The fact that you so easily won so many games in the PAC but couldn’t win games

outside of your conference says otherwise. That being side you guys are primed for a big year and may win the big 12. Don’t think that would have happened in the last 10 years though. Not in the big 12

Rumor is they've pooled together $219.73

Which is what this conference would be worth without Utah

Yes. Your grammar is on par for the school you attended.

That is awesome! The anti-Utah crowd is pretty small, online...but Utah being the villain

Weird, The PAC played for 2 national championships compared to the big 12's 1

And the utes didn't play in either one of them. There were those two Rose Bowl

I do. Both Oregon and USC would've been in the CFP had Utah not upset them. No other conference has that dynamic

Neither of which was worthy of it if you look at their seasons and next game

BYU '80

Jun 13, 3:10pm

Nah...no one cares about bowl outcomes in this era. It's an exhibition game outside the CFP. What's weird

TFL

Jun 13, 4:53pm

BYU has been better in bowls than Utah of late

BYU '80

Jun 13, 5:36pm

Yep...when they stopped counting. Utah used to make the bowls a statement opportunity. Now the concern

ColonelMustard

Jun 13, 6:21pm

I disagree. Utah had the best OOC record in the country then would struggle late in the season

Rising being hurt excuse... check. No mention of Ohio st. starters out... check

BC it doesn't matter. It's the optics. A RB playing CB against Njibia and the "backup" Marvin Harrison with Stroud

TFL

^^^Great example of my point in paragraph 2.

You realize most of Ohio State starters were out because they didn’t want to

Throttled? lol. Hey, whatever happened to those backups Stroud, Njibia, Harrison Jr, lol

You literally called them equal teams… you see now how silly that sounds?

You like to mention 3 backups for OSU, but there’s 11 players on offense and 11

The B12 is more difficult on average...

To restate your argument...Utah has won a lot of gimmes...and the schools that came with them will improve

How was the entire PAC12’s OoC record in the last several years?

I'm not sure what you mean. Pac-12 Utah has one of the best OOC records in the country. Utes are

Too obsess-ive over a minor data point. So few of those had a healthy QB1 from start to finish. They're not the

Utah is 31% vs P5 .500 teams. Losing records currently to Ore /UW

Ok. But over what time frame? When? What you're looking for is predictive value that could translate to a 2024 schedule

TFL

Jun 13, 8:17pm

This is during the PAC. Utah has struggled out of conference

Bobmarleyjr

No they don’t. In addition to that they have one of worst bowl records in the

Who does? Utes have the best win % of any P5 in the country.

We’re talking Pac 12 as a conference

Playing against better competition, on average, will tend to increase losses

WVU_Prof

Jun 13, 5:45pm

I like the dialogue. Perhaps you may consider a few counter points. First, the Big 12 "hatred" of Utah is just a handful

TFL

Jun 13, 8:11pm

I live in WV and teach at WVU...the hate for Utah is not just on twitter.

WVU_Prof

Jun 14, 5:02am

TFL magically knows that most BIG12 fans love Utah. His source = just trust him.

Jun 14, 8:33am

And how do you know how big or small the the anti-Utah crowd is? And have you

Atmospheric_Cougar

Jun 13, 4:33pm

It's small. You saw that with the awkward signature to cancel Utah push. That was mostly BYU guys...lol. But to be real

Go it, so you have no idea how big it is. Thanks for sharing your feelings.

Some probably want to rename it PAC 12 so they don’t have to remove tattoos
