UVU is Utah’s open enrollment university. They aren’t remotely close to BYU.

This has nothing to do with being P5. This is comparing academics

BYU has the best students, doesn't mean the best academics.

I've never said I look down on UVU or their students. I haven't even implied it.

I disagree. What are your measurables?

I take part of that back. The special part of BYU academics is that

They're two different schools that serve two completely different purposes.

BYU is a better academic institution and a better platform to post graduate work

Isn't UVU the BYU annex campus?

Not sure what's going on in the Provo/Orem area regarding belittling a university but just a quick look at rankings

BYU isn't even that hard to get into. It's like #89. Imagine if our football
