Lot's of high points totals for Utah in these predictions. Makes sense given the output their offense had in the first two games. I am slowly beginning to believe we have a damn good defense this year. It will be a great test to see where our defense really stands. I think Bohl/Sawvel will have a plan to contain Dampier a bit better than we have in the past.
Holding them under 30 would be good. If we somehow hold them under 20, that would be spectacular. The more I think about it, the more I expect our defense to overperform most people's expectations. Unfortunately, I think people are underestimating Utah's defense. They are pretty good. I'm predicting they shut us out in the first half and we get a field goal at some point in the second half. That means that barring the defense scoring, I only see us scoring 3 points.
Obviously, not expecting a win, but I would be happy with just a great defensive performance.
