That game was brutal. I believe we had the ball down 2 but couldn't get into field goal range at the end of the game

This was after being down 21 points and we clawed our way back. In addition, John Beck could have easily ran for the first down but threw the ball incomplete on 4th down in overtime. I drove up for that game and was feeling confident but Utah played out of their minds. The only time I can think of BYU winning when BYU was favored was 2021.

He always seemed to get screwed on PI. Wasn’t there another in Arizona in 06?

Yep. Utah was very mediocre that year. Some bad losses. But Whittingham had them ready to play us.

Bronco had no answer for Ratliff that game. It was so frustrating.

Bronco’s record against Utah alone was reason enough BYU needed to move on

He was 3-7? Kalani is currently 1-4, so I don't think that's reason enough

Bronco was when Utah indisputably surpassed us as a program

It would have been a tie score, since the game went to OT.

I'd prefer that be the score at the end of the first half with more to come.

You talking about the BYU team that went 6-6? And comparing them to this team?
