Respect. Like it or not, recruiting rankings matter. They shouldn't, on field results should be the only thing that matters, but BYU got no benefit-of-the-doubt. It was like everyone was just waiting to pounce and say "I told you so!" After that Kansas game. Had Utah finished 10-2 they're probably CFP bound (maybe not that Clemson win threw a wrench in it) due to pre-season bias and recruiting rankings.
