(Blue) Viva Las Vegas!

Things look grim for head coach of UNLV, Sanford. I think he'd better start exploring the job market. But things went well in the game for us. 611 total offense, double digit scores in all four quarters. Hall kept the ball to himself and people in blue (actually white.) Too bad UNLV gave up over 700 the week before against Nevada, but that's a different story. So pretty much what was expected. A couple of dark spots were the huge punt return that gave them a score and a 70 something yard pass play. So 14 of their points on two plays. But to counter that, we had some picks and our rush game was strong. Unga, Tonga, JJ Pili etc. High five to them. Next week against San Diego in California. I suspect that game will go much like this last one.

Now Utah, I think they played an average game(despite what Red might tell you) while Colorado played an above average game. It was up in Ft Collins and it was COLD. But hey, it gets cold here too so I am not buying that as an excuse. Granted, it was homecoming for the Rams, that probably helped them. But Utah looked a bit lack luster for me, and if it hadn't of been for some fortuitous picks, things could have looked really ugly. Next week, UNLV in Vegas. The U will win. Probably by more than 14. I would guess... 45 to 27. We'll see. Utah needs to stop dragging early as they have been doing, and to get a bit better on sustaining drives.

Interesting other news was the Air Force and TCU game. Interesting stuff.
