Misery Index · Content · ▲ from 12
A 33-0 shutout, and the room still found time to pity Utah State and miss Britain Covey's returns.
What happened
Utah won 33-0 over Utah State and moved to 3-0, which ought to count as a pleasant Saturday. Instead the misery number climbed from 21 to 48, because beating up a rivalry you actually like isn't a thrill. The turning point was the shutout hardening into a formality, the point where the scoreboard stopped being competition and became arithmetic. One fan admitted, "I have a soft spot for USU and I'm kinda bummed they suck this year." Another just sighed, "I miss Britain coveys returns." Undefeated, unsatisfied.
What fans said
“Utah states defense is no joke. That could've been like 55+ if not for their quality Anyway, that ends our 40+ point streak which is kinda lame”
