Utes fans plan to distribute Alex Smith heads on Sep 3 to "haunt" Harbaugh

Submitted by unWavering on

According to a Utes sportswriter, Utah fans are planning to distribute Alex Smith heads around the stadium for the game. 

Word on the street is Alex Smith heads will be randomly distributed throughout RES. Welcome to Utah, Harbaugh.

I'm unclear as to what the dig is supposed to be - Harbaugh is widely credited with turning Alex Smith's career around. Perhaps they are trying to overwhelm Harbaugh with examples of his good coaching? 

At any rate, this does make me want to see the Utes go down more than I already did.  They seem pretty dismissive of Michigan as a whole (which I can't blame them for given our last couple of meetings).

If they want to haunt Harbaugh, they need to have Bo heads yelling at him for being 10 minutes late to his frist team meeting in 1982. 

Nothing else is going to do it.

Well . . . maybe a few Arizona State players on steroids, but nothing besides that.

Don't we wish we had even a serviceable backup qb, like Smith is/was? Since it appears to the nation we don't have even one qb. I don't know the full meaning behind it. I think we are overthinking and analyzing. It's supposed to be fun, guys. We're having fun!

It's clever. It's what college football is all about. I love it. This doesn't bunch my panties and doesn't add fuel to my fire.

It really isn't clever though. It would be much more clever if Smith was a great qb before harbaugh but after harbaugh he sucked. Instead it is the opposite. Saying anything about alex smith is pretty much a compliment to harbaugh.

They realize he fixed him and made him into what he is today right? Until Harbaugh, Smith was a huge bust. Coached by none other than Meyer.

Smith was great in college under Urban.

He was just not good again until working under Harbaugh.

Also, NFL good >= college great, so Smith's career supports the idea that Harbaugh is >= Urban with QBs. Given OSU's recent plug-and-play success, that's something to be happy about.
