Got this email today about refillable cups. Says CC members, but I bet anyone can get them.

Pollster QB2

3:24pm

That's not very helpful for those of us not near Provo.

RE: That's not very helpful for those of us not near Provo.

Pollster

3:27pm

Trick is, they won't let you in the stadium with them.

DirtyWater

3:26pm

I imagine they will check your CC status the way they did last season for access to the "freebie" tent.

kccougar

3:27pm

Just saw the Apple Cup is going to be on Peacock.

AltTabbins I got UtahFootballGM banned.

3:23pm

Hate that they are pushing Peacock as much as they are.

Cougar TD

3:29pm

3rd and 17. Arod calls a pass behind the line

claw

3:23pm

Not necessarily. I've been plenty critical of the play calling

CommodoreCoug

3:24pm

No, very common to call a screen pass on 3rd and forever. We have picked up

RGGeemer

3:26pm

3rd and long the defense often blitzes anticipating a long pass play.

Reasonable1

3:28pm

Nope.

Jeffacka

3:27pm

Didn't we waste a timeout before that play too?

Captain Stubing

3:29pm

Is it more important to have the offense clicking now or later in the season

MadHawaiian

3:23pm

So you're saying we will have a new QB in November?

Huge Manatee

3:24pm

PCL for Puka. Going on IR

spidercoug

3:21pm

Bummer. Puka was the best part of NFL weekends last year.

Blueto

3:22pm

Retzlaff - still not bought in... SIU was not a test... SMU we saw all the same mistakes that caused us to lose 4 games

ChinaFan All-American

3:15pm

Yep....the same things we saw against Oklahoma and Ok St. came up at SMU

WJCougar

3:16pm

We lost to Oklahoma by 7 points and Retzlaff had 3 turnovers, including a 100 yard

It will continue until something changes.

Hobo

3:28pm

He is our QB until he isn't. I can't follow the coaching staff's decision making with this. We will all be surprised....

Bonoman

3:18pm

Retzlaff is who he is. Anyone expecting him to reinvent himself into something

NOCAL_YFAN

3:26pm

Did James Earl Jones have the most iconic voice of all time?

arizonacougarfan

3:15pm

Him or Morgan Freeman

Blueto

3:16pm

Yes, though Morgan Freeman is close

Mikey

3:16pm

He's up there. Will Ferrell, Tom Hanks, Morgan Freeman, Sean Connery are all fairly iconic.

byujacob

John Wayne and Jimmy Stewart too

Sir David Attenborough too. It ain't a nature doc unless he voiced it

COUGND

Top percentile to be sure. Instantly recognizable.

Squirt

Either him or Fran Drescher.

JAGA97

I would say he is in the top 4 with Connery, Freeman, and Attenborough.

I noticed that too. I hate flopping but you have to do it in that spot.

ybecausethatswhy

3:19pm

One play provided an example of O line struggles...

NOCAL_YFAN

3:10pm

The real question is why isn't our line good enough to line up with Retzlaff under center and just push it forward for

scall

3:13pm

Especially against SMU. If we can't do it to them, we have no chance against

NOCAL_YFAN

SMU has a decent DL. Brought in 8 P4 transfers to add to what they had coming back. It's not tissue paper.

Problem is the backs weren't good when LJ came out.

The O-line seems to clear half the field on the TD run.

Hawk in the 303

They think they can run up the back of an OL and make yardage…

ochobeeguy

I'm not sold either. Not judging yet, but certainly early look leaves ?'s

His words were pretty plain — that QB performance wasn't satisfactory. And it wasn't.
