But, if you mean the rest of the entire sports nation that is giving Utah full credit like they would for BYU or any other team in that exact situation then one must surmise that Utah beat a team that totally and completely embarrassed the crap out of BYU.

Of course, if the same scenario happened in reverse to BYU/Utah... you can bet that everyone on this site and the entire nation would be jumping all over Utah (as they should and I seriously doubt you would be defending the Utes), and the ONLY one writing a post like this would be a zealot Ute...

imho
