At this point, I'll believe a "BYU will beat Utah" claim when I see it happen,

but not before. If I'm not mistaken, Bronco-led BYU has been favored 6 out of 9 times against Utah and only won 3 out of 9. That's a 50% win rate when everyone thinks they're the better team and a 0% win rate when everyone thinks Utah is the better team.

A big difference? Beating a middle to bad PAC12 team? Ummm....no.

BYU beating an Arizona school or Cal in Vegas would look and feel pretty good

Apples and Oranges: perhaps you forgot about BYU losing Hill & Mangum

It's why BYU would beat the Utes right now

John Bender

11/30/15 12:59pm

utah would probably still beat us this year. their defense is very solid

11/30/15 12:55pm

BYU would win with offense Utah is fielding right now

John Bender

11/30/15 12:58pm

doubt it. see mizzou. or michigan. they'd get just enough points.

11/30/15 1:00pm

Mizzou's defense is light years ahead of utah's.

Ad nauseum

11/30/15 1:15pm

not light years. mizzou is about 10 and utah is about 15.

11/30/15 1:18pm

Mizzou #9 in total d. Utah #41. Yes, light years

depends on the site you're looking at.

how did utah win 9 games with a bad offense and average defense?

11/30/15 1:30pm

Utah only beat 2 good teams when both were weakened

Mediocre offense, mediocre defense, good special teams, and lucky breaks. This

Mine straight from ncaa.com. Stop linking garbage sites.

Ad nauseum

11/30/15 1:45pm

safe to say Utah has played better offenses.

Utesplease

11/30/15 3:31pm

No need to provide a reason. Just because BYU would have an errant snap fly

11/30/15 1:05pm

Mediocre defense

Ad nauseum

11/30/15 1:14pm

This is as well as we've statistically done against P-5 teams...ever....

lol, this post is unreal.

They are bowl eligible because they played garbage teams non-conference. Dumb

Ad nauseum

12/1/15 12:28am

I don't know if this qualifies as garbage...

LOL. Really?

Exactly, you just made my point.

You just proved mine.

12/1/15 11:42pm

With arizona's schedule, yes I think they probably get to 6 wins.

After seeing what Missouri did to our defense I think saying we would shut down

Yep, it's almost irrelevant who has the better team entering the game.

I think U would beat us; my bro (big U fan) says opposite

11/30/15 3:25pm

I think its a toss up. However I think it is an advantageous matchup for BYU:
