Where are all the BYU fans now

Hopefully this will open eyes about giving non-BCS teams a chance for National
Championships. It was an amazing game. I loved every second of it. I am glad
they had the chance to play a worthy opponent.

I am so happy. Right now I have only two regrets: 1) that there were so many
gracious BYu fans on here -- it took me forever to scroll through all these
posts -- that now I'm sober; and 2) that I sprayed by baer on your
linebacker on 11/22. That night I regretted it because I had to tape that
bottle of baer to my leg to get in to the stadium and then it ripped my jeans
when I jumped down 8 feet over the wall. After all that trouble, I really
wished I had drank that baer. But now, I regret my act because there are many,
many classy Cougs!
PS: this post is totally farcical (except the classy Coug comment).
Go UTES!

game this season! Wake up BCS! The west is here to stay!!!

Dear Utes -what a truly awesome excellent Football game!!! I have never been a
prouder Ute Alumni than after this so called 'upset' victory over the
Crimson Tides!! Wow, what a total rush, what a solid and convincing validation
of the quality of this Championship Team, the only undefeated team in the
nation: -should they be ranked #1 in the US of A? -You betcha! This stifling
and unfair BCS/SEC elitist nonsense BS MUST change. Shouldn't it be about
athletic fairness, competence and merit?
GO UTES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BYU fans - quit hating because Utah is going to be the AP National Champion and now you have nothing to hang over our heads. Wah, wah, wah......waaaahhh!"
To 12:23 -- You do not understand sports. Be proud of who you are, and not who your are not. The game tonight had nothing to do with BYU.
Congrats to the Class Ute Fans, Ute Team, Coaches and Program.
Every Blue BYU fan I know was Pulling hard, and are impressed with your accomplishments..
Congrats and respects.

Apps to the classy Y fans. I had hoped for a win for you @ Vegas, to give the MWC the respect it hasn't really had until this year. A couple years back, I thought your program would fall off after a large senior class moved on, but you've stayed in the mix because your program has staying power. Utah's program has proven it's program has staying power. Four years ago, tons of Y fans were telling us to enjoy our one moment in the spotlight and how everything was going to the gutter with our coaches being hired away. As you Y fans know, success breeds upon itself, Lavell proved that. Our recent success, will do likewise. Our rivalry with you guys will continue to be intense, the way it should be. All we Ute fans have heard for the past three weeks, is how deep, big, and talented that Bama was. So losing a few guys on the OL shouldn't have mattered. Even the pre-game chatter mentioned how impressive Bama's practices were this past week. Caught them at a bad time...flippin' A my eye! Vaunted Saban ... no change ups on D? Over paid!!

"Max and Austin will be back next year to tear down your little house of
cars. We will see you next year, Alabama was waek and we would have won by at
least 20 from what I sow tonight. NEXT YEAR, and no you are no where near the
top five, keep dreaming."
Yaaaaaaawwwwwn!! Good luck to Zoobs next year!!
LOL... you can't even beat a weak UofA team but for some reason you think you can beat Bama. Go back to 84 and stay out of little brothers spotlight. Little brother is shinning while big brother lives in the past.
And you are right we are not top 5... what we are the only UNDEFEATED team in the nation. Can you Zoobs say the same?
Quest for Perfection was proven at the Suger Bowl not at the Vegas Bowl.

Another BYU fan loving the BCS bashing Utes.
And, as a member of the Husky 1984 marching band, but a BYU fan even then, I have to disagree with this:
"And by the way. In 1984 the Univ of Washington was the REAL #1 team in the nation regardless how the rankings worked back then.
I've had fun teasing my BYU friends for 24 years about it...."
Best defense by far that year, and i don't think I've seen the equal yet in college football. But the Husky offense, that was another story. Very unpredictable. Showed up for the Orange Bowl, and we trounced the Sooners. I almost lost my life arguing that BYU still deserved the championship. And they did. Go MWC!!

I said Wednesday, I had a dream thaat it would be 20=0 Utah. What I didn't
know was that the alarm went off before the end of the first quarter!
What a game! I am still hoarse, and I watched it alone on TV. Thanks for a great season.
Utah by 5! (teen) Death to the BCS! Utah is the only undefeated team still standing and just dominated a BcS superpower. UTAH is #1!

