Oh and I'm sure I'm not the only one that noticed the game made Monday Night's "C'mon Man" it was the bad snap followed by Heaps's fumble throw thing that was him just "trying to make a heads up play" and so it seems it doesn't count as a bad TO (well according to his post game interview anyway).

It's Tuesday guys, you just crushed a NON-AQ team; It's like beating Idaho. Time to move on and talk about how great the Pac 12 is and stuff. Time to get used to being USC's bitch.
 
Wow I was going to say Utah looks good. But, most of those are really just a dominate defense overpowering a team that lost some confidence due to mistake. Props to the Utes Defense they look stellar.

We know we beat a scrub team that doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things. But the fact remains, we have a bye week, so this is all there is to talk about right now.

Oh, and we aren't USC's bitch. They won on the last play of the game in their own house. The time before that we beat them in a bowl game. I don't see how that makes us USC's bitch. I guess whatever it takes to make a BYU fan feel better after that humiliating blowout loss on your home field in your biggest game of the year.

Everyone take note: The way to defend against ****-talking is to talk **** on the thing you're attempting to defend.

Checkmate. You guys just got schooled.
 
Look, I understand it's not going to be a hard adjustment to be USC's bitch because it will feel and look similar to pre-Urban Meyer Utah football, you guys are used to it. Nothing wrong with 5, 6, or 7 win seasons.

Your school's AD gets more money, you guys pay more for tickets and get less wins. It's a sweet deal.

Some people say that your trash talk is courageous. And some people would say that there is a fine line between courage and total ****ing idiocy.
 
Yeah, but there's something wrong with losing by 44 points at home to your biggest rival and to Utah State two years in a row.




Zing.... Who's the bitch now?

Says the guy who just paid more money than ever before to watch his team get crushed on their home field in their biggest game of the year.

By the way, pre Urban Meyer Utah still had a better all time head to head record against BYU.

Gotta love the BYU fan who's smack is basically "You crushed BYU, but that's not saying much because BYU sucks. I'm only a fairweather fan anyway, and I happen to like USC right now. USC beat you guys on the last play of the game on their home field, so SCOREBOARD!"
 
Ouch.. I knew BYU was struggling on offense but Dayum!
118th in rushing offense

104th in total offense

111th in scoring offense

101st in pass efficiency

105th in turnover margin

115th in net punting

117th in sacks


And in comes UCF - even though they have had a cupcake schedule so far they are ranked one of the top defensive teams in the nation. Could 1-4 be calling?

It is about the helmet to helmet hit on Christopher when he lost his helmet in the end zone. Seems it's not just Roscoe's moral compass and living right that's better but his vision is better then everyone else as well. Here is some quotes

The Utes aren’t commenting on a hit that receiver DeVonte Christopher took dyrubg the BYU game that some believe should have drawn a penalty.
Christopher suffered the hit in the first quarter when the Utes had the ball on BYU’s 12-yard line. Christopher got his hands on the ball, but lost it and his helmet when BYU’s Travis Uale delivered a high hit.
No foul was called, but in reviewing the play, Mike Pereira, an officiating consultant to the Pac-12, felt it should have been flagged with a helmet-to-helmet penalty and that Uale could be suspended.
However, since BYU is an independent, it doesn’t answer to a league office, which normally handles such penalties.
When asked about the incident Monday, BYU coach Bronco Mendenhall said he thought the hit was legal and was shoulder pad to shoulder pad. He had no plans to punish Uale.
Utah coach Kyle Whittingham issued a curt no comment when asked about the hit Tuesday.

Bronco just makes it so easy to hate him. It was helmet to helmet. Period. Even the most devout Cougar fans I have spoken to have been in agreement. I forget the site (I'll try and find it so I can post the link), but the other day I saw this very topic on another message board. Somebody listed all of the Cougars who have suffered concussions since Bronco began coaching. The amount of names on the list is pretty alarming. It happens often enough with BYU that I think you have to put it squarely on Bronco's shoulders, but of course he's not going to be accountable for it.

Another BS quote from Bronco was something along the lines of if you turn the ball over, you'll lose to your opponent even if you are better than them. It seemed like he was actually inferring that BYU was better than Utah. He acts as if it will kill him to give Utah or any other team proper credit for beating BYU.

Oh well. More of the same comments will come gushing from his lips in 2012 after BYU leaves SLC with yet another loss to their in-state rivals. I sincerely hope Utah hangs another double-digit loss on them and then refuses to re-up for any new games. Chris Hill can site the need for better competitive balance in their non-conference schedule.

What a jackass. I noticed that BYU players are constantly tackling head first, with their heads down. I have to assume they are being coached to do this. And with comments like this from Roscoe, it just makes me hate that douche bag even more. He talks all this crap about living right and then looks the other way on an obvious penalty.

I am not calling for a suspension here. I would have been fine if Roscoe said something like, "Yeah, it probably should have been called. The refs miss some thing throughout the game and it evens out in the end. I don't condone dangerous hits like that but in the course of a game accidents like that can happen. I don't think he was trying to hurt anyone." But for him to say he doesn't even think it should have been a penalty is outrageous. Someone needs to make a huge poster of that hit and hang it on Roscoe's door.
