Utes going to a private scrimmage vs Arizona

[U-Ute]

I've never heard of such a thing before.

I think this is a good thing. Much better than playing some disinterested ex-college scrubs.

[SeattleUte]

Interesting. Yes, I think it's a good idea.

BYU and Jimmer made Arizona look worse than "some disinterested ex-college scrubs" last season.

But yeah, your guys will really struggle against that team so a scrimmage is a good idea.

Arizona would handle BYU this year. They play a similar game, but Arizona has more race horses and their young studs are a year older.

It's not a hypothetical question. We play on December 11 at ESA and BYU will be favored by at least 10-15 points.

BYU will kill Arizona at ESA this season.

Okay, I didn't know that. I'll reserve judgment. What's the ESA?

Energy Solutions Arena (formerly the Delta Center).

You never know, but Arizona looked pretty outmanned by BYU last year. I have no doubt that Sean Miller will eventually turn things around at Arizona, but it will probably take a few years.

No, it will take until maybe next year. He's recruiting off the charts, picking up right where Lute left off. This will be BYU's last chance to get a piece of them. They will soon be a if not the dominant program in the Pac.

Also, it's not the same Arizona team. For one thing, they've added a bunch of talented players. I predict Arizona wins. BYU will be a one trick pony this year.

BYU won't be favored by 10-15 points. It may well be an underdog.

LOL. Do you know how bad the Pac 10 is?

Lol.

Lol.

I love the back pedalling. This will be a fun thread to revisit after the game.

I know UNC has done this the past two years. Not sure if they did it this year.

[HuskyFreeNorthwest]

Back to the point of the thread. What is a private scrimmage? Are fans not allowed? Is this a clever way of getting around game limits by calling it a scrimmage?
