Utah will be lucky to win 7 games. 6 is looking more possible at this point, but Utah always looks good going into the conference schedule so the wheels could come off in spectacular fashion.

I am trying to figure out what statement Utah will need to make. As I said before, if Utah wins out, it will have made any statement needed. Utah beating a bad Michigan team in 2008 didn't hurt them. It helped them for the time being, but the rest of the schedule made the difference, as would the remainder of this schedule.
