Hmm...the way the Committee counts it, Utah has more quality wins
Teams above .500 or better, Utah has more wins with a substantially higher MOV.

Well you are about as wrong as you can be on this. Utah should not be in. It is that simple.

Yep, Oklahoma has the better resume

Your vote doesn’t count. Neither does mine. Utah’s next in line in the polls.

No they won't. Big 12 champ will be in. And Utah will lose to Oregon

No one cares about brand or ratings, its because Oklahoma's resume is better

Finebaum clearly cares about brand and school names.

Every G5 and most of P5 should be rooting for Utah to get in. BYU, Okie and Baylor fans have exemptions from that.

If both utah and Oklahoma win, utah should be left out because they have fewer

Did you feel this way when BYU got screwed in 1996?

They had a great team. Should have had a higher stakes bowl game.

I'm ok with them being left out. They are part of the entitled system. I'm fine if they are treated like crap.

It makes me want to cheer for Oregon, Baylor, and LSU

No way. I don't give a crap about some really good P5 team sticking it to some other P5 team.

Utah has beaten zero ranked teams, lost to the only ranked team they played, and

Finebaum's take is ridiculous. He's beclowning himself. I don't root for the Utes, and I don't know whether they

It's always okay to ridicule Utah.

That's the point I'm trying to make. Oklahoma could very well be the more

Oklahoma's a better team, with a better schedule. Sucks for the Utes, but true.

If it was BYU, I'd be appalled. But it is Utah so I like it.
