No one should be surprised by Wilner’s take. I’m not surprised by yours
Some people are just predictable.

My favorite Wilner prediction was BYU going 0-5 against P 12 in 2021.

And then BYU went 5-0.

A perfect score.

Except for the 4 teams that beat them every year, I think they're unbeatable

But most of the time they are just absolutely forcing those teams to beat them

The real question is how much does the time off hurt and is he 100%

Time off is less relevant than overall healing and if the injury affects his running game. To install a QB

That is so not true. Being away from the game and game reps for more than a year and a half is a real concern.

They already forgot what the COVID year did to the whole PAC12

I'm not disagreeing; Utah should be one of the favorites. People just expect

Two real interesting points on this 1) it's not just Utah fans who are high on Rising & 2) the XII is stacked at QB

Even if Cam is on par with where he was before the knee injury, Utah is only a middle of the road Big 12 team.

Let's be honest they will not be middle of road. They will be top 3. There isn't

Based upon what? Their mediocre showing against the worst team in Big 12? Their mediocre showing against the PAC?

All I'm doing is following the metrics that show there's a clear difference between the Big 12 and the PAC 12.

We have the last 3 year's track of Utah underperforming expectations as a clear road map.

All the preseason talk of competing for a playoff spot and you think you hit the over? BTW, not my expectations.

I'd argue it's more along the lines of one overperformance, one underperformance, and one push

2024 and the Big 12 are going to be exhilarating. Programs establishing themselves with all the parity. No blue bloods

"Maybe it's time for Wilner to leave sports journalism" : I'm sure the 3 Yewts in a basement would open up a spot..

I wouldn't have projected Utah to win 6 games with BYU's schedule last year

I agree, Utah would not have won 6 games with BYUs schedule last year.

So you're holding Wilner to the same journalistic standard as a random CBer?

His prediction of BYU is warranted in my opinion.
