    Kruger will be playing.

      Are you certain?

      If so, that is a HUGE thing, IMO.

      No Kruger, no Blechen and possibly no Rowe would have been quite a blow to this defense.

        I don't know how you could know that until Tuesday.

        They usually suspend guys for a half for fighting.

          Has anyone seen just what happened? Maybe they'll look at it and decide it doesn't warrant a suspension. I'm sure if he plays there will be a lot of incredulous people on CB and local sports radio.

            From what I can tell no one has any video footage of it, so I can't see how you suspend someone with no proof.

              The more incredulity on the part of CB and local sports media, the better. That usually means good things for Utah fans.

                Utah DE Joe Kruger's ejection Friday will not be followed by an additional suspension. Action at USU was deemed "striking" not "fighting."

                    Does throwing a punch (I think that was the ref's terminology) constitute "fighting", as per NCAA rules? If not, i would agree. If so, wouldn't video proof be necessary to prove his innocence?

                    I honestly don't feel strongly, either way. I'm just curious what defines fighting.

                      Heh, whatever makes them feel good about things.

                      I'm surprised there seems to be no video footage of said punch.

                        One sports gambling site has Utah as a 1 point favorite.

                        I'm not sure what the line will actually be, but I still think these teams are probably evenly matched.

                          The first line out (i can find) shows Utah a 2.5 dog. I had guessed BYU -3, but think it will settle at -1.5 or -2.0

                            In stake conference today we were given suggested goals for the rest of the year, the last of which is "to love everyone." Accordingly, I will try to love both Utah and BYU fans -- this week especially. With a heart full of love, I hope the Utes beat BYU by as big a score as possible.

                              Why do we need video footage? At least one ref saw it.

                                Allegedly saw it. In fact, the latest information is that Kruger was guilty only of "striking" the other player. I'm shocked -- shocked! -- at the rush to judgment you all seem to be making.
