Why does it matter that we don't play them anymore?
It's their Super Bowl.
Let me think further into irrelevance in their P5 conference and take away their Super Bowl and you'll see the fanbase dwindle.
I'm convinced that most of Utah's fans only cheer for the school because they hate the Church.

Maybe not playing the Yewts isn't such a bad idea

I agree. The hiatus hurts them way more than it hurts us.

I'm sure a win over byu right now would mean more to

Extend the hiatus for another couple years and they would be begging to play us

whys that?

Starved for meaningful wins - No better victory than beating BYU
Jersey hunter
9/23/14 8:40am
a win over byu is pretty meaningless

yeah right - liar!

I know plenty of Yewtah fans who cared more about the BYU win than...

I agree. Rivalry games are always one of the most important games of the year
Utesplease
9/23/14 9:14am
Hard to say because Utah always gets so amped for the game

Wasn't last year's game the one time they got on national television?

If they keep winning

Sure, but they won't keep winning.

9/23/14 8:32am
Then why does it matter?

Kyle van noy said utah was their super bowl...

Agreed. Winning 8 > games in the PAC12 does get you attention. However, since
newey-west
9/23/14 8:49am
We won 8 games our first year
Utesplease
9/23/14 8:54am
Guess I don't follow your team very closely. Points still remains

9/23/14 8:57am
Misleading. yew didn't win 8 conf. games. USC was ineligble for postseason play.

beating byu during the last 2 losing seasons got us next to no attention
Utesplease
9/23/14 8:35am
Yeah, because BYU wasn't great. But it helped fans during the season.

Nobody watched the Utah vs Stanford game because it was on the PAC12 network.
newey-west
9/23/14 8:44am
But it was news.
CosmoK
9/23/14 8:57am
It was definitely meaningful
newey-west
9/23/14 9:01am
Obviously a losing season with a rivalry w is better than one without
Utesplease
9/23/14 8:58am
False--Utah's highest rated game last year was against BYU.
newey-west
9/23/14 8:40am
Did BYU really have 5 games rated higher than any Utah game?
wapiti
9/23/14 9:05am
Yes (ratings details included)
newey-west
9/23/14 9:08am
yeah, you don't get games on good channels much during losing seasons
Utesplease
9/23/14 9:07am
I already agreed that winning makes a difference.
newey-west
9/23/14 9:10am
If you played and beat BYU next week you would get lots of attention
wapiti
9/23/14 9:04am
I.e. would it mean anything
Utesplease
9/23/14 9:16am
I really don't think either team needs the other

If BYU were playing a Big 12 schedule, BYU fans would forget about the Utah game

I'm forgetting about it already

Sorry, this is ridiculous

I'm no Yewt, but this is a strange comment.

Not playing the rivalry hurts the relevance and national attention of both.
