Will BYU be the underdog on Nov. 27th?

What a difference a few weeks make. 
As the final moments of a nightmare day for Kyle Whittingham burned away under the shadows of "Touchdown Jesus"-- BYU was celebrating a 49-10 blowout at an away game against Colorado State, and feeling like they have arrived... just two weeks before the Holy War.

Again, what a difference a few weeks make.
K-Whitt looked like Charlie Brown after Lucy pulled the ball away just as he was going to kick it! Jordan Wynn yelling, "Block Head" at him was the only thing missing from this being another depressing missed kick on another random holiday Peanuts story. Good grief! 
On the other side of the Blue-Red spectrum, Bronco Mendenhall seemed to be channeling the great "Mickie" from the Rocky movies as his kid, Jake Heaps, made Colorado St. look like a side of beef! Jake pounded the hell out of CSU by throwing 4 TD's, 242 yds, on a 15 for 20 outing! Bronco polished up the look by running a defense that had 2 interceptions and a fumble returned for 6!  When the ground game sent the Rams to the mat with the knock out punch of 284 yards on the ground, Bronco decided to bring it home with his best Mickie impersonation in a BYU beanie! You're a bum CSU!

When Utah put on their cute little pink dress Saturday, you could only guess they were looking for someone to call daddy.  Notre Dame politely took on that roll.  Thanks Notre Dame, our Utes had been dropped off in Chicago and had gotten lost.  It sure was nice of you to take them to South Bend, buy them dinner, give them a glass of warm milk, and send them to bed early.
Unfortunately Jake's dress got a little dirty on the outing. Forget that, it about got torn off! He was hurried, blitzed, and he or his team never found the end zone... not in his useless 194 yds passing with an interception, or the ground game's prissy pink dress dance for 71 yards!  Notre Dame played a football game... Utah was trying out for Dancing with the Stars.
So the question must be asked:

Who is going to have the edge in the Holy War?


The underdog BYU team that has made RADICAL progress and is no where near it's ceiling...."Yo Adrian!!"

OR

The prettiest princess (Wynn) and his recently voted off Dancing With The Stars cast lead by a depressed Charlie Brown.

That's a toughie!
