So why was BYU not crushing Utah when they were in the same conference?

The irony is that Utah has also significantly declined since it joined the PAC12

How can you say this? Utah basketball has been a legit program in the PAC- football their mid level but get a pay check

Since joining the PAC12, Utah has gone to the NCAA Tourney 2 out of 7 years.

They haven’t been the doormat of the PAC in basketball and if I recall they made a good run once or twice. I don’t

I said they have been "middling". (that's down from what they were in the MWC)

Kind of an interesting point you bring up- who in G5 has been consistently good in the last 7 years?

SouthernBlueBlood

2/25/18 8:34am

In basketball? Wichita State. Some of the AAC teams have been pretty good.

You might be right that Utah will never win the PAC 12

They definitely had more success from 03-10 compared to 11-18

It is not absurd. Utah goes to the NCAA tournament LESS. Is ranked LOWER in

Richbyu

2/25/18 8:24am

I get the envy. I have it. But I’d take Utah’s success in the PAC since they’ve joined. Fans seem to buy in as well

SouthernBlueBlood

2/25/18 8:29am

Envy? You are projecting... I haven't said anything that isn't accurate.

they have been in the top 25 at some point of every football season it seems. top 10 several times

Actually, everything you’ve said is inaccurate.

You're confusing success, with more interesting conference mates.

You’re cherry picking pre-P12 success. You’re also erroneously attributing

Utah Utes: Only 2 NCAA tourney appearances in 7 years in the PAC12. Middling.

On the verge of three NCAA tournament appearances in the last four years.
