ESPN dismisses Utah Utes as National Championship contenders despite big win over BYU: ‘They won’t win’

ESPN analyst Heather Dinich questioned whether the undefeated Utah Utes are genuine national championship contenders, despite their 28-20 win over BYU and a 9-0 record. Utah has also beaten Houston and sits near the top of the national rankings, but Dinich pointed to the team’s narrow win over Colorado as a reason for caution. The debate comes as the College Football Playoff race takes shape.
