games being close toss-ups in spite of any perceived superiority that an analyst may determine based on talent or win-loss record for the season. Not every game has been this way, but it’s the truest one game season.

It's OK for BYU fans to dance on Utes' grave, but the BYU players...

Utah will be tough off a bye. They will get some stuff figured out

BYU '80

12:52am

You know that BYU will also be coming off a bye…

Yukon

Kalani hasn’t been good off a bye historically

Kolipoki

8:08am

Do you actually have data or are you thinking of just 1-2 bad games after byes?

MaximusMeridius

8:32am

2019 USF, 2018 Northern Illinois, 2017 USU

Kolipoki

8:45am

Those games were also just bad situations from the start…

Example of why correlation does not always equal causation

MaximusMeridius

They are also 3 of the worst losses in BYU history

Kolipoki

5:33pm

He’s 3-4 after bye weeks. On the post game show last week they said that Kalani

ProvoSpain

8:55am

Wow only 7 bye weeks in 9 years??

MaximusMeridius

10:15am

The 3-4 is against FBS teams You asked for data & we provided data

Kolipoki

10:25am

We've had way more FBS games after byes than 7. Bad data

MaximusMeridius

I didn’t count 2020 because the schedule was fluid and they haven’t played yet

ProvoSpain

We have had a bye week this yr

Yep and Utah is typically better than byu off a bye

BYU '80

8:34am

Based on what

MaximusMeridius

He will certainly TRY to have them ready. KWhitt looks as lost as anyone on that sideline right now, imo.

Whit looks like he has dementia. He really doesn't look like he knows

DeepCCoug

I had this very thought seeing the TV shots of him on sideline last night,

SageOwl

11:21am

I guess tcu and Arizona should be grateful that Whitt is holding onto

TRAP GameS — that's what they are.

The season’s record or recruiting rankings never seem to matter in the Holy War.

BringYourUltimate

12:56am

They haven't?? Before our last match there WAS that little 0-10 thing.

SinkingQuffa

5:34am

There was no 0-10 thing.

That over half our fans are gun-shy about RES in 3 weeks (rather than licking their chops) let's me know

It is. But some years the disparity between the teams is so wide it doesn't matter.

SinkingQuffa

2:12pm

I dream of that being the case this year, but I just don’t believe it will be.

BringYourUltimate

3:28pm

Because you're as broken as a fan as the yewts are as a team. And that's okay. But do unbreak yourself.

SinkingQuffa

I’m never described as a pessimist, sometimes described as an optimist, but

BYU was horrible like Utah was around this time of year and turned it around

puntersarepeople

3:48pm

If Utah weren't as individually talented as they are, I'd actually be more concerned about them.

SinkingQuffa

3:52pm

The great mystery. Why BYU folds against Utah in football?

wilsdad

5:43am

Jaren Hall was the QB in that game not Zach Wilson.

BYU has never been their little brother. Yeah they had a nice little run because

porl thompson

Agree except the word "still." Utah has always been BYU's little bro.

Brandoblueblood

Yeah the big problem for Utah when they play us is they don’t

Just win