I am enjoying the insightful posts and the congratulary posts, here, but,
especially on a glorious night like tonight, I really have no patience for Y and
U idiot fans with locked horns acting like children competing for the high mark
on the wall. This should be about one great night of football for the U of U,
for the state of Utah and for the MWC.
Please leave the other stuff out, including 1984 references and what is going to happen next year, baby, when we get you into LES. Man, that stuff is tedious!
I'm a year-round Cougar fan but a huge Ute fan tonight!

Ok Ute fans, you had a good season...nevermind the patsy road game schedule or
the miracle game against TCU. After sustained success maybe someday you will be
able to establish yourself as a major player the way BYU has (in all aspects)
Academically and athletically. And all of you on here who attend Utah, you know
you couldnt make it into BYU. So sorry to burst your bubble little bros.
Give thanks | 1:27 a.m. Jan. 3, 2009

you can muster a great season. We even PAYED your way next year.

respect what they did tonight and all year for that matter. I'd take this
win over 1984 hands down.

re:No More Cougar Posts | 1:46 a.m. Jan. 3, 2009
um, ok, but you'll have to tell that to Brian Johnson and everyone else
that quoted Utah's strength of schedule. Beating a 10-1 team did the Utes
a LOT of good and is part of the argument for being rated the best in the nation
(in addition to your other 3 top-25 wins).
fanofootball | 1:50 a.m. Jan. 3, 2009
Big Bad Bama-ha. Had a big laugh at the FOX 'sportscasters' who
didn't know the names of Utah players the first quarter. When they
weren't talking up the Bama players, they were silently looking up names of
Utah players who were going into the end zone over and over and over.
FOX needs to assign homework next year when Utah plays in the BCS title game!

Way to go Utah!! What a night and what a game! I couldn't be prouder of a
group of guys. They played an almost flawless game and handled themselves with
great poise. Thank Coach Whittingham! And thanks Utah players!! No one who
watched that game (who has any understanding about football) can deny that the
Utes totally dominated on all fronts. They were by far the better prepared,
better coached and better overall team. The Utes deserve to be national champs!

I love watching everyone who bad mouthed the best team in the country eat their
words
the utes dont deserve to play in a bcs game. No!!! They deserve to play a team that is acctually good, not to take away from one of the best wins I've ever seen but Utah state's d posed more of a challenge than Alabama showed at times during the game.
Still waiting for someone to say Alabama didn't show up that's why they lost, or they lost their lineman, its alabama they have one of if not the deepest depth chart that still has talent all the way down. If they had all their lineman I predict 5 sacks instead of 8. The utes d is to dominant to lose to anyone, and their offense is at times just as potent as any big 12 team.

Congratulations Utah! As a BYU grad and a current resident of Hawaii, I am
pleased to see a Non-BCS team stomp a team from the "best" conference
in the country, the SEC. After Georgia beat Hawaii in last year's Sugar
Bowl, the whole country seemed to believe that no non-BCS team could beat a team
from the SEC. Utah certainly proved the rest of the country wrong tonight. Way
to go Utes; you made all of the teams outside of the BCS proud! You have my vote
for National Champions, not that it will get you much.
rvalens2 | 2:06 a.m. Jan. 3, 2009
In my entire life (53 years) I have had only two teams that I rooted for go
undefeated.
For Utah to have done it in 2004 and again in 2008 is unbelievable!!!
I can now die a happy man ...

Congrats to the Utes, that was an amazing game and way to come out and punch
Bama right on the chin. What a great gameplan by Whittingham going no huddle
right away and getting that lead to force John Billy Bob to pass.
I'm a BYU fan and want to apologize for the few tards that have posted on here and probably never set foot out of happy valley. Way to go lamo's talking about '84 and next year, awesome arguments. Give some credit to the Utes, they ran the table and beat some solid teams along the way. And for the idiots that say BYU would have beat Bama I say don't smoke crack. They wouldn't have because they would have played their soft defense and we all know how Maxine performs when it counts (TCU, Utah, Arizona).
So way to go Utes, what an awesome season. Hopefully you get many, well deserved votes in the AP poll. Too bad there's no playoff because it would be great to see them play OK, FL, Texas or SC next weekend. Maybe someday.

We are ALL proud of you! You did this one for the biggest fan you have ever had (JBW).
Last time I met him 10/2007 I asked him if he had "repented" yet (of being a Ute fan). His immediate answer, with a grin, was "Never, not a chance".
This is a lesson to all those Cougar and Ute "fans" who do not know what this is all about.
Sportmanship first and always.

