None of those were necessarily weak opponents either

so if the majority are .500 or better when they played Utah, this isn't an easy schedule by any stretch.

In a conference where there is a lot of parity, 9-games and a lot of tough road venues, you're going to see a 4-5, 5-4 type teams. Since you're focusing on Utah wins, you add another loss to the column. You're going to end up with fewer teams with "winning" seasons...but no gimmes.

Did you know: this season BYU currently has more wins over P5 teams than Utah has.

9/12/19 5:52am

The new BYU thing is to claim their not P5 to own Utah

hereforlaughs

9/12/19 9:37am

Did you know that BYU has lost to Utah every year during that same timespan?

9/12/19 6:18am

I did. I did know that.

9/12/19 6:31am

I agree with your point, but the BYU/ute losses sting.

This dude's a genius. Nobody knew that.

3 is more accurate because BYU is p5

Croweater

BYU has 3 since they've been Indy

hereforlaughs

9/12/19 9:32am

This is true. We know the utes have been better. But they're not great either

Sure it's never BYU's fault

is this a debate about if Utah or BYU is better? ...I think the last 9 years

Man, Utah is one pathetic loser.

No, you are the pathetic loser

If I was counting that stat, I would’ve stated that stat.

Why would you count that type of stat?

File this under "irrelevant factoids that make us feel better" and I'm glad
