I ventured over to see what our brethren in red are saying
As expected, a few reasonable takes buried under nonsense (the Utah State South comment makes no sense — one is a public agricultural school, one is a private religious school)

"Devil’s advocate time:
We come out cold (see Navy) with one game under our belt to their 9. We get our [yewts] handed to us, which propels them to the playoff and we look like a bunch of dumb[yewts] because we just lost to Utah State South."

"BYU will have played 9 games this season by nov 28. Utah will have played one, and that's IF we play this weekend. That is a huge advantage for them — especially when you consider everything Utah is replacing.
Utah is much better than any team they’ve played, but there are a ton of kinks that will need to be worked out for Utah. Trying to work those out versus a team that is rolling and has 9 games under their belt is a tough ask."

"You “I don’t want to play BYU” people are WEAK. Look, we want to play BYU. Why?
IF Utah beats USC, then we will be ranked. To be ranked 20-ish with a game vs a top 10 team that sucks and you will roll? Yes please. Then Utah is 2-0 and suddenly a top 15, possibly top 10 team. We would roll our last two games and finish the year 4-0.
What happens then? Who knows. But we’d be a top 10 team and have so many options open. Maybe we get Oregon again. Maybe we get a NY6 Bowl. But we get recognition.
AND we’d head into the 2021 season ranked as a top 15, top 10 team returning EVERYBODY. We’d be the belle of the ball in the south.
Any chance you have to beat a top 10 team, especailly when it is such a weak one AND especially when it’s those clowns, you take it and smash them.
Goodness you people."
