Thanks to ESPN paying off the Pac to pit Utah against BYU in the Vegas Bowl

They ESPN just cared about selling the tickets and advertising for the bowl game. With the highest rsting of non NY6 and non playoff the got what they paid for.

Utah limped down the strech last year after losing Booker, Covey, Scott, and their starting TEs. It was BYUs best opportunity last year to beat Utah than this year.

Utah has started 3-0 more times in the last three seasons, than BYU has in the last 15 seasons.

You could ignore the Utah stuff. 1st word was Utah, easy enough for you to pass.

Exactly which is why we shouldn't be comparing an indy schedule to it.

Yeah, It has a lot to do with them being in a conference they can start off

And with many of those games at home.

This is a huge part of it as well IMHO

The perk of being in a P5 conf. Easy teams to work out the kinks

Yep -- I'll take the tough games.

Random Walk

I'd rather be 3-0, in the top25, and in a P5.

I meant that I'd rather have the tough games than be independent with easy games

And Utah's easiest games are in September. Your point?

Are you sure? I'm gonna need some time to research further. Please stand by.

Its easier to win against Wagner, Savana St, ISU, and USU

Upanddown

9/26/16 10:22am
