Great quote from Utah's head basketball coach about his team being picked last in the Big12. I know that he is talking about basketball, but he must have thinking about the football team when he said this:
Smith said. "You see all these polls, and polls are always interesting. You can look around at all the different sports right now, and some teams were picked at the top or near the top and are struggling and vice versa. So anything can happen. That's the beauty of sports."
