Utes lose by 18. Actual Trib headline:

Impressive they forced Arizona to get the win.

Lol. “Arizona HAD to score 18 more than us just to win this game!” Just think if Arizona only won by 2. Less forceful

With 10 minutes left they were down by nine…

“Only” 9 you mean. 😂

Typo, my bad!

"Forced Arizona to stop their comeback attempt"

And in the midst of a 21-0 Arizona run

10 minutes left? That’s 1/4th of the game. Imagine writing that for baseball.

1/16/22 9:58am

Watched your whole gif. Nerves of steel. My heart rate went up just watching.

Even worse and more predictable - Newman.

Should vault them into the top 25.

Definitely a quality loss

"Best (however many losses) team in the country!"

You just can't make this stuff up. Oh, wait - the Trib does. Every. Single. Day.

Forced AZ to score 18 more points to be able to blow them out...

I don't hate the headline, it's a realization of the huge disparity in team quality

krindorr

1/16/22 12:14pm

Problem is they were down 9 w/ 10 min left. That really isn't keeping it close

Socrates Johnson

1/16/22 12:36pm

Agree with that, but it's pretty common in media to make an interesting story

krindorr

1/16/22 12:58pm

I understand your point, don’t think it applies here, but just 1 guy’s opinion

Socrates Johnson

1/16/22 1:04pm

That one makes some sense in context of congratulating the Utah offense (not team as a whole). As for this one...

krindorr

1/16/22 1:24pm

This doesn't feel like "Utah is so bad, we're surprised they hung around"

Socrates Johnson

1/16/22 1:38pm

Fair, depends a lot on where the article goes with it

krindorr

1/16/22 1:46pm

A good comparison is Utah v Colorado in football this last year

krindorr

1/16/22 1:32pm

See above.

BYU loses by 18 Trib headline:

1/16/22 12:20pm

Haha, Ute homers are delusional

1/16/22 4:25pm

Meh. I'm less bothered by that; Arizona did pull away late. Utah did a much

RebelScum

1/16/22 6:16pm

Gonzaga >>> Arizona &. BYU >> Utah

1/16/22 8:07pm

True, What's the point?

RebelScum

1/16/22 8:12pm

The gap between BYU and Utah is larger than the Gonzaga-Arizona gap

krindorr

1/16/22 8:30pm

I can accept that.
