what would utah do too 2007 ohio state?

More than likely lose. But, they'd have a good shot with the way they came out in that game.

Saying 07 LSU was head and shoulders above 08 Utah is idiotic, IMHO(same would be said for Ohio State).

I want to know why everyone thinks utah is so great.

They beat bama but it was clear bama wasn't interested in that game.

bama was undefeated but they struggled with 4 loss ole miss and 5 loss LSU team that had nothing for a defense.

basically utah jumped on them and had a qb that didn't throw pick 6s so jpw was forced to make plays and he couldn't. All of a sudden bc utah can do this they become better than a national championship team

FWIW, I do think people are giving Utah more credit than they deserve.

this wouldn't be happening if bama didn't come out flat.

2008 Utah team could not beat 2007 LSU even if the Pope and the Dhali Lama blessed their magical, holy underwear. How many top 10 defenses did Utah see? Nuff said.

Bama was extremely overrated in 2008. They played the easiest of all SEC schedules and barely beat a mediocre LSU team because of INTs, then got blown out by Utah in the Sugar Bowl. Probably really should have ended ranked about 15 or 16

08 Utah played a grand total of two games against BCS teams in the regular season and barely squeaked by both. Michigan finished 3-9 and Oregon St. 9-4. If you wanna assume that Utah could have played an entire SEC schedule and go on to win the SEC Championship and finish better than 11-2 like we did, hey, more power to you. But I couldn't disagree with you more.


From my first post. No one's willing to jump on this.

If some of you wanna conveniently use our two losses to judge us last year and ignore every other game we played then go ahead


Like having to score twice in the last five minutes to beat an Alabama team that finished the regular season 6-6? Or maybe using a miracle to beat Auburn at home on the last play of the game? Or having to convert five fourth downs to beat a five loss Florida team in Tiger Stadium?

Anyone claiming the 2008 Utah team is better then the 2007 LSU team is a total moron. When healthy, the 2007 team was completely dominant.

OMG we almost lost at Bama! Yes we played like absolute shite, committed 15 or so penalties and almost lost in Ttown. Kinda like 2004 USC almost lost to Stanford, Oregon State, and UCLA.

You call that a miracle? Yes we beat 5-2 #19 Auburn in the final seconds. So the frick what?

Yes, we beat Tim Tebow and Urban Meyer by only a few points. God we suck.

I don't think any team that gives up 50 points to a lower level SEC team can be considered "dominant". Hell UT spanked that Arkansas team that year.

Ok. I'm never intended to give the impression that I thought '08 Utah would skullfrick '07 LSU. All I said was that they were a better team. If you disagree, I don't say you are stupid. It's not an outragous claim. I just disagree with you. But, to say that anyone who thinks '08 Utah was better is a moron in fact makes you a moron.

Just think about this. Who is better? '07 Bama or '08 Bama? I think everyone would say '08 Bama. LSU almost lost to '07 Bama and Utah handily beat '08 Bama. Is this such a bad comparison?

14 penalties for 130 yards and 3 turnovers is why the 07 bama game was close

almost losing doesnt mean shite. yall almost lost to us last year.

utah 08 played 2 teams worth a frick. they happened to catch one of those after they had just lost the sec title game and their best oline men decided he didn't wana play anymore.

Utah 08 got lucky. bama wasnt ready or interested in that game until they were down and jpw had to make plays and he couldn't

Its not like they out talented bama or just ran all over you with power. they came out on fire and then didn't make mistakes.

I don't understand why bama fans now think utah is so great. If yall played them ten times yall crush them nine times.

It's a super secret plan to force Lsu fans to admit this.
