You guys should realize who you are. You wouldnt have this problem in the future

Yep, that's made this season more bearable for me.

I should have expected to end up in the vegas bowl after a 6-0 start?

Utesplease

11/26/15 10:25am

Well kinda. You should've looked into why you were 6-0

What more would we be playing for? Bragging rights?

Utesplease

11/26/15 10:18am

Of course not. They want to go go a better bowl than Las Vegas

No. We wouldn't care to play them if we were on a 4 game winning streak.

I would venture to say that almost none of them would want it

One of my friends told me he would rather play a team from a conference

Sounds like a well-informed, intelligent person. You might need to reconsider

Yeah, I guess 'friend' is generous. He sits by me at work.

Bowl games in Pac12 better than Vegas:

Meh. Other than NY6, bowls are all pretty lame.

CosmoK

11/25/15 3:36pm

I agree. They are lame. But there is more money & prestige in the other bowls.

San Diego > Vegas in December, but I don't want Yewts messing with our

I thought they were able to keep half

Of course we'd rather go to a better bowl. The Vegas Bowl means losing to Colo.

Cause it happens with surprising regularity?

basman

Assume Utah can go to Vegas with a win over Colorado. Change anything?

CosmoK

11/25/15 3:34pm

Utah's bowl for having a 9-3 regular season should be better than Vegas.

Ute in DC

11/25/15 3:39pm

A rational thought, though I disagree.

CosmoK

11/25/15 3:44pm

Penn State in a bowl game? Yes, please.

Ute in DC

11/25/15 3:49pm

losing out on tiebreakers will hurt them

icecougar

11/25/15 7:28pm

And a game against BYU in bowl season doesn't do much for Utah.

RaggaeCoug

11/25/15 4:13pm

Didn't the yewts get destroyed by Boise State last time they played in vegas?

OliverGranger

11/25/15 6:33pm

No, the last time Utah played in Vegas, the Utes defeated Colorado State 45-10.

Ute in DC

11/26/15 7:28am

What they don't want is BYU fans feeling superior. BYU fans are the same way.

CosmoK

11/25/15 3:33pm

I don't want to play Utah. KW owns Bronco.

Kerbouchard

11/25/15 3:34pm

Id rather play a b1g team. You cant blame Utah fans for being disappointed with

Utesplease

11/25/15 4:31pm

Yup- can't blame 'em

cheezedawg

11/25/15 4:39pm

Why would they? Some still hope for NY6 bowl.

Absolutely not and here's the easy answer

Medute

11/25/15 5:04pm

I'm good with this

jhingman

11/25/15 5:15pm

completely false.

OliverGranger

11/25/15 6:36pm

You said "false" and then agreed with me

Medute

11/25/15 9:09pm

nearly everyone outside of SLC knew the yewts were overrated at #3...

icecougar

11/25/15 7:27pm

Hopefully we both get what we want
