In large part because BYU gifted Utah short fields and defensive scores:
From 2005 through 2019, BYU was 3-11 vs Utah. BYU scored 293 points and the Utes 407.

BYU committed 38 turnovers and the Utes committed 19. But BYU turned those 19 turnovers into just 40 points, while the Utes turned their turnovers into 169 points. The Utes had 9 defensive touchdowns.

BYU had 6 touchdown drives that started inside Utah's 40 yard-line, including 5 that started inside the 30-yard line, 3 that started inside the 20-yard line, and 1 that started inside the 10-yard line.
Utah 17 touchdown drives that started inside BYU's 40 yard-line, including 8 that started inside the 30 yard-line, 4 that started inside the 20 yard-line, and 3 that started inside the 5 yard-line.
