      Utah tied at 36 with Arizona State and Virginia in the latest Pregame.com Vegas rankings.

      BYU not ranked, no surprise (but it only goes to 40).

      Kind of interesting that Vegas makes LSU a 13-point favorite over Arkansas and that's what this poll would predict (Arkansas at #9).

      Vegas says LSU and Alabama are #1 and #2 with Oklahoma State and Oklahoma #3 and #4, Oregon and Stanford #5 and #6. So there have been plenty of games between the top teams.

        I'm taking the high road. I've already said such. What do you want? Sheesh.

        I wish the Utes well in the Rose Bowl, Sun Bowl, or whatever "other scenario" that plays out.
        Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

            Other scenarios include:

            The Alamo Bowl

            CBS Sports experts select the college football teams they believe will make the NCAA National Semifinals at the end of the 2026 season and give projections for each game.




            The Holiday Bowl



            And even the Fight Hunger Bowl -(Only one Pac-12 BCS team; the other of Stanford/Oregon gets selected before the Utes; Washington and UCLA both win, getting to 7-5 and both are selected before the Utes; the winner of Cal/ASU is selected before the Utes.)


            Though this is possible, I couldn't find anybody paid to talk about sports who thinks that the Utes will go lower than the Holiday Bowl.

                Utah cannot win the South Division.

                        Oh. You are mixing up winning the South and appearing in the championship game.

                          No, we're not. Utah is the only team that can win the South. ASU and UCLA can both lose it, or can play in the championship game; but unlike them, Utah can definitely win the South.

                            Oh this is a semantics argument. How about we let the PAC-12 decide it.



                            Please refer to the title of the article. btw.. I already knwo your argument but if you want to type it out go ahead.

                              Yes, you are. Utah is not winning the South this year, regardless of what UClA and ASU do.

                                btw... If Utah play in the championship game it will be considered as having won the pac-12 south by vegas. (+200 at the start of the year).
