When Utah beat Southern Cal by one point during the regular season, meaning USC didn’t win its division, Pac-12 changed its rule and put its two best teams in the conference title game to give Southern Cal a chance to make the national football playoffs.

Backfired!

In the rematch Utah won by TWENTY THREE POINTS, 47-24.

Maybe Pac-12 should have been promoting Utah instead?

They would have changed that rule long before the season started. Not because of one game in September. Probably during conference meetings and majority would have had to vote on it. Quit stretching the truth.

Utah has 3 losses. Why would they promote them?

Allen, after watching Utah play last night it’s hard to imagine them losing 3 games this year. Really impressed with their gritty style of play. just sayin’
