Utahs 08 and 04 team under Whit could have won it all. Is it likely Utah can win it all, no. But in 08 they beat Alabama lead by Nick Sabin far more convincingly than Florida whom won the championship. So if we take the 08 Utah team and make that season a playoff season. After they beat Bama they would have had a chance to beat Florida for the championship. So it is possible Whit could win it all at Utah. Utah in 08 finished the season ranked 2. In the non playoff era. So it is possible Utah has enough talent and a good enough coach. The reason small programs don’t get a chance and blue bloods do get a chance is because of money. $$$
I couldn't agree more, the referees are obligated to referee in honor of their own conference, when it's a non-conference game, then when it's a conference game, the referee's ref in favor of the bigger team nationally. This, is the national perception, but yet not spoken of.
One of the [many] problems these days is with all of the overly opinionated media "experts" who arent experts at all, and whose personal track records regarding accuracy is rarely publicized. The general Media [sports included] has become a playground for misfit professionals and is a complete joke.
Not a fan of Utah but…saying they couldn’t win a natty ever….thats a strong statement that I would have to disagree with
No way Utah wins a natty in this day and age. To think otherwise is delusional.
@@Big12rocks The Utah fanbase is very good at delusion.
just dont have enough depth
@@Big12rocksso then do you think any Big 12 team has a chance? If no tell me how TCU got there. I know UGA killed them but they beat Michigan and made it there. My thing is….its possible
@@arningadI’m definitely not a UTAH fan
I have yet to see anyone with "Locked on" in their podcast name to be credible in anyway shape or form.
Spencer McLoughlin with Locked on Ducks does a fine job.
@@8d4o0c4 I will walk this back for him. You are right he doesn't interject his own assumptions and opinions.
Well, you haven't listed much then. Cause, I know for a fact that they're really credible! And it has been confirmed about the predecessor after Whittingham. Repeat, it has been confirmed!!!
@DaranTibbetts10721 LOL! 365 sports BIG12 is way more credible than any of these dudes, except maybe the Oregon guy. They at least have coaches and etc on their podcasts. Most of these "locked on" guys regurgitate social media hurt feelings and act like they represent an entire fan base while interviewing each other.
Click bait again on locked on big 12. Shame on you drake toll
This isn't Click bait at all. When Coach Whit retires, the next Coach has been named and the Local news here in Utah did a story on this, and even announced his salary. Nothing fake about this at all Dufus!!!
Utah has as good a chance as most... guess we'll just have to see what happens--thats why you play the game!
If NOT Utah, what team is capable of winning a Natty? Really bad take. I appreciate that Utah has a short history of football success but their trajectory is nothing but up. Good luck to the Big 12.
I remember when Utah was in the WAC, then Mtn west. Then pac. Now big 12. Man, pick a conference and stay there
What was Utah suppose to do? Stay in the Mountain West when the PAC came calling? Idiotic comment.
@@douglusty2756 they are already talking about leaving the big 12.
Take the best offer, what else would you do? Really I’m curious.
Utah upgraded conferences and then the Pac imploded. What are you talking about?
@@brentw0681that might have been true if OU and Texas hadn’t left.
Nothing is impossible, hard sure but not impossible
"running on empty" Utah is in the best position of any B12 team to compete for a natty even though it's very unlikely. And Utah has won more than any B12 program in the last decade. Oklahoma State is close but these takes are ridiculous. Drake is biased
Emphasis.... the last decade.... there is an ebb and flow to college athletics, schools like Alabama and others have been down for a decade and come back.... Utah has only been winning for about a decade, and there are other schools in the conference which have a deeper tradition of winning and they will cycle back on top.
Over the last 10 years the Utes have won 91 games. OSU has won 99. OSU had 7 bowl game wins in the last 10 years. The UTEs had 4. So… No. Utah has not won more than any B12 program in the last decade.
@@Jaromdecker mmm Not true. Oklahoma State has won 89 games the Utes have won 86. Though Oklahoma State played 6 more games in 2020 so the Utes have a higher win% stop lying.
@@aisaxonawiat6484 Utah has been winning ever since Urban took over in 2003 and it's been smooth sailing ever since, competitive in the 90s as well.
@@brentw0681 .... I wouldn't boast about having Urban at your school, every win under him could be called into question.... that's almost like boasting that Ted Bundy is a Utah alumni🤐
TCU welcomes the utes😊I rember spanking them multiple times in the MWeat conference😊They are a good program maybe three times the size of the Frogs but haven’t made the Playoff.The Frogs at least made it to the natty so maybe Utah will one day😎
Is it a challenge for Utah to win a national championship? Sure. But is it impossible. No. Utah can definitely push to be in the CFP and win games there. That's not a stretch. A challenge, yes, but not a stretch. And Utah will continue to be in the conversation to win Big 12 championships.
Hahahahahahahahaha
