Compare the 2008 Utes and the 2008 Gators, and the sked is what makes teams more worthy, not how so called "weak" conferences are weak. The Mountain West Conference is new, and is already in talks of being an auto-qualifier. Here is the skeds of those teams:
2008 Utes (went undefeated):
Week 1:at Michigan (Michigan was a 24th rank, we were unranked)
Week 2:vs UNLV (MWC)
Week 3:vs Utah State (our rivals)
Week 4:at Air Force (Tough MWC)
Week 5:vs Weber State (Had a great year in FCS play that year)
Week 6:vs Orgeon State (Close game, with 11 points in the final minute)
Week 7:at Wyoming (Wow. We won at elevations of 7000 feet, and we OWNED them)
Week 8:vs Colorado State (Wasn't hard, but we destroy them every year, but they make it a bit closer each year)
Week 9:at New Mexico (close rivalry game)
Week 10:vs TCU (Props to both teams, but we won on Blackout day, 13-10 at the last second, with a TD)
Week 11:at SDSU (When will these guys turn into contenders?)
Week 12:vs BYU (Rivalry game)
Week 13 (Bowl games):Sugar Bowl vs Alabama (How did we destroy an HUGE favorite)
2008 Florida Gators (lost 1 game vs Ole Miss):
Week 1:vs Hawaii (Easy game for them)
Week 2:vs Miami (FL) (Well, not a SUPER EPIC WIN Miami team, just a average football team)
Week 3:at Tennesse (A joke since Peyton Manning left)
Week 4:vs Ole Miss (How on Earth did they lose to an easy team?!?!)
Week 5:at Arkansas (Again, an easy team)
Week 6:vs LSU (Lucky to blow out them)
Week 7:vs Kentucky (Crappy SEC team)
Week 8:vs Georgia (Team that has no defense)
Week 9:at Vanderbilt (Fail team that barely went above .500)
Week 10:at South Carolina (Fail team)
Week 11:vs The Citadel (Who are these guys?!)
Week 12 (SEC Championship): vs Alabama (Lost to Utah)
Week 13 (National Championship) vs Oklahoma (Choker=Oklahoma)
There. See what team has a better sked |

HAHA RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
|
|
Dude, we didn't face a choker. |
|

Well, let's compare this:
Tell me how many D1 Championships the MWC has won in any sport, then compare that to the Big 10, Big 12, ACC, SEC, and Pac-10.
Also, compare academics. Ivy is obviously best, but I gotta sat, UNC, Duke, and Wake are great academic schools in the ACC. |

Your opinion is so obviously biased, I'm a Big Ten man myself so here's some facts for you:
SEC 17 national titles > MWC 0
SEC late year 10 bowl games > MWC 5 bowl games
SEC 15 heisman trophy winners > MWC 1
Don't even go there. |

I'm having fun with this let's look at the facts:
2008 Utes (went undefeated):
Week 1:at Michigan (Michigan was a 24th rank, we were unranked) Michigan finished 3-9....
Week 2:vs UNLV (MWC) UNLV finished 5-7
Week 3:vs Utah State (our rivals) Rivals or no they finished 3-9 in the Sun Belt
Week 4:at Air Force (Tough MWC) 8-5?
Week 5:vs Weber State (Had a great year in FCS play that year) Wow FCS... Tough.
Week 6:vs Orgeon State (Close game, with 11 points in the final minute) 9-4
Week 7:at Wyoming (Wow. We won at elevations of 7000 feet, and we OWNED them) It could be on the peak of everest they finished 4-8, honestly.
Week 8:vs Colorado State (Wasn't hard, but we destroy them every year, but they make it a bit closer each year) 7-6 this was the 3rd best team you've played to point
Week 9:at New Mexico (close rivalry game) Close game vs a 4-8 team
Week 10:vs TCU (Props to both teams, but we won on Blackout day, 13-10 at the last second, with a TD) 11-2, good.
Week 11:at SDSU (When will these guys turn into contenders?) 2-10. Still pretenders.
Week 12:vs BYU (Rivalry game) 10-3, :)
Week 13 (Bowl games):Sugar Bowl vs Alabama (How did we destroy an HUGE favorite) Upset, way to go.
2008 Florida Gators (lost 1 game vs Ole Miss):
Week 1:vs Hawaii (Easy game for them) Easy for them? Maybe that's why THEY WERE IN THE TITLE GAME
Week 2:vs Miami (FL) (Well, not a SUPER EPIC WIN Miami team, just a average football team) A 7-6 team would've been in the top 5 teams you played
Week 3:at Tennesse (A joke since Peyton Manning left) 5-7. Easy.
Week 4:vs Ole Miss (How on Earth did they lose to an easy team?!?!) 9-4? They would've KILLED Utah.
Week 5:at Arkansas (Again, an easy team) 5-7. In the tougher SEC
Week 6:vs LSU (Lucky to blow out them) Still the blew out a 8-5 team
Week 7:vs Kentucky (Crappy SEC team) 7-6 and worst in the confrence. Would have finished TIED FOR FOURTH IN THE MWC? DO YOU GET WHAT IM SAYING?
Week 8:vs Georgia (Team that has no defense) They won 10 games with no defense
Week 9:at Vanderbilt (Fail team that barely went above .500) 5 teams in the MWC went .500 or barley over.
Week 10:at South Carolina (Fail team) 7-6. Would've TIED FOR FOURTH THE SEC IS BETTER I CANT RE-ITTERATE IT ANYMORE.
Week 11:vs The Citadel (Who are these guys?!) Better than Weber State.
Week 12 (SEC Championship): vs Alabama (Lost to FLORIDA ASWELL!)
Week 13 (National Championship) vs Oklahoma They made it to the title.
Hobobilly wins. |

Please post a link to your results, send me a PM. |
|
|
NVM, make it the 2009 Gators |
|
|
Utes lose all the sims, but WhatIfSports fails at knowing how close a REAL Gators-Utes game would be |

Utes aren't any good at all.
Huskers>Utes
Longhorns>Utes
Michigan>Utes
Ohio State>Utes |
|
|
Utes are PWNAGE. We HAVE beat Michigan and most of the powerhouses have EASY skeds |
|
|
Big deal.
Colorado has beat Nebraska and Nebraska is 10 times better. |

I know. It isnt talked about like Pac-10 or SEC or Big 10. |
|
|
It is a pretty decent conference actually. 2010 looks HARD for us, mainly in November, where we play Air Force, Norte Dame, etc |

How many national titles again? |
|
|

There is a football team for the university where Air Force training people come out of, called the Falcons, and they have been pretty good recently |
