The last time we beat Utah by more than a touchdown was 1996.

I think that beyond just losing to them, they also have the advantage of margin of victory. As long as we do not beat them by a multiple score margin, we will continue to be seen as the lesser program in the state

Clearly BamaCoug does not live in Utah. Totally understand his mindset.

Utah is for sure the more important game to win. It really is ok to admit. It's not little brother to

Little brother behavior is more like the kind of obsessive hatred that leads you

Honestly, the worm will turn. BYU had the 80's, Utah has had the last 6 years,

Completely different dynamics. Both schools were in the WAC back then

Realistic expectations based on the past 6 years tells me

And the difference in those games was line play, where Utah has beaten BYU badly in local recruiting.

Utah has had most of the last 2 decades.

For in-state recruiting, the Utah game is more important

for national cache and name recognition an LSU win is way bigger than Utah.

When you live in SEC country, getting a win over one of their "big boys"

The Utes still bring up beating Bama in 08

Umm... You don't see a difference between Utah beating Alabama in the freaking Sugar Bowl

LiveCoug

5/26/17 12:17pm

I deny the premise that it is a zero sum option

2FarGone

5/26/17 12:21pm

Well, obviously.

LiveCoug

That sugar bowl was meaningless to Bama. They just lost to Florida and a chance

Which sounds better to the casual college football fan?

I live in Utah and I'd prefer a guaranteed win against LSU

Belboz

I'd take the LSU win in a heartbeat

Cougforgood

5/26/17 12:35pm

For those that want BYU to only recruit in Utah, I can see your point.

I had a nightmare last night that we lost to Utah again and were within a few

Just win baby

Don't forget that the win over LSU will be at an NFL stadium in Texas on ESPN

If we beat LSU and lose to Utah, they will call it a fluke and we would lose all

There is no "right" answer, it's just a matter of perception... The country will praise a win over LSU more
