Here's what Utah football fans don't get about the significance of this week...

BobLoblaw

9/17/21 12:49pm

Their fun decade of superiority is over and they know it

daki

9/17/21 12:51pm

I don't think they "know" it...for all the reasons that they can't view BYU with

moknowssports

9/17/21 2:04pm

most of them don't even realize their team was 3-2 last year

Avery

9/17/21 3:42pm

I would Add 4 out of the last five games played we had the game & blew it.

U2wearblue

9/17/21 3:59pm

Also, we can brag for three years.

oldrugger

9/17/21 5:26pm

Love the optimism but it will be years before we beat them again. At least 3.

All-American

9/17/21 12:52pm

Nah, I don’t think we lose to them in that time

zerome4sooners

9/17/21 1:32pm

only in football. and we can still beat them at that in the rankings!

Pangare

9/17/21 4:16pm

I would bet that we play them in a bowl game before then. Just the way things

jcase16byu

ESPN wouldn't want it any other way.

Little Mac

It’s about trajectories- right now BYU is shooting to the moon!!

SouthernBlueBlood

Oh, I think they get it. And they are going to have to think about it and cry for 3 years.

The biggest thing to me was that it didn’t take an all time great qb to win. We

We’d have smoked them last year with Zach

Look, you've got scoreboard right now. But until it becomes a plural this is just as likely to be a radar blip...

As long as both teams are in P5 conferences, by far the most probable outcome is

shoganai

9/17/21 12:59pm

I agree with this. And that would be a welcome change.

BobLoblaw

9/17/21 1:02pm

Do you consider Utah's 1988 win a blip or a momentum turner?

Captain Stubing

9/17/21 1:06pm

Definitely a blip. Not sustainable & we changed head coach a year later. McBride's 93 win in Provo was a turning point.

Tokolosh

9/17/21 1:12pm

Agree 1988 was a blip. Also agree it is too early to tell if this BYU win is...

Captain Stubing

9/17/21 3:23pm

Your run is over and that's all that matters. You should be wringing your hands over San Diego St.,

BlueFever

9/17/21 5:04pm

Blip city, are you kidding? In '89 we hung 70 on them...7 TD's in the 1st half!

NOCAL_YFAN

9/17/21 4:33pm

That's a lot easier to say after missing last year's game as well, which you...

Sock Gnome

9/17/21 1:13pm

Ifs & buts... or something like that. Fact is we didn't play and perhaps not losing to Utah to start the year...

Tokolosh

9/17/21 1:16pm

Yeah, it's inconsequential that 9 guys from last year's team in are in the NFL.

Sock Gnome

9/17/21 1:19pm

We didnt actually win in 2020 but we had the better team and the buzz around it.

SLIVER

9/17/21 1:23pm

You may be right, but...

Dr. Martin Bamford

9/17/21 1:27pm

It's not solely about the head-to-head matchup. Ute fans have been holding their

daki

9/17/21 1:30pm

that's accurate

wilsdad

9/17/21 2:31pm

2020 should be counted as a probable win. The utes were not up to the task then and they and their fans know it.

Ty Jordan was a special talent. I don’t think

TFL

9/17/21 4:14pm

UU with Ty Jordan lost to worse teams than BYU in 2020.

Little Mac

9/17/21 4:23pm

Not really. It takes a few games to find an identity and for a line and RB

TFL

9/17/21 4:33pm

Wasn’t UU scheduled to play BYU in week 1 in 2020?

Little Mac

9/17/21 5:05pm

Yes. And what did BYU do week 1? Obliterate Navy

palangi

9/17/21 5:53pm

Well...it depends. I don't think Utah was a mess

TFL

9/17/21 5:57pm

RE: Well...it depends. I don't think Utah was a mess

The_Cuss

9/17/21 6:00pm

Excuses for what? Not giving BYU a hypothetical 2020 win? Weird.

TFL

9/17/21 6:03pm

As opposed to giving UU a win in 2021 if Ty Jordan was playing?

Little Mac

9/17/21 7:10pm

Exactly, 2021 question: Is it a huge rebuild or is it more of a reload…

The_Cuss

9/17/21 11:05pm

Exactly. Claiming a hypothetical victory is nonsense.

TFL

9/17/21 11:24pm

Who is claiming BYU is 2-0 vs Utah right now? We are saying odds are BYU

The_Cuss

9/17/21 11:33pm

Little Mac

Even Ron McBride said BYU would’ve won last year

9/17/21 9:06pm

Don't forget your forfeit from last year.....haha

83MtCoug

9/17/21 3:18pm

It was right around your 4th straight win where I started noticing the shift, which is well into the 2010's, not 2000's.

BlueFever

9/17/21 4:52pm

Right now is all that matters to me. And the next three years. I can ride

ByuImaginesDragons

9/17/21 10:16pm

Weird. I live and work in Salt Lake and have not heard any chirping from Utah fans all week. Like, total silence.

BobLoblaw

9/17/21 1:07pm

Same here. There's been a lot less ute gear being worn too.

bbqoug

Eating a lot of crow does that.

SwimmingWithSharks

9/17/21 2:53pm

My cousin insisted BYU got lucky 🙄

ByuImaginesDragons

9/17/21 10:18pm

It is weird. No talking about how they should have won? This is the way.

jimmything

9/18/21 9:49pm

The hard-core Utes that hated BYU, hoped that BYU would quit sports or football

ray ray

9/17/21 1:02pm

Coupled by the fact that Whit looks old and tired, even in language

Pro Logic

9/17/21 1:06pm

Plus, BYU doesn't play Utah again until 2024, so BYU has of bragging...

lbmango

We are on the rise, they are on the decline

SausageKing

9/17/21 1:50pm

Honestly, I know we're all excited about beating Utah, but the Big 12 news is MUCH MUCH bigger

krindorr

9/17/21 1:54pm

This summary seems to get the long-term history right.

Little Mac

9/17/21 4:06pm

It's honestly amazing how little of the history between BYU/Utah has been really competitive; excited for that to return

krindorr

9/17/21 7:51pm

Getting past rivalry mental block is the biggest thing - been the biggest issue

When I was a student we had a 9 game winning streak on the yewts. What goes around comes around.

Thibious

9/17/21 2:31pm

I agree with most of what you said. Kalani just added Utah to a long list of P5s he's beaten

TFL

Isoroku Yamamoto said it best.

I guess I'm old because this is all eerily familiar. Back in 1988 when Utah

Let’s get through the season before declaring ultimate victory.

jimmything

9/17/21 4:15pm

Umm, ultimate victory for this year and the next 2 was determined last Saturday

ray ray

9/17/21 4:19pm

We play Utah again this season? So weird. I'm pretty sure we beat them the only time we see them until 2024.

Rise Against

9/17/21 4:24pm

Another thing that adds to the momentum from last weekend, recruiting. We had 22 top flight recruits at that game.

we sent a bunch of guys to the NFL from last year's team. Utah returned every..

Don't forget that NIL now exists. This is a huge positive for BYU football and basketball.
