Moliere chose right!

Why is the Utah game so early? 5:30 kick against Idaho State? No wonder its not sold out.

I didn't see that one. Can you post a link?

It was a couple days ago. I will have to try and find it. I should have saved it in my bookmarks for such a moment.

Pac-12 network owns us. But I love the early kickoff! Keep 'em coming, Larry Scott.

I've seen maps as recently as a couple of months ago that had BYU as the most popular. Obviously the map I saw was more scientific than this.

In Utah? I doubt it. Utah is the biggest state university. In the last decade the percentage of kids at BYU from the state of Utah has hovered in the low 30%'s. At Utah it's something like 70-80%. it enrolls the most kids from the state, and those kids usually end up staying. I don't see anything surprising here.

I called in a favor to Chris Hill, so It's my fault.

Tis true, I am quite invested in this debate.

There is this:

Of course, all of these maps are complete bullshit.

CBS is probably more credible than this. The only thing that would trump CBS Sports is ESPN.

Here it is. I think it's very exciting.

You really think so? I would be very surprised. Everything I've seen shows that Utah County leans about 90% to BYU, SL County is about 50/50 (SLC proper much more heavily Ute fans), and Davis County is also pretty close to 50/50. The further south you go, you are going to get a BYU majority. I just don't it's even that close. BYU for the win.

Edit: One of the papers (SLTRIB or DesNews) ran the numbers a year or so ago and broke it down by city and/or county. I'm getting my numbers from my recollection of that article.

That is just cold. Utep, ULM, The Bison, Buffalo, Nevada, NNI, the fighting Sioux, Central Michigan and so many other pathetic schools are on this map and no Utah.

FWIW that was a TicketCity map not a CBS Sports map. I don't know how they stack in the credibility hierarchy.
