They would be a miserable failure if there wasn’t

A talent gap with all of the advantages. Reality of college football. Doesn’t make them particularly impressive. Nearly impossible to get a kid with legit p5 offers to play anywhere but a p5. The college football power brokers have finally got the sport where they want it. Not nearly as fun anymore

But its to a rival which hurts more.

We did get waxed in the end but that game

52-21 doesn't register as "blown off the field" in your mind?

The games will be close because it's a rivalry, the talent gap is huge.

Rivalry games are always close not just in this rivalry. They have been the more

Top 15? Dude, why would you think they are top 15? Beating an unranked USC?

Hey BYU was up to #20

No, I'm right.

Sadly I can't find anything to disagree with there. The talent gap is very real

The talent gap wasn’t the issue in 2004. It was Urban. Coaching is EVERYTHING in

And we don't have it at the top. Although, I think Grimes has the talent.

You’re definitely 5150. So there’s a talent gap or they’re just clicking?

No. The previous Utah team almost lost to Northern Illinois
