    These are precious times indeed. Senioritis will lose his edge when the Utes are back. Even getting a respectable coach inducing some hope will result in loss of black humor, edge, a decline, alas. Senioritis is more Woody Allen than Homer.
    When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

      Well, my phone crapped out, which wasn't the lowest point of the evening. Really, you spend like $400 on a freaking cellular telephone, why would you expect it to function properly even a slight majority of the time? AT&T is the Bernie Madoff of the telecommunications industry, or something.

      Game thoughts:

      1. Hooray!

      2. Wyoming went from Heath Shroyer to Dom DeLuise. I can't even imagine what is next on that continuum, but it's got to have something to do with the "Leave Britney Alone!!!" guy.

      3. Utah is on a roll. Next up, Lobos in the Pit. Step up to get whacked, snitches.

        have we already seen the nadir of the Utah program? Or is it yet to come?

          I hope so.

            I just noticed that the Ute uniforms for this year include a shout out to the MUSS on the bottom of the shorts (heh). How long has that been on there? I've never heard of a college team putting the acronym of the student section on their uniforms before.

              The red have MUSS and the white have U, US, MUSS. I didn't notice them last year, but BO is the master of uniform conformity.

                Well, I see that BYU's unis have a "Y" on the shorts. I've never heard of a college team putting existential questions on their uniforms before.

                  I was trying to draw attention to the U's innovative tip of the cap to its student section but you can't help but poke fun. Shame on you.

                    I actually think it's cool that "MUSS" in on the unis. It's very Boylenesque. If only his coaching skills matched his warmth, decency and marketing creativity.

                      I remember seeing it at least 2 seasons ago-at least on the white uniforms.

                        Student section on the uniform? Ok.

                        I wonder when Duke is going to put "Cameron Crazies" on their shorts?

                            Jeez falawful, where have you been? MUSS has been on the shorts since Boylen's first season. Johnnie Bryant was a senior during the 2007-08 campaign.

                              BO, I read somebody on Utefans say Clyburn was seen in a wheel chair and Jiggy is out for the season. I can hardly log on there. What's going on? Is this for real or more Boylen apologetics?

                                Per KFAN Clyburn has a bruise in one of the foot bones. Gametime decision on whether he plays against UNM. Havent heard anything about Jiggy.
