National Champs!!!!!





I have to take the time to say GO UTES!!!

I don't understand how anyone can say that they aren't and that the BCS isn't broken. To quote Rick Reilly
"Some gifts people give are pointless: Styling mousee to Dick Vitale. An all-you-can-eat card to Kate Moss. THE BCS CHAMPIONSHIP GIVEN TO OKLAHOMA OR FLORDIA." No one else went undeafeated this season, beat four ranked trams, and won thier bowl game against a tream that was ranked #1 for 5 weeks. The same team that Florida squeezed past to get into the BCS Championship game. Oh and Utah also has the longest bowl winning streak in the nation with eight straight. As former coach Urban Meyers stated "You don't really understand the whole mechanics, investment and passion that these coaches have," If a coach didn't argue for his team,"that's not a good coach." And that is just what Whittingham is doing. Following friday night's win coach Whittingham stated that he will "vote them #1"in the coaches poll, and hope more coaches do!!!
I think it is great that Utah's attorney general, Mark Shurtleff, is investigating the Bowl Championship Series for a possible vilation of the federal anititrust laws after an undefeated Utes team was left out of the national title game for the second time in five years. "It's not bragging rights. It's a multimillion dollar -- hundreds of millions -- business where the BCS schools get richer and non-BCS get poorer," Shurtleff said.
So in my opinion we should have shirts, hats, flags, and rings stating "University of Utah Utes National Champions 2008" if anyone wants to dispute it, let them come and play the Utes and fight for the title.
