Utah vs Colorado

Smoke Monster

11/17/14 7:34pm

Yep, Colorado is doing Utah a huge favor there. It is a big game for the Utes

thecelloguy

11/17/14 8:50pm

But many of those teams are fighting for a playoff position.

Virginia Ute

11/17/14 4:18pm

but, but,but...you don't know what you're talking about

macaroni

11/17/14 6:49pm

not really though. those games may actually hurt these "playoff" contenders SOS

yfootball

11/18/14 10:25am

That's because the rest of the schedule is a beast. Comparing BYU to the SEC?

crookedUTE

11/17/14 7:23pm

the point is that EVERYONE does it. you do realize that you guys played idaho

macaroni

11/17/14 8:22pm

Fair enough

crookedUTE

11/17/14 8:26pm

no, that wasn't my point.

Virginia Ute

11/18/14 3:03am

Other than the Ute security vs. #westconcourseturd I don't believe there is.

Epileptic Beagle

11/17/14 4:16pm

That is a very meaningful and intriguing matchup, so I have to disagree with you

Virginia Ute

11/17/14 4:36pm

Western Carolina @ Alabama

kccougar

11/17/14 4:16pm

That game is very meaningful.

Virginia Ute

11/17/14 4:19pm

I'm not sure we have the same definition of "meaningful"

Still Questing

11/17/14 4:28pm

Meaningful, as in the game results have any actual bearing on the CFB landscape,

Virginia Ute

11/17/14 4:34pm

So the Alabama / Western Carolina game is more meaningful than MWC title game?

Still Questing

11/17/14 4:35pm

Uh, what? I think you've done a misread there.

Virginia Ute

11/17/14 4:37pm

I'm saying the impact of Alabama losing would be more meaningful than which MWC

Still Questing

11/17/14 4:41pm

It's very meaningful. Would be biggest upset in history if Bama were to lose.

Virginia Ute

11/17/14 4:44pm

I agree, it's too bad our rival joined the dark side and scheduled teams

Blusox

11/18/14 7:50am

Well, then, by your definition, the Utah-Zona game is meaningless.

Are you trying to downgrade BYU playing an opponent from SEC country?

That game is very meaningful

BYU became bowl eligible w/ UNLV win.

That is correct. my bad. They will assure a winning record with this win

You are trying to be mean. Don't lie. It's not nice. Also, neither is being mean

benny1982

11/17/14 4:30pm

Haha. Fair enough. I did wonder about that question, though.

Virginia Ute

11/17/14 4:32pm

As to your question, there may not be any that mean less, but there are a ton

benny1982

11/17/14 4:33pm

So then the answer to my question would be 'no' ?

Virginia Ute

11/17/14 4:35pm

You already knew that, so I was just giving your question some context.

benny1982

11/17/14 4:37pm

So when you say "a ton" of games, do you mean like 1 or 2? Could I get a list?

Virginia Ute

11/17/14 4:43pm

I started to make that list. Any two teams that are either ineligible for a

AndyDwyer

11/17/14 4:44pm

Your list kinda sucked.

Virginia Ute

11/17/14 4:47pm

You win. There are plenty of games that are equally as meaningless,

AndyDwyer

11/17/14 5:01pm

Ha. I'm not playing your stupid game, VU.

benny1982

You big meanie.

lightmann

just like most games.

Jeremy

11/17/14 4:34pm

Every game Utah plays is less meaningful to me

HeismanTy

11/17/14 4:38pm

The fact that you say that makes it not true.

Virginia Ute

11/17/14 4:40pm

please explain to me how I care more about any game Utah plays in?

HeismanTy

11/17/14 4:45pm

the reality is I don't, but you seem to care at least somewhat about this game
