POLL: If you had to pick between BYU finishing 10-2 with a loss to Utah but end ranked between 20-25, or Finish 7-5 with a win over Utah and unranked?

It’s hard, if there wasn’t such a long streak going

I think a 10-win season despite a loss to Utah would do better for both

I wouldn’t trade more than one win vs any team over a single win vs Utah

Sorry but I’m not trading 3 wins for a Utah win. That’s both sad and pathetic

It’s trading 4 other wins for a win over Utah. Crazy talk.

10-2 being ranked in the 20-25 range means we didn’t win a meaningful game.

Being 10-2 means we won 10 meaningful games

Complaining about beating USC, Tennessee, and Boise State is silly

We are in a bad spot if we think beating 3 to 4 win P5s is a big deal.

USC is a blueblood and Tennessee is the next tier

I guess the point is 10-2 gets you much better than ranked 20-25, unless our

In the 10-2 situation does Utah finish ranked higher than us or are they 7-5

Going 10-2 with a loss to Utah means BYU goes 2-1 against USC, UW, and Tennessee
ataylor
5/25/19 11:46pm
At least 2-1, rather. Could mean beating all three of those teams and losing to
ataylor
5/25/19 11:47pm
That means 2-1 against Tennessee, USC and Washington. I'll take it

Good point.

If BYU is 10-2 we'd better be ranked higher than #20. BYU ain't UCF. Pollsters

That was my thought. 10-2 would put us in the 12-15 range. It would take some

We absolutely could be ranked in this range

Well, I'm not a uofu fan, so I don't automatically believe all of our opponents

Wow. Strange response. Who mentioned anything about belief?

You pointed out a schedule where we only beat one team with a winning record

It's very unlikely. 10-11 win G5 teams finish 20-25 and they have much

I might agree EXCEPT for the fact they’ve beat us 9 straight. That’s embarrassin

Wins over Utah >>>> everything else. Id take 5-7 if we beat Utah

This is why all of us local fans care so much about the Utah game.

I was going to choose option #1, but since #2 is more likely I chose reality

Is it though? Beating Utah should be #1 priority over everything

Have to beat Utah and reestablish local dominance.

Getting one win in almost a decade doesn't "reestablish" anything.

Definitely helps with recruiting though

Not any more than a 10 win season

Definitely? No, not definitely. More like tiny possibility but mostly no.

&-5 and break the streak. Then go undefeated next year.

Finishing a season ranked will help our program a lot more than one win vs Utah

Utes would take the 10 two and lose to BYU. That would mean Rose Bowl.
