    Using SC as a common opponent:

    NoCho: zero wins
    Sark: zero losses

    Neither stat matters this weekend, but you did ask.

    Will SU cheer for Utah and against the Huskies in front of his kids? Doubtful. That would be confusing and would undo all of the careful nurturing he has done thus far.

    EDIT: Never mind. Game is in Utah and no TV in the SU household. Crisis averted for one year.

    I agree if Wynn can complete 50% of his passes and have 1 out of 4 dropped by defenders after he hits them in the chest Utah will be just fine. Also if John White can get bottled up with 57 yards on 19 carries through 3 quarters until the other teams defense says Eff this our offense sucks and they quit I think utah wins going away.
    I wouldn't count on Washington giving up like another team not to be named. Washington was down 44-17 to Nebraska in the fourth quarter and didn't mail it in. The Huskies still lost 51-38 but the game was closer then the score.

    I expect a high scoring game, close game.

    I'm still not sold on the Ute's offense, though after the BYU game, I'm not as concerned about it as I was after the first two games. If Wynn can have a game like he did against BYU - play well enough to get the ball to his receivers - the offense should be fine, especially with Jamora being out, as per KL's link. White should have another good game, as UW's rush defense isn't great.

    I think Washington's offense will be more of a challenge for Utah's defense than any of the games thus far. The key to the game will be how the Ute linebackers play. If they hold their own, I really believe that Utah will win a close game.

    Actually I do think Utah wins, but I think it will be close. Then again, I am only 50/50 so far this year so yeah I don't know shit.

    the family has cancelled plans to watch the game together:. Now just the ute fans will be going to the game.

    Yes, it was early and I didn't apply my usual filters, thereby committing libel per se. I apologize and withdraw my remark.

    Defensively Washington is light on Linebackers and their best one suffered a neck injury on Saturday (Carted off the field and taken to the hospital). I wouldn't expect him back for the Utah game. That being said it works well for Utah as Washington was only playing three LBs and more Defensive backs.

    Look for Utah to Run the ball extensively to force DBs to make tackles.

    This is a good matchup. Two branches of the Lavelle tree square off. One a seasoned vet who has reached the pinnacle, the other a young one who seems to have stablished he can coach. Sarkisian is still rebuilding, the Huskies look a little at loose ends and soft, but he's taken them a long ways. I'm afraid it won't be so long before Sark is USC's coach. They're both good guys. It always adds a layer of anxiety for me when the opposing coach is a prick, like Bronco. The universities look a lot like one another--Utah is kind of an upper middle class man's Washington. It feels good to be in the same conference with an elite school in every way like Washington!
