and assumes the rest of CFB openly mocks and devalues Utah. It's cute.

Then you all get surprised when the Big 12 welcomes Utah with open arms, Big 12 media, national media, AP...all pick Utah as the CFP favorite. That's what makes Lasso and CB so fun. Are all of these CFB insiders wrong and you guys right? We'll see.

Browse around the message boards though, CFB reddit, twitter, whatever. You'll find there's a solid respect for Utah, especially from the BIG P12 reps and a nice lovefest between Utah and Ducks fans in particular.

They don't see Utah as P2 by any stretch...but they look less down on Utah than they do the rest of P4.

And they should. It's part of the game and the mystique. No mistaking that. But they don't say... Utah sucks, the Big 12 will eat them alive. Lol.

They'll say, the Big 12 sucks, a decent program like Utah is going to roll them.
