Numbers likely swap if they played 3 of 4 on the road and we played at home.

I think we played very well against UCLA. And still lost. Not sure that we

Yeah but Michigan would have kicked Utah's butt any game after that first game

Do you disagree? Do you think Utah would win that matchup after week 1?

One thing matters. Utah beat them.

One of us is foolish enough to believe that W/L tells the whole story. Got it.

I have data. BYU never lost at home. Not once. Never.

If ignoring the history of sport makes you feel better. Go ahead. Ignore it.

If ignoring the actual W/L records make you feel better, good on ya, bud.

I didn't. I simply acknowledged the reality of home field advantage.

Context makes you feel better. It doesn't get you a W. Which is what matters.
