Utah is not changing coaches anytime soon. We know what to expect from the current coach. USC has a brand new coach, so we don't know what to expect from him. It could be as good as Pete Carroll, or it could be mediocre like the several coaches they had before Carrol. So we can safely assume Utah IS going to dominate, because they have been dominating and their program isn't changing. USC was mediocre before Carroll, and was already losing steam under Carroll before he left anyway. So it's just foolish to assume they will dominate, and it's not foolish expect Utah to continue their current level.And in that same time, Utah had a record of 40-26. So let's not pretend Utah is going to automatically dominate.
Again, if neither program changes then Utah WILL dominate them. It's pretty foolish to expect Utah to go downhill, and expect USC to get better. Recent history has shown Utah is actually getting better as a program, while USC is getting worse. So saying we don't know what to expect from USC isn't the same thing as saying we don't know what to expect from Utah.Fixed that part for ya.
Utah is good, has been good, and all signs point to them being good in the future. They are not losing their head coach, are not losing a bunch of scholorships, and their recruiting should actually get better than it has ever been in the past (just won a head to head recruiting battle with Oregon and Miami). USC lost their coach, lost a bunch of scholorships, all their best players are looking for new teams right now, and their recruiting should probably be at the crappiest level it's even been at for the next few years. So it isn't as simple as replacing "USC" with "Utah" when you say we don't know what to expect from one of them.
