Utes v Beavers...Rice Eccles Stadium 7 PM EST

Aren't they?

It's funny to think one head coach took five seconds to scan through CFB standings, saw BYU at 5-2, and ranked them 14th.

It is called national respect.

Who did that? Why is it funny?

I think you are just being grouchy.

wake me when BYU defeats someone with a winning record, or even a .500 record

[BoylenOver]

Who did that? Why is it funny?

One coach putting BYU at 16 (which would give them 9 points; I mistakenly said 14th before) seems more plausible than multiple coaches ranking a team with the resume of the Cougars.

But hey, if BYU exposed some Oregon St weaknesses on film that Utah can exploit, I will be grateful.

What time on Saturday should I wake you? Wait, did you mean by season's end?

unless New Mexico State is having some break out season, isn't the TCU game your last chance at beating a winning team?

Utah's already lost their chance at beating a quality opponent.

I wonder if this was Whit. It would definitely be in his interest for BYU to be ranked high. Maybe that is what is so funny.

That was my point. Sorry you didn't catch that.

[Cougarmandias]

This season is a failure if Utah don't make it to a bowl game.

BYU "moving toward a slot in the top 25" is funny, though.

Well, its true. He didn't say we'd arrive.

No. There is also Hawaii (the only WAC team with a winning record) and our CUSA bowl opponent.

Meanwhile, Utah doesn't have any teams with winning records left on its schedule. What? Could that be true? Records of Utah's remaining opponents:

2-5
2-5
3-4
3-4
1-7

DDD's line was clever, and the thought of BYU being in any conversation about the top 25 amuses me.

if only there was some witty comeback that showed Utah was better than BYU this year ....

but sadly, I got nothing

Let that be a lesson to you! (Something about a land war in Asia...a Sicilian...I forget)