Congrats to the UTES!!!!! Shame on those non-true blue fans that say this was
more impressive than the 1984 team. Tonight was the UTES night, not just them
but the state of Utah, the MWC, and for all non-BCS, and for the little guy in
general, but SHAME on BYU fans who say this was more impressive than 1984. BYU
won that game despite playing poorly, they had 6 turnovers that game and STILL
WON. The only team worthy of national championship talk was WASHINGTON. BYU
did the next best thing and played WA early the next season and beat them
soundly!!!!! Utah was very good tonight but had close calls throughout the
season. I actually think the greatest team was the 2004 Utes, they were
dominant each and every game. BYU was not dominant every game in 84 but they
were the best team the country could offer that year!!! Kudos to both
schools!!!!!! Congrats UTES!!!!!

I attented both schools, congrats to the U!!!! New Mexico looked better than
Bama! How bout that mighty SEC!!!!! Even good ol Wyo beat Tennessee. Wyo even
fired their coach after the season. It gets old hearing people worship the SEC.
That may be true that Bama would not have recruited any of the Utes out of high
school. It goes to show what coaching can do. Saban is supposed to be one of
thee best coaches, but that offense of theirs was very boring; up the middle
runs and standard passes. The game wasn't close. 1984, 2004, and 2008 were
great teams from the state. Enough said about that.

Alabama on both sides of the ball. It was a very interesting game to watch, even
though I had to watch it as it was being squeezed in between all those
commercials.
CheerTheU | 5:18 a.m. Jan. 3, 2009
Don't follow sports, didn't even know the game was being played. But
when I read about the lopsided match up and the results of the game, it warmed
my heart. Whatever the sport or event, it's great to see a team of good old
southern hillbillies get thrashed.
Football Fan | 5:46 a.m. Jan. 3, 2009
I am an Oregonian by birth, Texan by choice, and I have never seen a more
balanced attack (except militarily) than what Utah did to the tide. They beat
them in every possible way. I was at the OSU-USC game, and watched as OSU
completely dismantled the national press' cupcake. Then, Utah beat OSU with
little doubt that they are a top caliber team. What they did to Alabama was
simply a trip to the woodshed. No smart mouthing, just good old fashioned
football - settle it on the gridiron, let the whiners and complainers cry. Utah
is UNDEFEATED, and the best team in the nation. This was not a fluke, but a
precision surgical removal. Number 1 is reserved for the best, and in my
unbiased opinion, they are the best of 2008-09.
Turtle | 6:02 a.m. Jan. 3, 2009
As a BYU fan, I want to congratulate the Utes on an outstanding season and Sugar
Bowl win. You make our conference proud because there are few in the media who
give the MWC any respect.
This is some of the best defense I have ever seen played and the offense during the first quarter was awesome.
Hopefully the Utes will get some respect in the final vote...

"We're the best team in the country" said Brian Johnson. You know
what? He has every right to say that. The Utes have been impressive all season
and they ARE the ONLY undefeated team in the country. However, if Austin Collie,
under similar circumstances had said the same thing, you whiny Utes fans would
be all over him. So, congratulations to the Ute football team and coaching
staff, which includes part of the USU and KSU coaching staff. Ute fans, you are
still the lamest and most prideful fans in the country. You are fortunate your
team is not a reflection of you!
DennyG | 6:53 a.m. Jan. 3, 2009
Most of us in the MWC and the WAC have no idea how much importance football is
to programs like Alabama, Georgia, LSU, Florida etc. etc. They spend millions.
Utah and BYU literally get second pickings when it comes to recruits.
Even though Leslie has NO IDEA what she is talking about, this was a HUGE WIN FOR UTAH AND THE MOUNTAIN WEST CONFERENCE. HUGE, HUGE, HUGE!!!
It was good for everybody.
Nice to see some accolades from the BYU fans.
I won't stop smiling for weeks over this.
As for everyone else in the country that wasn't undefeated, to quote many BYU fans, "There is always next year".

Thanks a bunch to all the BYU fans who have been with us. I know, and the team
knows, this win was about so much more than us. We're trying to prove that
the MWC is just as good as the rest of them, and tonight the Utah Men showed
what we can do.
I'm a Ute through and through, but I WILL be cheering for the Cougs next season ('cept when we play them, of course ;) . We've done our part to show what we out West can do, and now it's time for the Cougs to step up.
Viva la resistance! Down with the BCS!!
