depth though. But Threet is so much better than Sheridan.. Sheridan sucks monkey balls. |

The lack of a running game also was because anytime McGuffie touched the ball, he was so flippin' hesitant that nothing ever happened. By "ok", I suppose I mean "at least they weren't Notre Dame bad". Sheridan does suck hard. So many ducks. Despite the loss, I'm positive about the season. I still think 8-4 is realistic. Illinois defense is terrible, as is MSU's and PSU & Wisky have their issues offensively. Threet needs to get better (obviously) but I don't think I'm out of line saying we can still get 8-4. |

Wow, am I glad this game is in the books.
I know Davie is an idiot, but Jesus F. Christ, he just can't keep his mouth shut about Zook and Illinois. He's been riding their balls all night.

McGuffie sucked but the o-line certainly didn't help him.. Sheridan has to be the worst QB I've ever seen. Steve lol Bellisari could've done better. Wasn't McGuffie's fault so much as it was the O-Line. the ONE play he had a hole (albeit one a tad bigger then a virgin's p***y) he scored a TD... rest of the time he had to work with shit.. and no I'm not trying to attack you sportsbuck, just quoting you. And yes, Sheridan blows hard. I've been saying it since the beginning of forever (when we hired RR), if Sheridan starts we ain't going to do shit on offense. His better "decision making" SHOULD have turned out 4 INTs hadn't Utah sucked it up and dropped them all/get PI penalties on them. Threet has the better arm, RR has to drop his dream of zone reading this year and just wait until he can have a QB who can run it. We wasted a whole fucking half with Sheridan, and even though Threet's stat line sucked and he throw passes like 10 yards over the WR's heads, he had a shitload more zip on his passes and a helluva lot better arm.. If Sheridan finishes out the year, we'll be 7-5 AT BEST. Threet HAS to play, and without him our bowl streak is going to be seriously in jeopardy.. Notre Dame, Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan State, Penn State and Ohio State could all beat us if we played them right now. Damn I sound pessimistic as fuck as I reread this, but that shit has to happen. |

If we start Sheridan next week, it's really going to test me as a fan. Because its very obvious who the better of the two is.

I didn't watch the game yesterday, but McGuffie always hesitated in HS... get used to it. The new renovations at DKR-RMS at UT looked pretty nice. We're pretty happy with our seats this year... 10 rows from the field.    |

ahh...it's nice not having any expectations when you know that your team sucks. Hooray mediocrity!
I've learned to accept that we suck and we'll never amount to a BCS caliber team. Can't wait for the OU and tech games! My prediction for both 112-3 and 98-2 respectively.
