| Jim Clark married a supermodel 40 years his junior. "Did I mention I'm wealthy?" |
 |
| "Say what you want about my sweater. I invented Pong, bitches." |
 |
| Gee. This dude turns up freaking everywhere. |

| UW undergrad, UU Law School. Bundy is just a Pac-12 guy. |

Utah is a program that we really must get to know better since they are our new conference "travel partner" which is a term that sort of sounds like a 1980s code word for same-sex life partner but which actually means a manufactured rival. You see, when the Pac-10 expanded Larry Scott looked at CU and U of U and said, "You two are both in the mountain time zone and like snow. You must really want to beat each other's ass! Also, I heard that Utes used to try to kill Buffaloes and vice versa or something." And thusly a rivalry was born.
So fine. I can never loath a team like I did (DO!) Nebraska but I'm up for fostering a new rivalry. Maybe this one will be a friendly rivalry. Winner gets first tracks!
And Utah has been incredibly successful in recent years. Of course they were in the Mountain West Conference but whatever. They now are playing with the big boys and have done reasonably well going 5-5 so far in the Pac-12. I can't remember what the Buffs' record is.
The only other thing I know about the Utah football team is that their coach's name is Kyle Whittingham which is the whitest name in America.
 |
| "It's true, I'm white." |
The time is now, the place is Utah and the victims are our new friendly rivals, the Utes! Time to stake our claim to Mountain Time Zone superiority. Let's do this Buffs!
And that's how I'd deliver the pre-game locker room pep talk. I think it would be pretty effective.

| I have no idea why their mascot wears a giant chicken head. |
