Quote:

Why is it hard to believe we Utah fans don't want to play our FORMER rival? We divorced them when we earned a better partnership in the Pac-12. Yes, we still dislike BYU, but we are better than they are and affiliating with them by playing in a bowl game only reinforces the belief of some people (like you, apparently) that we are on the same level. We are not.

Lame. Utah and its fans are garbage. I don't care if they have better players, coaches or whatever. They're trash. Garbage. Crappy school and mostly crappy people. I wouldn't want anything to do with that school or that fanbase.

Seems like I surrounded by just as many Utah alums and fans as BYU fans.

My SP is one. My recently released Bishop is another. Prominent member of my ward is another.

BYU is very cosmopolitan compared to U of U when it comes to who actually attends. BYU gets students from all across the country.

I wonder if some of these are actually BYU fans trolling as Ute fans.

Although it seems that most Ute fans on the internet were pretty upset about playing BYU. At least so I was told on Cougarboard.

This is horrible of me. But I am in fact a horrible person. Anyway, part of me would laugh so hard if BYU were trounced by Utah. Destroyed. And we'd see Bronco slink off the field. Or even better, carried off by his players in defeat.

And that would sum up the vast majority of the Bronco era. Losing the big, important games.

It would remind BYU fans what we have. And what the gap is.

That would be great!!!

Maybe BYU fans can understand why the coaches bolted to be staffed at an ACC school. Then they wouldn't be so butt-hurt and indignant.
