That plague has been reshaped from the antiquated BCS days, formed in an almost more damaging way, a kind of counterfeit, an imposter, meant to make things better, but … no, it does not make things what they should be. It remains too heavily based on the same fraudulent foundation — opinion — that has never been properly limited or eliminated, not to a satisfying degree.
And there’s a solid chance that foundation will end up cursing Utah football, even if the Utes win out and finish at 12-1, beating Oregon in the Pac-12 championship game.
