In a system where they like to talk about rankings and a single loss being able to knock you out of the top spot, I have to vote for the Utes. Rankings are such an arbitrary and self serving system, as if the money that gets shared with the rest of the schools within your division doesn't play into the fact that all the coaches and media in that area don't vote to try to keep their teams higher as the bigger bowl game they are in, the more money they all get. Of course waiting 30+ days to play a game really doesn't tell you who the true champion is anyway, as in a months time too many things can get out of sync.
