"But no doubt BYU will be at the head of the charity line to pick up their $1.5 Mil courtesy of The University of Utah just like they did four years ago."

excellent point...

big brother is always taking care of our little brothers down south...

oh, congrats on the national championship and the heisman...

we will take our millions in BCS earnings and run with it...and you can keep your 1.5 mil courtesy of Utah, which is more than you will ever earn for a bowl game...

dude let me tell you some thing if it was not for BYU there would be no BCS for ut to go to so stop your talking. Robbie Bosco in the national championship pretty much had a broken leg and still played and won the game for them

you proved the point yourself. If your quarterback can win with a broken leg it shows the kind of opponent you were playing. a 6-5 michigan team is nothing to get excited about. Not to mention you have to go back 24 years to find something to talk about. I can go back 4 to 2004 but wont because its about this year 10-0 to 9-1. good luck the next to weeks cougs. YOU WILL NEED IT.

Really BUY fans! | 5:58 p.m. Nov. 12, 2008
Do you really watch your team play? How can you honestly say that you are going to crush Utah? As a Ute fan, if our defense was as bad as yours I would admit it. I watch the games, the think and criticize objectively. Its obvious that many fans on this site dont really know much about football, or they dont watch the games, and then come on and talk about how good your team is. Yes your offense is good, but lets get real about you defense, its terrible. Can you honestly say BYU is going to crush UTAH? Im not claiming we are going to crush, actually I think it will be close, but we will win cause of a far superior defense and home field.

I think the BYU game will be close for the first half just as it was in 04. After the half Utah will be so pumped up on the BCS and REVENGE from the last two years BYU won't stand a chance. TCU's O is quite comparibale to BYU's and Utah shut them out the last 3/4 of the game. Yes Hall is better at passing comp than Johnson, BUT, he buckles alot more under pressure, not as expeirenced. If I were a Y fan I would be worried about AF right now. AF beat UNLV and CSU worse than you did plus BYU is terrible on the road. But hey, you have that home winning streak still. Mendenhall has the new shirts for next year already printed.

1st shirt- "Fully Disappointed 2008"
2nd shirt- "Let's try this again,
The quest 2009"
3rd shirt- "We're better than you and we know it"


Go UTES and Johnson!!!!

I've been watching football for enough years - let's make our own "Keys to the Game".
BYU Offense - Exploit the secondary by throwing long balls. Paul Kruger and the Utah offensive line will eat Unga and Hall alive if you don't. The Utes have had some difficulty with the long ball.
BYU Defense - Run faster... It's your only hope.

UofU Offense - Johnson - AUDIBLE, AUDIBLE, AUDIBLE - ignore Ludwig's inane play calling. Don't need a 2 minute drill if you do that.
UofU Defense - Stop the long ball.

But if Johnson listens to Ludwig, this thing could come close. If so, the deciding factor is:
KING LOUIE. Enough said.

Make that a BLUE Crush.
