I agree, I seriously doubt that Utah would be left out of the CFP if they win out… I’m much more worried about actually winning out than what would happen afterwards.
USC is the stinker, it would really help if they lost again… but who do they lose to? Oregon and UCLA seem to be the most logical prospects but I just don’t see it.
Looking at the remaining schedule UW is no slouch, the sharps have it as a pick ’em. Arizona, although just got walloped by UW, seems to have our number recently and it’s at their house. UCLA… I’m actually more confident in a win here than at UW, but could still be a loss. Colorado, my goodness, they have a crappy record but seem to play really tough against us every year. Plus they look better this year.
Basically from where I see it, it would be miracle-esq to win out from here in regular season. If the Utes have a 10 win season I’ll be ecstatic (they’ve already exceeded my expectations for this year).
