Here's a question for you...did Penn State or Georgia score 11 points in 1:29? Didn't think so...great analogy, brother.
By the way, tell me that the blocked extra point against an inept Washington team wouldn't have merited an equally jubilant celebration had the game been played at BYU.
It was a great game against a better opponent than you have played all year - even if they were 2 and 2 they just came off beating USC last week. Let's all be honest neither Utah or byu could beat USC. So enough of trying to down play our victory - your jealousy is so transparent it makes me laugh.
So please keep your "good win" and every other comment to yourself.
Is it me or does it seem like byu fans are obssesed with Utah football.
Washington has beat no one this year, At least OSU beat USC which was number one and still ahead of BYU in the Ranking the last time I checked.
Well, the Rush-the-field-Or-No Committee assembled immediately after the victory and conferred over the rule book. Of course, in most Rush-the-field scenerios, the rushing takes place after a Season-ending victory, or an immense upset of a superior opponent. However, it was pointed out that it is also appropriate to rush the field after a significantly emotional and surprising victory, as fans tend to feel an ecstatic sense of euphoria in such a setting. The committee did, however, rule that it would be inappropriate to tear down the goal posts.
Morons. Talk about desperate nit-picking to find some way to spoil a great victory. By the way, that same committee has already issued a standing "rush-the-field" go ahead for November 22nd.
Lest we forget who did Utah play in the Fiesta Bowl? Thats right a Pitt team that should not have even been there. BSU played a real team and beat them in one of the most dramatic Bowl games ever. Hawaii played a great Gergia team thats why they lost if Utah would have played a caliber of a team like Oklahoma or Gergia they would have finished 11-1. Before you downplay BSU win in the Fiesta bowl why dont you look at the opponents each team faced. The 2006 BSU team would beat the 2004 overatted Yewte team!!
And by the way After the way both BYU and Utah looked this week BSU will be in the BCS again. At least BSU will beat the Aggies by more than 21 points!
I disagree with you when you say they are overrated. Both teams should be clearly ranked. BYU is where they are based on last year's record kind of like USC started at the top of the polls in 2004. I don't think USC would've played for the title if Auburn and Oklahoma were ranked above them. They ended up beating Oklahoma, but they wouldn't had that chance if Oklahoma and Auburn started ahead of them. BYU is in that situation, but unlike USC, they will drop due to the BCS bias. If Vandy or OK State keeps winning games, expect them to pass BYU and UTAH even if BYU or UTAH go undefeated. We need a playoff!!!!!
