by WVUIE97 on Sep 25, 2011 7:39 AM PDT on The Smoking Musket

It was definitely an electric atmosphere in Morgantown all day and into the night yesterday, but horrendous field position and turnovers were the undoing of our Mountaineers. After being down 27-7 at the half, the team showed some resilience that I wasn't sure they had against arguably the best...

In 2004, ESPN GameDay made its first trip to the state of Utah and went live from the south-west corner of Rice-Eccles Stadium's parking lot. It was only the second fourth time a non-BCS team hosted the event (the first was Air Force) and after a six year hiatus, the program is back. This time...

This is the biggest game in the history of Utah football. It's the biggest college football game to take place inside the borders of Utah. Hyperbole and platitudes aside - this is a huge game. Utah needs to win it and more importantly, we fans need to bring it. That could prove to be the...

Big-time college football in Utah

The state of Utah will never look to football like most southern states. Down there, it is a religion. They eat, sleep and drink college football. Here, it's more a hobby. That's not to say we don't have our diehards, we do, but they're in less quantity than what you would find in Alabama. So when...
