    My guess is that people bought over the summer expecting to be able to resell at a profit much like BYU fans did today with the ute game. Sticker shock here is real and to be expected. Fans here are not used to paying those prices over the course of a football season.

    To give you an idea of gauging market by what is available directly from the school, go try to buy a block of 4 tickets for today's game at byutickets.com Then go check a secondary source.
    Gotcha.

                The fact that Norm Chow is Utah's O-Coordinator gives me great hope. He brought a much more talented team in a few years back and left with a 56-0 loss. Let's just hope Jake and Co. don't give Utah short fields. Turnovers are the only way I see Utah winning this game.

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                        Sweet! You guys shut out USC at home? I guess I missed that one.

                        Or are you talking about NewWeasel's offense at UCLA? The team you had to play TWICE to beat, and only after the Utes showed you how to do it?

                        Just curious.

                                    Utah is going to lose. That is all.

                                        Yeah, maybe it would if it were accurate. BYU faced UCLA with Norm Chow exactly one time, and the result was a 59-0 victory for BYU.

                                            After going to USC last week, BYU is quite the departure. Zero tailgating atmosphere.

                                            I shouldn't be surprised, though.

                                                    UCLA's talent is better? Uh, no. Their coaching staff isn't as good, either.

                                                            They haven't done much with it, but SI says UCLA had the #4 recruiting class in '09. Not sure what their rank was last year, but I'd wager it was higher than Utah's. For that very reason, I can't argue with the second part of your statement.

                                                            Edit: A quick google search shows a #10 ranking by ESPN for UCLA's 2010 class. #36 for 08 and #20 in 07.
