I'm just hoping BYU scores over 20 points and doesn't turn the ball over. I think if they do that, they win.

My prediction--we score at least 30 and they don't make it to 20.

I don't think we get 30. Their defense is legit and they are at home. 26-13.

I think BYU would have to have 0 TOs, and Utah have 3+ TOs, for BYU to score 30.

If that is how it plays out, I'll take it.

I expect our defense to give us a few short fields.

Utah's defense has been missing key 2-deep players from their front 7.

Reid and O'Toole were both back against Houston.

Fair, but they were still missing Tanuvasa, Vimahi, and Tafuna vs. Houston.

BYU's offense has improved significantly from the SMU game.

You realize I'm the one who calculated that stat you cited? You know what other

I'll accuse you of the same. You are completely ignoring how their offense is

Carnac

Not at all. Utah is losing close games in spite of their offense.

Based on this season, dont' you think it is more likely that BYU wins the TO

Carnac

I think BYU's defense gets 2 turnovers. But I think it's highly likely Utah's

Different years, different teams.

Yeah. Here’s the context you’re ignoring

BYU hasn't scored 30+ points on Utah since 2006. Max Hall, Taysom Hill, and

lol. Scores from 10 years ago are completely irrelevant.

You can't disregard the recent history of the rivalry when Utah's HC is the same

The only recent history is BYU up 17-0 at halftime

Huh? BYU was up 16-7 against Utah in 2021. 24-10 against UCF 2 weeks ago.

Vegas is 1-7 this year versus their own spread.

Carnac

I think we get there in the 4th to put it away. My prediction.

BYU in Big 12 play has gone against the #8, 12, 14, 15, and 16th defenses in ppg
