In fact if you want a NY6 bowl game, we need Cincinnati to make the playoffs. BYU at this point, just needs to do their part. "cheering for Utah' to help our SOS really doesn't matter all... it's just dumb too.
BYU is in a position to get a NY6 bowl now, but it will all completely hinge on Cincinnati making the playoffs. That's who you need to cheer for... not Utah.
