MARK MY WORDS!!!
Let's go, Cougars! Make us proud!
Are you the same Nostradamus that's been saying BYU would lose 3-4 it's four final games, lose at CSU AND get blown out by 20 at Utah?
If so, keep em coming. Proving you wrong is pretty easy with this team. Go Cougs!
Just think, in less then 32 hours from now all Kewg fans will be shivering in a fetal ball after another soul crushing ONE AND DONE.
Utes: None and done. But at least you have the NIT, right? Oh wait, you weren't invited to that either. Because your team is AWFUL!
But keep talking trash Ute fans. It becomes funnier by the minute.
It'd be like the New Jersey Nets fans watching the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA finals, and talking trash that they'll lose. It's laughable, really.
OK Mr. 1 etc, post your name so we can let you have it personally when you are proved wrong. We can't mark your words if we don't know who you are. Anonymity is easy - back it up if you believe it.
"Are you the same Nostradamus that's been saying BYU would lose 3-4 it's four final games, lose at CSU AND get blown out by 20 at Utah?"
Or was he the person who predicted the home lose to NM and the tournament drumming to UNLV (again)..
Yes, keep it coming!
MARK MY WORDS, Utes!
I don't remember BYU getting "drummed" by UNLV in the Tournament. I remember a game that came down to the final seconds and a close loss.
"I don't remember BYU getting "drummed" by UNLV in the Tournament. I remember a game that came down to the final seconds and a close loss."
Well I amazed that you “remember” a BYU lose Based on most of post over this season it would be easy to conclude that BYU has never lost, Won the MWC Championship & Tournament and has been given the NCAA tournament trophy. It’s just not in the Kewgar DNA in acknowledge defeat and certainly out of the realm of possibility to give credit to a winning opponent.
Max Hale was right (in reverse)
It must be hard being a yewt when the only thing you have to cheer for is against BYU. I'm sorry Utah, but you are irrelevant this season and no matter how many times you annonynously post "1 and done" on a BYU article, it won't change the fact that your sorry sub-500 program didn't even make the CBI. If you weren't such pathetic haters then you might enjoy cheering for the MWC teams who are playing in the post season (there are four in the NCAAs you know).
What will the Yewts hang their hat on after we end the streak and beat Florida? I love how pathetic their program has become. Whine on Yewts
a loss on the starting time!
But you can blame it on the fact that BYU has had to play weak sisters like utha in conference play and is, therfore, not as prepared for good competition as they would have been if the running ewes were not on our schedule.
Go read the article about who the Utes play in the tournament. Oops. Sorry, I forgot. Better one and done than none and done.
BYU is a 4 1/2 point favorite to beat Florida in their opening round game.
Utah State is a 2 1/2 point underdog to beat Texas A&M in their opening round game.
Utah is a gazillion point underdog to win their opening round game.
As a BYU fan, I'll take BYU's chances, or even Utah State's chances, over Utah's chances...
ANYDAY!
Regardless of what happens in this year's tournament, however, BYU (29-5) has still won 7 of the last 8 over Utah (14-17), including that 20-point spanking less than a month ago.
As a public service, the title of the related Utah basketball article is:
"For fourth time in five years, Utes expect no games in NCAA Tournament"
"But you can blame it on the fact that BYU has had to play weak sisters like utha in conference"
So when the Kewgars lose on Thursday the blame should be pointed at the Utes LOL!!!!!!!!!!
Just when I thought I heard all the zoobie excuses (bad calls, tummy ache, Vegas tournament conspiracy, victims) you came up with another classic. You have about 20 hours to come up with a few more gems!
I'm glad the Uties aren't just focused on the success they have had in the past. So many are now predicting the future.
I can't wait for the game tomorrow. I am feeling the madness. Go Cougs!
No, I won't mark your words. Win or lose this is a 2010 Cougar team and they are not history majors. Try none and done.
What we are seeing with the recent behavior of Ute fans is nothing more than the death throws of an expiring program. It is to be expected, and yet is so infinitely sad, that a dying program such as the U of U basketball team will engage in wild, erratic behavior as it wheezes its last, labored breaths. They are to be pitied, and it would do us all good to consider them through a lens of compassion and understanding. "Fairwell little brother, 'till we meet on the other side!"
