Utah came with the rush, nice job by Anthony Brown to step up and get rid of it, but Utah is getting off the field on third down to open the game.
Nicely done. – 8:30 PM

Very rough estimate: There are 35,000 people here. Of the 35K, has to be 20-25,000 Utah fans. – 7:58 PM

Love the feeling of anticipation before a big game. How about the emotional turmoil our guys have faced in the last 2 yrs? Who could forget the history of critical transfers between the squads? Can the local boys beat the vaunted team in green?
