Ridiculous

The 16th-ranked (14th in the BCS) Utah Utes, at 7-1, pull another Kyle-ism. Heading to play the totally clueless, non-competitive, 0-8 New Mexico Lobos, the Utes find themselves in the midst of a quarterback controversy. Again. This time, as they did earlier this season, they will not name a starter until the first offensive snap, so the opposition won't know who to prepare for. Are you kidding me, K-Whit? They are 0-8, losing by an average of over 25 points a game. Only twice have they lost by less than 10, and they have played some pretty bad teams. You could tell them what play you are running each time and still win this game. He may be a great coach, wonderful at X's and O's, good at recruiting the states of Texas and California, but he's an idiot when it comes to stuff like this.

In reality, I am sure it has nothing to do with New Mexico, as he claims. I think he just doesn't want TCU to know 2 weeks ahead of time who he is planning to start, because it will probably be the same next week at TCU. He wants to make sure the Horned Frogs have one week, and only one week, to prepare for what the Utes will bring on offense (besides complete ineptness, total chaos, and sheer lack of execution for 3 of the 4 quarters despite being the second most talented O in the conference behind TCU). Still, I think it's dumb, just as it was dumb when he did this prior to the Utah State game this season. Man up, if you are the better team, then you don't need trickeration to win. You know what else is dumb? Losing 38-7 to TCU at home, on homecoming, when College Game Day is in town...

  1. Right on with this topic. I don't get not naming a starter either.
