A look at Utah - washingtonismoney - 07-18-2014

Interesting look at Utah from Bill Connnelly:

Quote:Utah finished a healthy 31st in the F/+ rankings last year, but the Utes never really played like the No. 31 team in the country.

For five games, they were a legitimate top-20 squad, losing two frustrating games because of turnovers -- Travis Wilson was either unlucky with the turnovers or throws such a catchable ball that even defenders can't drop them -- and late-game drama. They tied Oregon State with 21 seconds left but lost in OT; then, down seven against UCLA, they drove to the Bruin 23 with 26 seconds left but failed on fourth down. They were minus-seven in turnovers in those two games and still almost went 2-0. That's both encouraging and mortifying. More encouraging: the Utes beat Stanford the week after the UCLA game.

Then Travis Wilson regressed and got injured.

Connelly has reviewed six Pac 12 teams so far.  It looks like the following page will have links to the whole conference, with a new one added each day.

We'll be second-to-last in the conference -- only Oregon ranks ahead of us in their five-year metric.
