to say we had a reason to wanna beat cincy and bama didnt have one to beat utah seems weird to me
neither are championship games and their both against inferior conferences
give utah some credit their defense raped in that game and stop giving bama a pass they aint our friends lol
Utah gets no credit from me whatsoever. Alabama does get a pass, and a lot of respect from me. Alabama may not be our friends, but they are our "cousins", sort of like the ones at the family reunion that you fight with but enjoy playing video games with. They are like us in that they are SEC, are building a long-term dynasty, and consistently snag 4 and 5 star recruits to replenish the talent pool. In my book, Utah, Boise State, et al need to work harder to get my respect. The small teams live it up at bowl games, like a yokel winning the lottery. Big teams can afford to be snobs at consolation bowl games, in terms of money and prestige.
