Poor Utah, no one cares about their football team because they’re in the Mountain West conference. Did you know that Utah went 13-0 this year? No, you probably didn’t, because no one cares. Harris Poll voters certainly didn’t know or care.
 

That must explain how the team with a perfect record, four victories over AP top-25 teams and a conference championship can be ranked sixth in the BCS standings.
 

As Deadspin.com reports, several voters had never even watched a Utes game before they crushed Alabama in the Sugar Bowl. Check out these real, live quotes from voters who help determine the all-important BCS rankings:

“I did not see them play [in the regular season].”

“I didn’t see any live games. I just [saw] highlights.”

“I don’t recall if I saw them play specifically during the regular season. I don’t remember a specific game.”

And that’s how two one-loss teams make it into the BCS championship, and Utah plays in the Sugar Bowl.
 

Isn’t the college football system grand?
