Comments about ‘Utah Utes football: Whittingham, rivals say feuds are over’

"16-0 in conference... we will continue to show you on the field how we are the superior team in the state."

TDS beat Utes on a last play and got lucky on a 4th down at home and you call that a superior team? Props to the wins and MWC championships but I bet you would trade those for a BCS game.

TDS is not much better then the Utes. Superior team was the Utes in 2004, the TDS the last 2 years is good but Utes aren't shaking in their cleats.

"Bronco v. Whitt records speak for themselves...You clearly do belong with the big boys!"

Yes, the Utes are the best team in the State over last 10 years. We made history to play with the "big boys" in 2004... TDS made history by winning against a bad Ute team on the last play of the game in 2005.

Utes have played bad the last 2 years and the fact is the TDS has barly beat them. Now when Utes in 2003 and 2004 were playing better how did the TDS fair in those games?

The Utes always lose to Kentucky, not North Carolina.

"Yes, the Utes are the best team in the State over last 10 years."

Last 10 years = 2003 + 2004???

A very good Utah team (10-2) barely beating a very bad BYU team (5-6), 3-0, is ignored, but a couple of very good BYU teams (11-2, 11-2) barely beating a couple of good Utah teams (9-4, 8-5), 17-10, 33-31, is a big deal???

Re: Re: Laugh a Minute ...

The Utes were clearly the superior team in 2004. No argument there. By the way, where's your Superior coach now?

If Kyle had been your coach the past 10 years, I'd let you include Utah's performance in the last decade. However, Kyle v. Bronco is the only thing that is relevant now. If you want to delve into the past, good luck. Let's look at the last 20-30 years then.

Utes go undefeated and finish 4th in rankings. BYU goes undefeated and wins national championship. Who cares? None of it matters now.

Utah was the better team in 2003 -- and yet they still only beat BYU by 3 points when the Cougars were playing a 3rd string QB who couldn't complete a pass longer than 5 yards. You want to build a case of superiority on that?

Your luck argument is simply an excuse for unintelligent play and coaching. Kyle/Gary's drop-9-men-into-pass-defense ploy worked on the last play in 2005. They were stupid to try it again in 2006. Letting the receiver get behind you on 4th and 18 is just dumb. Saint Urban even said there is no such thing as luck.

Hey, Utah -- U-Haul called and they want their U back. (U-Haul, the official sponsor of Utah football. Urban Meyer called them to move his carbetbags. Chuck Stobart, Jim Fassel, Ron McBride were all forced to give them a call.)

The Ute Indian tribe called, and they want their mascot and logo back.

Nice uni recall, too. Because everyone knows how intimidating it is to display the word "MUSS" on your basketball uniforms. Whoa! Now that that's on there, I'm sure those punk Wyo Cowboys won't throw some meaningless facial slam in your grills at the end of the games this year, all so your coach can go ballistic and make a fool out of himself.

What is it with Utah coaches and poor public sportsmanship anyways? Get a grip, guys! It's only sports.

Utah's 7-game win streak in bowls is great, but the competition was pretty weak. BYU had a poor bowl showing against much better competition.

Utah had one very good year and one exceptional year versus 3 very good years for BYU.

Overall, the teams played fairly evenly the last decade, with maybe a slight edge to BYU with more ranked teams and more conference titles.

Get real Kyle, everyone hates you and your team. Revenge in Laramie!!!!!!!!!!

you kitty-kats are out-of-control. Spin, spin, spin. LOL!!

Ok so I'm really curious...what IS byu's record vs unlv in provo?

Ok so I'm really curious...what IS utah's record vs MWC teams the last 2 years?
SCOREBOARD!!!!!!!

BYU is 12-3 overall vs. UNLV.

BYU is 4-3 vs. UNLV in Provo.

BYU is 7-0 vs. UNLV in Las Vegas.

BYU is 1-0 vs. UNLV at a neutral site (Japan).

Incidentally, BYU has scored in every one of those games while UNLV has been shut out twice.

Additionally, Cougar tacklers have never been ridiculed by the Rebel coaches after the game for "running away from" a UNLV running back.

Hope that clears things up.

overall record against UNLV, home and away? Please clear that one up, especially the home record. LOL!! BTW, just to help, I don't recall Utah ever losing to UNLV at home, let alone three times. At least not in the past two decades or so. I believe two of the kittens' losses to them took place this decade, alone. Thanks in advance for the continued humor. Sincerely, your idol.

When was the last time Utah or BYU was shutout by a conference opponent that won only one conference game all season?

Still can't answer the simple question? We're not asking about BYU's home record vs UNLV. Yes, you're right, the Utes dropped an egg vs a horrible UNLV team, and yes the Utes are going to take crap from that for a long long time. But the question that we're all asking is what exactly is BYU's home record vs UNLV for the past decade? Please no cougar spin

ok, I realize I totally contradicted myself. I learned my lesson, need to be smart and read. Man, I feel like a cougar...

I'll type this slow for all you idiot Ute fans out there ...

A win at home or on the road still counts the same in a team's record.

A loss at home or on the road still counts the same on a team's record.

The present counts more than the past.

You can go to UNLV's unexpected record in Provo this decade. We can go to BYU's undefeated record vs. UNLV since Bronco took over.

You can obsess about UNLV's record in Provo this decade, we'll talk about Kyle's embarrassing shutout last year.

BYU has never lost to UNLV on the road. Tell us, "Spin, Spin, Spin" how does that compare to Utah's road record at UNLV (this century, this decade or since last season).

Scoreboard. It's a beautiful thing.

I hope that clears things up for you.

I'm guessing cougars have a.d.d. because i just keep getting the run around from a simple question. BYU's home record vs UNLV this decade please? By the way, I really really hope BYU has a great year. Bronco is a great coach. He's done wonderful things with the Cougars program and as far as I'm concerned (I'm a die hard Ute fan by the way) he deserves every bit of credit he gets. But I hope that 1 loss comes up at RES.


GO UTES!!!!
