W 63-7 vs Utah Tech · Sat, Sep 5 · 1-0 overall
Misery Index · Euphoric
A 63-7 romp couldn't scrub the Michigan taste out, so BYU's room spent the night relitigating a win.
What happened
BYU opened with a 63-7 handling of Utah Tech, which is precisely the number a season is supposed to start with, and the fanbase shrugged at it. The turning point was not a play but a mood: whatever happened in the Michigan game had already drained the tank, leaving one fan to admit he "literally can't feel excited about this in any way shape or form." Another called that result and the field storming "disgusting." A 1-0 start, celebrated by nobody. Grudges keep better than box scores.
