The Utah Blockcast is a podcast for University of Utah Athletics fans. Focusing on Utah Football and Runnin' Utes basketball, the Blockcast is just what passionate Utah fans need. Hosted by KSL Sports' Steve Bartle and often co-hosted by Cameron Beck and Tyson Moll, particularly during football season, the Blockcast is a great place to discuss, argue, and stay current on Utah Athletics.
The fellas share their BIG TAKEAWAYS and little questions from week two of college football. Then dive into the offensive and defensive performance of the Utes against the Baylor Bears.
During the first 30 minutes of the episode, the gang discuss BIG takeaways from the first weekend of college football. That includes Colorado's win over a lousy TCU team, Pac-12 QB play, and the importance of good defense. Then the foursome hit on all things Florida-Utah, their MVP and takeaways from the offensive and defensive performances.
The guys dish on how incredible Utah Depth Chart Day is, picking a handful of things that stand out about Utah's depth chart. Then they go into talking about the Florida matchup, what it means, and what to look forward to on Thursday.
Andrew, Tyson, Cameron, and Steve give their opinions on the conference overall. What's the vibe around this season after everyone but WSU, OSU, Cal and Stanford dipped. They provide predictions on who they believe could be conference award winners this year, picking a Utah and a non-Utah candidate for most awards. They also go in on random over/under props for Utah this season including Cameron Rising passing yards and sacks among other things.
Still shaking off some of the podcast rust, the guys hit on the quarterback situation at Utah, as well as Sione Vaki making Bruce Feldman's Freak Athlete list, and the offensive line.
After a grueling media deal negotiation period, the Utah Blockcast has returned. The Pac-12 is dead, and we send our best to our Beaver friends. What led to this happening? Utah is headed to the Big 12 and it will be a lot of fun.
Long episode is looooong. Andrew McCullough, the Podfather himself, joins us in the Blounge! Cold open: Some good natured ribbing (slander?) of our guy Cody Barton (whom we all love, please don't kill us, Cody). We talk Dodd and that article he keeps writing, then the three players we're each most excited for in fall camp. We finish up with some fun Q&A. Last episode for a bit while we have some pod-ternaty leave as Steve prepares to welcome Baby Boy Bartle. We love you all! Thank you for li...
Cold open: Which Big Ten team is which month? Steve, Cam, and Tyson talk NFL Draft Combine results, and then make predictions for where Utah players will be drafted. Then we look forward to draft eligible players for the 2024 draft, and where we think they could end up drafted (or not).
Steve, Tyson, and Cam get together to discuss the ongoing Andy Ludwig saga, Notre Dame's toxic vibes, and then take some great questions for the back half. Had to mix this one four times because Audition kept crashing, so the audio isn't as crisp as we'd hoped. I've listened to it 4 times now, and Steve definitely said "penises."
Unfortunately we stopped recording minutes before the Ludwig news dropped, so listen to this episode with the image of sad Notre Dame's out-turned pockets in your mind. Steve, Tyson, and Cam chat about KISS, baby fighting, Super Bowl snacks, the importance of a great OC, and the progression of Utah's offense with so much returning production. Along the way we fix officiating and finally let the good guys (refs) win one.
Bob? Steve is back in the blounge with Cam and Tyson, and this week we talk a lot of hats, the bigger the better. Tom Brady is Vinny Testaverde with a defensive head coach. How can Tyler Huntley benefit from Jalen Hurts' success? Bob? Lastly, folks have been calling about Andy Ludwig. Guess who? Somewhere in there we also talk about brand value. BOB?!?!?!
Bartle is out, so Cam and Tyson welcomed Andrew McCullough and Porter Larsen to join them this week. With perfect hindsight, did Kyle Whittingham fire Brian Johnson too quickly? Micah Bernard is back! TYLER HUNTLEY, FOREVER QB1, IS A PRO BOWL QB1 NOW. And an in-depth Super Bowl discussion.
Tyson, Cam, and Steve are back at it this week to talk about how we're feeling with the Utah defense heading into 2023. But first - Polynesian Bowl shoutouts for 10 future Utes and a quick hitter on changing one play good or bad tbat would completely alter the season. Diving into the defense, there is a lot to like at defensive tackle, end, linebacker, cornerback, and safety on this unit.
Heading into 2023, the Blockcast is committed production... for the podcast, of course, how well or poorly the show is produced will be up for debate. Things will hopefully sound more professional moving forward. In this one Cam, Tyson, and Steve dish on how they're feelin' about each of Utah's offensive position groups at this point in time.
Well, after a week of sitting in the corner and sulking after the Rose Bowl loss, the gang is back to talk about things. Thankfully, the national championship game provided a nice distraction and some fun talking points.
After defeating USC, 47-24, in the Pac-12 Championship Game... which you can never say enough times... Utah is headed back to the Rose Bowl game for a January 2nd matchup against a mirror image of themselves. Tyson, Cam, and Steve spend the first 40 minutes discussing the season in totality; the difference the finish in Pac-12 CCG made on the overall feel of the season; hypothesize on the impact the last two years of football could have on the program; before spending the next 50 minutes discuss...
Cam, Tyson, and Steve got together Tuesday evening to record a show that was going to revolve around Utah's season and how pre-season expectations were met in the wildest of ways... And it turned into nothing but a Utah Signing Day preview!
Cam, Tyson, and Steve are back in the Blockcave. The three discuss the need for Skycam television, Dalton & CPIII's decisions, Good Kids Salt City, and give a top five list of players they are most grateful for this season and five they are most excited for next season.
Utah went back to back in the Pac-12 title game after absolutely crushing the Trojans, 47-24 on Friday. Tyson unfortunately was still in Vegas celebrating, so it's just Cam and Steve breaking down everything from this game.
Tyson, Cam, and Steve recap the wild weekend that gave Utah the right combination of wins to secure their trip to Las Vegas. Then preview the Pac-12 Championship Game against USC.
Tyson, Cam, and Steve are back at it to talk about Thanksgiving food and flush the Oregon game down the toilet... What happened in Oregon and what happened to ThiccBoi?

Cam, Tyson, and Steve get back to work after a much needed bye week. Lots of Oregon talk... some BYU... Start talking Utah football at the 18-minute mark. Is this team meeting expectations?
Have refs actually saved college football? Can Utah pooch punt kickoffs? Rice Eccles Stadium crowd. Cameron Rising, Dalton Kincaid, and the passing game, happy place. Defense, dark place.
Cam, Tyson, and Steve recap the Utah-UCLA game. They do their best to figure out why it's all the kicker's fault.
Schedules are tough but Tyson and Steve recorded 1/2 of the show Monday night, while Cam and Steve recorded the other 2/3 of the episode on Tuesday night.
None
Cam and Steve welcome Tyson Moll to the podcast. The three of them discuss Utah's offense, maybe the benefit of using receivers.
