1. In the only game that matters when it comes to rivalry smack Utah has bested BYU three years in a row.
2. Utah is part of a conference that BYU could only dream of joining, and the Big12 ain't gonna be punching your ticket any time soon.
3. Even if you run the table this season you will miss the playoffs by a large margin. What's there to play for in the land of independence?
4. At least you have basketball to fall back on. Oh wait, Coach K has restored the U to their rightful place upon the top of the hill. Not only has BYU basketball lost its luster, but they've been relegated to high school gyms complete with pull out bleachers.
5. The honor code does not make you better, just sillier. No earings? Lord almighty.
