Why do I have to defend it? It’s a stat.

I still like Whit and think he’s done a great job and love his overall record against BYU. That stat doesn’t mean those other games didn’t happen. You guys had plenty of chances to win more games and you didn’t.

I’m sorry you had to play in Independence. Should I just pretend that era didn’t happen?

Whittingham's Pac-12/Big 12 conference record:

Nov 26, 1:05pm

Now do Lavell and P5 opponents

Medute

Nov 26, 1:06pm

Then do LaVell and Utah

Knee Brace

Nov 26, 1:07pm

Sure, I'll do Lavell P5 opponents while BYU was a member of a P5 conference:

Nov 26, 1:08pm

Now do Kyle against BYU on a level playing field w/o a P5 conference advantage:

But you guys were Independent like Notre Dame!

2011 Utah was already in the PAC12. So 1 less win for Whitt.

Good catch: Fixed.

Abe Froman

Kyle has a losing record vs. BYU while in the same conference. What a star.

shimmy

Nov 26, 2:02pm

I’ll help you guys out

Medute

Nov 26, 1:23pm

Now do Utah's for the 20 yrs prior without P5 money and prestige...

diluigifan

Nov 26, 1:27pm

Shoot, do Utah's record vs. .500 Pac-12/Big 12 teams WHILE they were a member

Nov 26, 1:41pm

Lavell was 3-7 in bowl games against unranked teams

Medute

Nov 26, 5:49pm

How many BYU Bowl opponents finished ranked now?

Nov 26, 6:01pm

Those represent 21 of his 22 bowl games

Medute

Nov 26, 6:06pm

Check your math. Lavell faced 14 bowl opponents that finished ranked in the

Nov 26, 8:36pm

Here is my source. I can see the potential error.

Medute

Nov 26, 8:47pm

I bet you dollars to donuts this is a massive self own. Stop pretending your boy is some guru. One great season and

shimmy

Nov 26, 1:45pm

Not pretending anything. But a record over .500 against P5 is a good record

Medute

Nov 26, 1:54pm

A lot of programs don't have .500 records against P4 competition despite equal

ldssdl

Nov 26, 1:56pm

.540 while you are P5 isn't that great at all. As evidenced by your need to bring Lavell into the conversation as some

shimmy

Nov 26, 1:57pm

Exactly. If they were a G5, that would be a pretty good record

Jericho

Nov 26, 1:59pm

Not even mentioning they enjoyed the PAC 12 south which is a bad division at an absolute ebb. Down USC, zona, UCLA, ASU,

shimmy

Nov 26, 2:01pm

So does the G5 thing mean you guys weren’t actually good?

Medute

Nov 26, 3:30pm

You just obliterated everyone who thought BYU was the best team in the country. Just demolished them.

shimmy

Nov 26, 4:18pm

I appreciate your humor when there isn’t a legit rebuttal

Medute

Nov 26, 4:37pm

Wait, you were being serious? lol

Jericho

Nov 26, 4:40pm

Yes. I think your 1984 team was overrated and would have lost to anyone good

Medute

Nov 26, 4:47pm

Kind of like when the Utes finally made it into a real conference this year?

ochobeeguy

Nov 26, 5:35pm

Now that they aren’t in a cupcake conference they can’t string two wins together

Jericho

Nov 26, 5:39pm

Impossible to defend Utah this year. They didn’t deliver

Medute

Nov 26, 5:49pm

Defend this, then:

Abe Froman

Nov 26, 5:56pm

I mean, you’ve beaten us the last two times. Tip of the cap

Medute

Nov 26, 6:07pm

LOL Why are you avoiding the stat?

Abe Froman

Nov 26, 6:10pm

What stat?

Medute

Nov 26, 6:17pm

“Kyle has a losing record vs. BYU while in the same conference.” It’s right

Abe Froman

Nov 26, 7:03pm

Why do I have to defend it? It’s a stat.

Medute

Nov 26, 7:09pm

You obviously don’t “have to”, but you’ve defended all kinds of stupidity on CB

Abe Froman

Nov 26, 8:50pm

Well that’s not very nice 🙂

Medute

Nov 26, 8:54pm

And yet they came from the self-proclaimed "best" conference, had the "best" QB

Mufasa

Nov 26, 5:56pm

And they did not deliver in the least

Medute

Nov 26, 6:07pm

Most teams thought it was fairly easy to defend them.

ochobeeguy

Nov 26, 6:03pm

Brutal offensive game planning and design this year

Medute

Nov 26, 6:08pm

Does going 1-7 in the Big12 mean the Utes were never really good in the Pac12?

runnincoug

Nov 26, 4:29pm

No, it just means they suck this year

Medute

Nov 26, 4:38pm

But I thought this was their most talented team ever? And basically the same

Results speak for themselves

Medute

Straw Man, didn't know you rolled with MedUte so...hard.

Brandoblueblood

Nov 26, 4:46pm

I just think his record is pretty good at Utah

Medute

Nov 26, 2:59pm

I liked CB so much better when you were embarrassed to show your face here. Your schtick gets old so fast. Go to Utesfan

Nov 26, 5:24pm

Nah, this is hilarious. He might be the best poster on CB right now

Jericho

Nov 26, 5:29pm

Whitt has had one (non-COVID) season where he lost fewer than 3 games.

Spiff

Nov 26, 1:33pm

It’s hard to beat P5 teams

Medute

Nov 26, 1:54pm

Kalani about to complete a two loss season in the Big 12 in year 2.

CPAcoug87

Nov 26, 1:56pm

I like Kalani and I’m not sensitive about his success this year
