    Is there a team in America

    more boring and uninteresting than the Utes?

    I rarely hear anything about them from the national media. If they are mentioned it's usually a throwaway after the commenter has already discussed TCU and Boise State at length. Even here on this board about 90% of the football discussion is BYU-related with heavy Ute fan participation. JIC will take time and great care to assemble a thoughtful discussion about the Utes' upcoming opponent, but the thread participation is minimal. A thread about what Bronco ate for lunch would get more comments (and more Ute fan participation).

    I haven't really taken any time to watch the Utes this season, but are they really that flavorless?

    This is what happens when up to this point in the season you have played the most boring and uninteresting schedule in the country.

            You should do something really interesting like lose to an awful Utah St team, then things would be better and people would talk about us again.

              The only team that even comes close is Notre Dame. NBC has got to hate to be hating that contract right now.

                I don't expect you to comment on Ute sports. In fact, I don't believe you ever have unless it's somehow BYU related.

                  Honestly what's to say? Besides the sloppy opening game (that incidentally shouldn't have been as close as it was) they have blown out their opponents.

                      A 6-0 record and #9 ranking pretty much speak for themselves, no?

                        Haven't you heard? 2-5 is the new 6-0!

                        Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

                          Just wait until they play the Utes.

                            There was a lot of talk in advance of the Pittsburgh game who at the time looked formidable. Since then we have not played a team that presents a serious threat to us. Hard to get worked up about teams you are going to debacle.

                              When your team is boring and uninteresting, yes.
