Default My perception of how Utah is viewed in Texas this year

Probably a very good team that no one has watched or cares about.

That is no knock on Utah. This is how the Pac-12 is viewed in general. Or actually not viewed, because I don't think they get watched very much. Late night games.

The same would apply to BYU if BYU were in the top 10.

I can't name a single player on Utah. The QB, I should know his name, but for the moment I've forgotten it.

Imagine Tom Hanks yelling, "WILSON!!"

In the Cincy game during a pause they briefly showed the announcers who were going to to the Utah/ASU game talking about Booker, Utah's runningback. I muted the TV because I don't care.

I have only seen bits and pieces of their team, so I can't add much. The articles and stats show they are good on defense and adequate on offense. Obviously, they did well against Michigan.

I don't even know what is good about their defense. Is just good across the line? Or is there one aspect that is just dynamic? It is hard for me to find time to watch BYU let alone follow a rival which we don't play much.
