I haven’t argued BYU is the better program than Utah in years, because obviously it’s not the case.
Still doesn’t change the fact that Utah isn’t a top 10 team. Believe it or not the world doesn’t exist in a binary where your team is either elite or awful. Utah is a great top 20 team, but not elite top 10 status. BYU is mediocre, and has regressed under Kalani.
