I bet there's some yewt fans who have made a ton of money on the rivalry the
last 7 years. It blows my mind that we're actually favored in this game, AGAIN. I would much, much prefer the underdog role.

.11% chance of an undefeated season!

Pretty common, WISC is highest and has a 4% chance, LSU 0.3%, BSU 0.1

Does this take injuries into account? For example, Key? Also, it is evident how

No way Utah only wins 3 games. We're just not that fortunate

No but it would make Utah sports radio SO much more tolerable

I'll take 10-3, but no way Utah goes 3-9, they are at least a 7-5 team

BYU 9-4; Utah 7-5.

Its interesting to see how they view us against other teams

I don't think 2 losses gets us to NY6. Not with our schedule, as good as it is.

What if our two losses come against LSU and Wisconsin, and both those teams...

The nice thing is we play both teams at the beginning of the season

Here's to hoping!! The stars aligned in '84 and they could align again someday...why not this year?

BYU could win 10 but I'd bet heavily Utah wins more than 3

ESPN is not predicting a 3 win Utah team, They're predicting a 5 win team

NY6 would only be possible with 1 loss, and it would have to be to UW or LSU.

The percentage is calculated off of FPI -- so any team we have an advantage over means we are ranked higher in their FPI

How are Utah's chances against WSU so low? Or Arizona? Makes no sense to me.
GOR

It's based off of FPI which is ESPNs predictive model

Thanks. I'm surprised Utah doesn't come out on top in those. But I don't follow

10-3 is a reasonable expectation for year 2 of the Sitake era

We would have to be 12-1 at worst to be considered for NY6.

Whittingham will get fired with that record

If that happens, Utah will no longer be a long-term concern. Other coaches don't

Utah would be so incredibly stupid to let him go

Makes no sense. They are ranked as the 5th best team in the PAC12

It's their algorithm that's making the prediction, not the media

Never underestimate Utah. They'll knock off one of the big dogs of the P10.

BYU makes a NY6 if they go undefeated. That's the only way I see it happening.
