BYU matched up before injuries. I don’t understand this. Utah was down quite a few starters and contributors going into the game last year. Injuries are a part of football. Utah has more quality depth than BYU.

Where I hope BYU has an advantage is that Utah hasn’t looked great in their openers recently. Throw in a new OC again, the emotional aspect of the game, maybe Utah makes mistakes that BYU actually capitalize on, unlike a few years ago.
