There is a narrative in the Beehive State that has been building momentum in recent weeks, and it's absolutely absurd. Many Utah fans still believe that the Utes' football team is better than BYU this year. In the face of logic, reason, truth, and history, this is a state divided not over what truly happened, but rather what could happen if the teams were to square off once again.
It's mania. It's delusion. It's coping beyond rationality. It's how they're handling the sting of defeat up North.
I recently put out a tweet outlining my confusion over this debate, citing strength of record and head-to-head result as reasons BYU stands supreme atop their Rocky Mountain throne.
