They haven't even played a top 40 team nationally and they're 4-4. I know rivalry games are weird but what are we afraid of??

Man up! Utah is not a good team this year. Not even their defense. BYU wins big.

Neither was Oklahoma State and Utah has the rivalry motivation and a better coach. On paper, we should win big though

Oklahoma State does have stellar line play though. Utah does not.

I hope so. Nas on paper it should be. But I think it’ll be in doubt going into the 4th quarter

BYU had a short week to prepare and Ok St had a bye week to change many things

You can throw analytics out the window for the rivalry game.

Gundy is a better coach than Twit. Will be a tough one though for sure.

Important point: they haven’t played a top 35 scoring offense yet. BYU is 23

That’s because most of the board wets themselves at thought of the Utes. Cowards

Need to start fast, quite the crowd, and get a double digit lead. Don't give them hope and they'll quit.

Their defense is very good. But those statistics are also skewed by teams

I feel Utah is always vulnerable to big plays and the tight ends over the middle

Oct 30, 2:43pm

That would mean Arod would need to call plays to TE's over the middle - hope he

Yup and be humble now so if we lose they can’t throw it our face. Very important

When has humility or general decency stopped them from throwing it in our faces?

The Ute defense is legit, we can't turn it over. You're right.
