C'mon now Cougar fan. Aren't you guys supposed to be the ones who take the high road? And if you want to attempt to insult me, please make it better than that last attempt so I can at least get some entertainment out of it.

BYU just doesn't have playcallers with any balls on both offense and defense. That's 100% the issue. And even worse, their head coach is a pretty good defensive playcaller but he runs away from that duty at every chance he gets.
I think one of the problems for college teams is that when they look around for assistant coaches that they seem to believe that they need to find the guy in the NFL or in high level college somewhere. You want Mike Leach, you don't want Mike Leach's O-Line coach that has no experience calling plays running your offense. Yet teams do that. And if you can't get those high level guys, go find some guy that is killing it in high school that understands that offense can be played beyond a 10 yard box or that blitzes and press coverage are not things to be avoided, and that actually knows how to call football games instead of promoting schmucks from within that haven't called plays before.

USC is -3 Arizona this week. Top 10 Arizona. That seems wrong(well right - actually). I think USC wins, but it just shows you that Vegas doesn't care about the ranking system.

Why should I take the high road? And how have I not? I haven't said **** about Utah except that they would beat UCLA.
And I promise you that was not an insult. I had absolutely no intention of insulting you, that's not why I wrote that. It was literally nothing more than simple honesty. It could be so much worse, so I'm grateful it's not.

Dang, I was hoping Washington State would beat Stanford. Not cool seeing that boxscore this morning. You should have to abandon your football program if you give up 30+ to Stanford. Mike Leach is going to get canned like tuna soon and then realize that his fate in life is to bring back the passing attack back to his alma mater as their OC. Andy Reid will be the head coach.

Auburn is at -3 for the MSU game........ definitely take 6 points towards State, we going to win by 10+.

Talking a lot of **** for someone who has more byes than PAC12 wins right now. But we all know, your schedule is just too busy to play games against in-state rivals.
Lil Brother fans riding high right now. But we all know a long losing streak is coming. Kendall will soon break and teams will begin to punish the secondary. Once booker goes down their offense will return to the painful 1 first down per qtr embarrassment we've all come to expect under Kyle McBride.

A few pages ago we were talking about hate. The truth is, the hate comes because of the religion. If it weren't for the religious aspect, the rivalry would probably be similar to that of Utah St vs BYU/Utah. But you figure in the religion, and the antis/inactives hop onto the hate BYU bandwagon and leterrip. It's certainly entertaining to see so many antis unable to put the church into the rearview mirror. If I don't believe in something I certainly don't keep taking jabs at it. Perhaps their consciences are getting to them so they must constantly bash something to justify the lifestyles they know deep down inside to be incorrect?

Shame on you and anybody else who approves of this post. If I hated your religion, would I hitch my wagon to the second most predominant LDS football school in the nation? While I may not be Mormon, over half my family is and a large majority of my friends are. I may not believe in your doctrine but that does not mean I'm not surrounded in my life by Mormons that I love and respect.
You should climb off your cross and get over the persecution complex already. I can hate BYU without religion just like Michigan and Ohio State fans can hate each other. I can hate BYU because they're my team's in state rival. I can hate them because they owned us in the '80s and idiots like you were as smug as could be. I can hate them because like clock work, every few years they have an idiot player pronounce that they are morally superior to Utah. I can hate them because many of their fans share that morally superior attitude. I can hate them because Utah will beat them 54-to-10 and yet you'll still see Cougar fans proclaiming that they "beat ourselves".
I could litter this thread with more reasons to hate BYU without ever considering their doctrine but I think your rant serves as a perfect "exhibit A" on why it's so easy to hate you.

Whoa dude! This rant was all because I scoffed at the idea of Andy Reid and Mike L. coming to BYU? Calm down Uncle Rico. You'll always have '84.
1:30 for you.

I hope Notre Dame loses today. If they win, the hype for Notre Dame/Florida State is going to be ridiculous only to see Notre Dame take a severe beating in the end.

Notre Dame is not a very good football team and is overhyped (as per usual). However, I pray they upset FSU. It would be a shame to see an ACC school in the final 4 in a year in which the SEC is so sickenly deep.
Seriously, that conference is insane this year. As of today, they have the 4 best teams in the nation IMO.
