Break this down by geography. Everyone who works with or lives by a Ute is
going for the dumber option.

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
UberDeek

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?
Blue Cat
5/26/19 12:47am
You pointed out a schedule where we only beat one team with a winning record

He's saying that if BYU goes 10-2 and is still only ranked in the 20-25 range,

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.
Lip Gallagher

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.

And for BYU it would mean the Hawaii bowl

It would depend on other conferences, and how well Utah does. 10-2 would give
