OT. Oregon or Utah?

[OhioLion]

I’m thinking this is going to get butt ugly for the Utes. could be 31-0 by half.

OL

 

[psuro]

Juwan Johnson made a nice block on the 4th down play.

Yeah, he didnt have to use his hands

 

[SUPERTODD]

Utah blows! This team would be lucky to finish fourth in the Big Ten East.

 

[BudatPSU]

I would root for Oregon and hope they get into the Rose Bowl. Then I’d like to see Penn State get in also. That would set up a 25 year reunion from that great 1994 team.

 

[NittanyIllinois]

They shoulda’ been behind PSU to begin with (especially Utah)

Now, let's not discount Utah's SIGNATURE WIN over.......Arizona State?

The hype surrounding this team was just insane when you take a closer look at their actual resume.

They're a good fundamentally sound football team. A long way from "great", though.

 

[step.eng69]

Yeah, I was trying to give them credit going in to a potential match-up with tOSU. The Bucknuts by 5 TDs +.

Snob

 

[ram2020]

Boy, I'd be pissed if this utah offensive coordinator was ours, the runs are so obvious, they put the qb behind center whenever they run.

 

[paws1957]

How was that not targeting?

 

[psu00]

If we want a Cotton bowl possibility then we need Utah to win.

The Cotton bowl would mean a game against Memphis or Cincinnati. I’d pass on Jerry world this year.

 

[paws1957]

Of course Herbie would have a different opinion if that hit was made on Fields!

 

[mrmk5110]

If this keeps up I dont think you have to worry about Utah taking a NY6 spot. This is more Utah playing awful than Oregon playing great.

 

[artsandletters]

Doesn't matter. I personally want Utah to have a top 10 Rose Bowl matchup.

Does Solomon Enis get many snaps for Utah?

 

[PeetzPoolBoy]

Playing either of these Pac12 teams in the Rose Bowl would be a major “Meh”. Let Wisconsin go.

Let’s hope for something better.

He did get a few targets and catches early in the season IiRC

Despite tonight's game by UT, I think both teams match up well with PSU.

 

[PeetzPoolBoy]

No thanks. It would be like playing vs. a polished turd

 

[MohawkLion]

Guess this is what happens when Utah plays someone with a pulse. Not counting them out, but it’s lookin bleak. If they do get blown out tho, wouldn’t be surprised if they’re given the MN treatment....or worse cause they have zero wins worth noting.

 

[LMTLION]

We would have problems handling herbert unless the dline get a push.

 

[NittanyIllinois]

Despite tonight's game by UT, I think both teams match up well with PSU.

Oregon especially would give us all we could handle.

They stretch the field well, and they run it well. And their d-line is very aggressive and athletic. Their freshman DE stud from California is going to be a great one. Was one of the top recruits in the nation last year.

They haven't been consistently dominant this year, but when they're on, they're really tough.

 

[ILLINOISLION]

No problem with Oregon’s O.....double team #3 and totally ignore #6!

 

[psu00]

Utah’s about to come out fired up in the second half and win this thing!!

 

[PeetzPoolBoy]

At least one of those two targeting calls was “targeting”, wasn’t it? Weird game.

 

[PearlSUJam]

Oregon crowd are great golf clappers.

 

[paws1957]

Herbie is a c^nt.

He is good at it though!

 

[anon_xdc8rmuek44eq]

Oregon crowd are great golf clappers.

It also goes without saying the only competition on the West Coast for the Song Girls are the Oregon cheerleaders...

 

[PeetzPoolBoy]

Enis with a good catch and impressive after-catch effort reminiscent of his father.

 

[paws1957]

Oh that was a nice snap there!

 

[McCloudersportLion]

The upper deck of the stadium is 80% empty. The Wack 12 is the only power 5 that would have a conference game with playoff implications and it that empty even with some Utah fans beating traffic. It wouldn't surprise me if we are 25 years into the college football playoff and a Pac whatever school hasnt won it.

 

[SheldonJoe2215]

Does Saban really need the money enough that he has to do those shitty AFLAC commercials?

Oh, silly, Southern Cal is a dynasty, just in between periods of dominance. Much better job than PSU -- even PSU fans will tell us that.

 

[anon_xdc8rmuek44eq]

P12 “Cheerleaders”?

1) UCLA
2) Oregon (though they often seem to be missing their poles)
3) USC

Someone please pick up the flags

Oh, I believe you are mistaken here. UCLA is third at best. It's USC >>>>>>>Oregon>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>UCLA. UCLA has talent though.

 

[BostonNit]

Nightmare scenario would be JJ catching a game winning TD and shush'ing us.

 

[jmorovich]

 

[LionRange]

Maybe the Utah defense was only ranked high because the best offense they played was USC’s 3rd string Quarterback. Just maybe....

Michigan and Iowa are both better than Utah

 

[ryoder1]

Utah loss should open up Cotton for PSU if it comes to that. I don't see Cotton wanting Utah vs Cincy for example. B12 teams will now get Playoff and Sugar if LSU wins. If GA wins then that opens up Orange for PSU. All this assumes we don't get Rose.

 

[PeetzPoolBoy]

Does PSU really have anything to gain by playing either Oregon or Utah in the Rose Bowl? The makings of a putrid game regardless if it’s us or Wisconsin.

I’m rooting for Wisconsin tomorrow to hopefully displace PSU from the Rose and place us in a more meaningful Bowl game.

Like the orange against Virginia? Or cotton against...Memphis? I’ll take the Rose.

If you dont"t care about a NY6 bowl bid then root for Wisky and LSU then hope we get Outback against Bama. However, as I just posted I think in that scenario we will go to Cotton. I think the Outback may be out of play for us with Utah"s loss.
