How BYU's 2012 football opponents fared: Week 10
Record: 2-7, 0-6 Pac-12
Last week: Lost at Utah, 49-6
Any strides the Cougars might have apparently made in their performance against Stanford last week completely vanished against the Utes. After rolling up more than 400 passing yards against the Cardinal, Wazzu mustered only 259 in Salt Lake City.
They fared no better on the defensive side of the ball, allowing the Utes to tally 453 yards of offense and rarely pressuring freshman quarterback Travis Wilson.
And to top off a truly terrible performance, the Cougars allowed Utah kick returner Reggie Dunn to score his third TD return in the last two games.
Next up: Saturday, Nov. 10 vs. No. 18 UCLA

Combined record to date 41 Wins; 63 losses. 40$ Nuff said. And assumming BYU wins out the current record of teams they will have beaten this year is 25 Wins and 47 losses. Approximately 35%. Nuff said.
The Utes are winless against the WAC, winless on the road, winless against conference teams with more than 3 wins, and on the brink of bowl elimination against a team the Utes have never beaten. Nuff said.
What does the Utes' schedule have to do with this story? How do Utah's struggles make your opponents better or your wins more quality?
When will BYU fans stop looking at every short coming through the lens of "yea but Utah _______" fill in the blank.
If you want to bash on the Utes, do it on a story about Utah, but you might want to beat Utah at least once before you do that.
DOINK!! I'll never forget the sound of the rattle of that goal post.
