Utah's second toughest opponent? TCU, a team that will finish the season in the top 10, that is WAY better than Ole Miss, and oh yeah—Utah won; again, something Florida can only wish they did with Ole Miss.
A champion is not the team with the most talent. If that was the case, then the 2008 NFL champs would be the Patriots instead of the clearly less-talented Giants. The Patriots only lost one game all season, after all. Fortunately, that's not how things work in the NFL.
In the NFL, the champion is the team that earns it. Unfortunately, in college football it's the team with the right name/logo on their jersey. Does Utah have as much talent as Florida or Oklahoma? That depends on if you're talking about the talent to play the game of football or the talent to win actual football games.
Last time I checked, WINNING is what makes a team deserve to be champions; not raw talent. By that measure, the University of Utah is the 2009 college football national champions, with a resume of teams they beat to back up their title as strong as any other team in the country can claim.
Oh yeah, and not a single loss. The only team of all 119 to accomplish that feat. You are wrong. Your article is wrong. You should be congratulating the Utes on their historic run, but instead you are trying to tear them down.
When the BCS is dead and gone, people will look to this Utah team, this national championship deserving Utah team, as the final nail in the coffin. It lends a whole new meaning to the term BCS buster, doesn't it?
We're going to send you the most entertaining Utah Utes Football articles, videos, and podcasts from around the web.
