games. Down to the wire. Last play. Most games with top 25 relevance and South division relevance, and a few with direct CFP implications.

Love how Furlong is writing articles about the rich Utah-USC tradition/rivalry

To USC, Utah isn't any different than ASU or UA.

Jeffacka

12/1/22 12:36pm

Not sure I agree with that

I'mBatman

12/1/22 12:40pm

They weren’t the best team in the pac south this year…

HFF

12/1/22 12:42pm

Rivals make an effort to schedule each other through conference realignment

RoyalCoug99

12/1/22 12:43pm

This is a silly take. SC knows every year if they have Conf. Champ hopes it

Ute_Truther

How Ute of you.

OldFogey

12/1/22 2:03pm

You saying it doesn't? Appearances 4 of the last 5 years, wrecked 4 hopefull's

I never want to recognize that Utah is good but I do know that whit needs to

Boring

I hate to say I told you so but...oh heck no I don't, I told you so.

LOL it goes through SLC, pending a miraculous comeback in Corvallis

Doesn't matter what you think, or what actual results are

Carnac

12/1/22 12:44pm

USC's rivalries and traditions are much deeper than 5 years.

Jeffacka

12/1/22 12:46pm

So BYU is also USC's rival for beating them the last two games?

WJCougar

12/1/22 12:47pm

They do.

Jeffacka

12/1/22 12:50pm

I thought there was no more Pac 12 South?

ProvoSpain

12/1/22 5:50pm

This is false..

Ute_Truther

12/1/22 12:47pm

I never had any professors say a word about Utah.

Jeffacka

12/1/22 12:49pm

Hahaha okay that’s not a measuring stick but funny none the less

Prdub83

12/1/22 1:07pm

If you'd gone to USC, you see how proud they are of traditions.

Jeffacka

12/1/22 2:36pm

I’m not talking about the fans

I'mBatman

12/1/22 6:29pm

UCLA and Notre Dame are always seen as the big games.

Jeffacka

12/1/22 6:35pm

Pretty sure this proves I was right on how usc players view Utah

I'mBatman

12/3/22 11:16am

He's been doing that all season

12/3/22 11:29am

I think that proves me right actually and if you still need proof there's this..

WJCougar

12/1/22 12:49pm

USC sees Utah the same way you and I see Wyoming

TFL was absolutely right man. . .

Your name is Zoobieman....nobody can take your name serious.

The most exhilarating games are always found by research

Doogal McCougar

12/1/22 12:48pm

I remember some of USC's most disappointing teams beating Utah.

Jeffacka

12/1/22 12:49pm

Yep. Agreed. The rich talent of USC shows up when there's a #3 or a #10 next to Utah

TFL

12/1/22 12:55pm

UCLA and Notre Dame are always more anticipated than Utah.

Jeffacka

12/1/22 12:57pm

In general, as long time rivals, yes. In a CFP race like this year...Utah was always the biggest threat. Tomorrow night

TFL

12/1/22 1:04pm

True, but not because its against Utah--its because it has CFP implications

kansascougar

12/1/22 1:10pm

Lol. Just the opposite. The only reason why tomorrow is so relevant is because of Utah.

TFL

12/1/22 1:36pm

Whatever you say Mr. Furlong.

Armchaircoug

12/1/22 2:52pm

The game would be just as big if they were playing UW or Oregon.

Jeffacka

12/1/22 2:37pm

Agreed. We all get that. Just like UO and Utah last year. Or 2019. Both w/o USC. But Utah is there for a reason

TFL

12/1/22 4:21pm

There's been some fun games over the last 10 years; but USC won't think about

moknowssports

12/1/22 2:43pm

Helton wasn't really a knee jerk hire. It was the right hire at the time.

Jeffacka

12/1/22 4:28pm

I bet USC will only play OOO games in their timezone moving forward

CougarCanuck76

12/1/22 1:02pm

Other than the ND game, that's probably true.

Jeffacka

12/1/22 2:38pm

The fact is... Utah has no tradition on their own other than to latch onto the coattails of other programs...

Coug

12/1/22 1:04pm

The only Tradition that matters is the fact we traditionally beat byu like a bad

Ute_Truther

12/1/22 1:36pm

Signed on today, Just to drop that little nugget!🤣🤣🤣

Northern Blue

12/1/22 1:41pm

I mean yeah, what else matters.

Ute_Truther

12/1/22 1:48pm

Can someone tell me how long it has been since Ute football beat BYU?

zia cougar

12/1/22 2:08pm

It's been years.

Jeffacka

12/1/22 2:41pm

Literally!

Armchaircoug

12/1/22 2:54pm

Except for when you don't.

Jeffacka

12/1/22 2:39pm

Um ouch?

Ute_Truther

12/3/22 8:45am

There is always some Ute fan like you...

WJCougar

12/1/22 3:03pm

62-35-4 = cummulative football series tradition. Facts aren't always fun.

I'm in SoCal. All my neighbors are USC fans. They have 3 rivals. 1 Notre Dame...

psychogrape

12/1/22 5:36pm

Interesting, I got close family friends in LA and they are totally

Prdub83

12/1/22 7:13pm

It's because over the last few years, Utah's the only team in the Pac12 south...

psychogrape

12/1/22 11:03pm

I think they don't like how Utah beats them up every time they play. Google

ALUF 1990

12/2/22 5:07am

I'll admit, Utah usually has a pretty salty defense; but after googling...

psychogrape

12/2/22 9:36am

Utah's Polys are rough on opposing teams. PAC teams have been talking

ALUF 1990

12/2/22 10:09am

Clearly he and his neighbors are not friends with your family. lol
