It's an assumption on here, but it's not well supported and I have support to the contrary. And no, that dumb worse for them is directly correlated to better for byu stuff is nonsense. It's an idea I recommend avoiding for any purpose in life. It's an if-then statement that isn't backed by anything but bitterness, bias, blind hope, or just a quick assumption.
I find it funny that in your rant against Utah, you would not find it sad that, if true, the only way byu can look better is by Utah taking a step back. It implies that things being better for byu are out of their control and they just have to hope those superior to them will fall so they can enjoy their moment in the sun. I can't imagine thinking that way. Are you a byu fan, or just a Utah hater? I have to ask because those exist on here.
