  • Week 7 Open Thread

    For those living in the 'Tah, does it seem like all the buzz has left the building?

    Both schools started the season with high hopes. After week 1, the buzz was really palpable.

    A few weeks later and both teams are struggling, for different reasons. And both fanbases are down, for different reasons.

    Anyhow, I'm leaving on a jet plane this afternoon to go to tonight's game in SF. Enjoy week 7!
    Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

        You agreed with Penn at Columbia and UMass at Delaware?
        Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

              If you have to ask, you wouldn't understand.

                The Buzz left the building a number of years ago when Ga. Tech threatened a lawsuit for copyright infringement.

                The excitement of the season may have left for those who are bandwagoners. Speaking for myself, I'm still pumped that the Utes are playing in a conference with better competition from top to bottom. Despite being 0-3, I like that I look at the schedule and see games that I could have only hoped would be OOC games last year. Next home game for the Utes is the team that the BYU plays this week. Fun times.

                  As much as I enjoy going to games, it will be nice to wake up at 9:30 for the Utes game and after 1:30 have the rest of the day open.

                    You won't be awake by 9:30?

                          So sleeping in on Saturday disqualifies you from having life goals?
