I understand that. But now that the Rose is no longer an option, would it add meaning to play BYU in a bowl? Or no? I would think it would if things were reversed, at least it gives something to left to play for but maybe just to stung to care.

Do utah fans want to play BYU in the vegas bowl?

In fairness, if BYU was ranked #3 at some point, and then ended up in the Vegas

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.

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

I'm good with this

jhingman

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

Hopefully we both get what we want
