Say, is that Jonny Harline running the BYU alumni flag out onto the field?
It must be, there's not a Ute within 15 yards of him.

The real news here is what is on line for the Mountain West Conference....
$$$$ and lots of them.
With a Utah win, we all get a few.
With a BYU win, the stinking WAC will send an undeserving Has Been in Boise State to the BCS...
Go Cougars!

I cant figure a scenario where the cougars win this game. They stink on defense
and on offense they are just offensive. utah 42 byu 21
UTAH | 4:33 a.m. Nov. 22, 2008
Okay Couagar you can borrow some money after the BCS game. I am tired o giving
our money to the COUGS!

Loser cougar fans unite - UTAH is going to own you.
Ute Fan | 6:33 a.m. Nov. 22, 2008
We all know Utah has more to loose than BYU has to gain. BYU plays in the LV
Bowl with a win, UT goes to a BCS, you BYU fans should root for UT, its good for
the conference and ultimately more for BYU in the long run than the game. To
have a team go twice to the BCS from the MWC, to dominate the PAC 10 speaks to
giving a automatic BCS bid to conference. Gravity of the win favors UT,BYU and
the MWC that is why UTES win.

Scenario #1:
No that's not a flag it's a giant napkin, and little Jonny is running under LES to get in line for frozen dairy products and Cuber tails. CUBERS your eating habbits are legandary not your team.
And look there's not a Ute within 15 yards. Oh, could it be, say it ain't so, Little Jonny is in the wrong stadium.
Your smack is old and weak, and frankly that's all you got....old and weak smack.
Scenario #2:
Oh, is that Little Jonny in the SW corner of RES waiving a white flag of surrender? No, it's a signal for the CUBERS for the fastest way out of the stadium, as the UTE faithful rush the stadium for the 3rd and final time this year. And there are no Utes within 15 yards of him.....why would there be.
Come on CUBERS, you "punked" Big Brother the past 2 years. Wouldn't you expect to get the noogy now.
I heard there is a new T-shirt comming out. It dosen't say anything about a quest.
It just says "PERFECT" and its all RED!!!!!
People of the High Places 34 Utes

To 04 Utah Grad,
If Utah is such a Football Powerhouse, why to they have to get a BYU Alum to coach them?
Where are all those great Utah Alums? (Probably getting ready to throw rocks at the BYU Fans as they leave today with a win).

Lets face it UTAH has a much better defence, but I must admit BYU has a ok
quarterback. Utah also has one of the best punter/kickers in the nation and an
awsom special teams. Over all UTAH is the better team.
GO UTES!!!!!!

Ladies and Gentlemen: Your picture of class and grace: yes, ladies and
Gentleman your Utah Utes...and their Fans!
Listen to them, read their posts, be lifted up in their inspirational humility. Yes, those same Utes who call BYU arrogant, those very ones. But you won't find a hint of that here, oh no. Read these Ute comments and find peace in their humility and class.

Re: Re: Harline's Righteous Twin | 9:20 a.m. Nov. 22, 2008
Yo, Dude, did you come up with those scenarios in between fillups at the gas
station? They should get you a pump with a spellcheck because you obviously
can't type and dispense at the same time.
"Habbits and legandary" -- Hilarious. Your elementary school skills are "legandary"!
"Waiving" a white flag -- why? Did the flag not live up to expectations? Did the flag recover an onside kick before it traveled 10 yards (See Whittingham v. Glenn 2007)? Did it neglect to cover the other team's leading receiver with 9 men in pass defense (See Harline v. 9 Hapless Utes 2006)? Was it supposed to defend Jonathan Pittman on 4th and 13 with the game on the line (See Edwards v. McBride Finale 2000)? Was the flag afraid to tackle UNLV's featured running back, you know, diving at his ankles (See Ute Defense v. UNLV 2007)? Did the flag choke today's game? (See BYU v. Utah ... SCOREBOARD 2008)?
If so, then yes, that flag should be "waived."
My prediction: This will be a BCS "comming" out party for the Cougars.
Here's a scenario you should consider: Stop letting your first grader type in your posts.

You can't think of a scenario under which BYU wins this game?
How about if they score more points?
Silly Utes. Mind tricks are for kids.

Good one!! Did you think of that one all by yourself? Sounds like you are a
little jealous Kyle isn't coaching the Koogs!!

Re: Cougar fan in Wash | 9:56 a.m. Nov. 22, 2008
Utah has the BYU alum who was smart enought to turn down the coaching opportunity to coach Kewgs --that's why we like him.

Wow. You Ute fans talk like BYU is 1-10. Get ready for a good game. Go Cougars!
Re: Harline's Righteous Twin | 10:42 a.m. Nov. 22, 2008
Your material is old. Go put on your "Quest For Perfection" t-shirt
and ponder what might have been this year if your "Cougs" had not let
you down. Harline is no where in sight and the Utes will shut down Hall.
Stop living in the past and learn to deal with the present. You shouldn't have to rely on others to make you happy. Just my $.02.

A 1 loss will never make it | 10:47 a.m. Nov. 22, 2008
Your crazy if you think a 1 loss non BCS team will make it. The way the system
is set up you have to run the table. Just imagine the BCS envy the cougs will
have after Utah goes back for a 2nd time.
Also all you fans that degrade others jobs I want to see proof of your BYU diploma and a pay stub that shows you have a real job. Until then leave the smack talk to football.

Lee Corso is a liar | 11:06 a.m. Nov. 22, 2008
Yahoo has Utah as a consensus pick over BYU. That includes four
"experts", Regis Philbin, and 77% of yahoo users. Lee Corso be damned!
Speed Kills | 11:22 a.m. Nov. 22, 2008
TCU's speed on defense kept the Cougars to just 7 points. I believe
Utah's speed on defense will do someting similar. Johnson will have a
great day throwing on BYU's secondary. Hall will have some good
completions, but it wont be enough. Utah by 10.
Uhh Ok | 11:30 a.m. Nov. 22, 2008
Where are all those great Utah Alums? (Probably getting ready to throw rocks at
the BYU Fans as they leave today with a win)
Some Utah alums ready to throw rocks at BYU fans:
Thomas S. Monson
Cecil Samuelson
And Grodaon B. Hinckley

The reason BYU fans leave messages on yewt articles
is because you are like little kids on the playground that bawl and complain when the bigger
kids push them around. You are great entertainment
for us BYU fans. If you would quit whining then
BYU fans would stop posting here. It is soooo
much FUN. Get it.

I wonder too... | 11:54 a.m. Nov. 22, 2008
Why you think that BYU fans should post only on the BYU article when Newties are
scribbling their best smack all over the BYU article... forget it! There is no
such thing during rivalry week as a "Utah" article, this is about the
BYU-Newt match up. Besides, most of the smack on this forum is from Newts!

Here's to a good game between both teams.
Here's to fans from BOTH SIDES showing good sportsmanship.
Let's hope the random BYU guy with his two kids can sit and enjoy the game in the stands without being berated by Utah fans.
Let's hope the same is the case for the Utah fan next year.
Could this be the first year ever fans from each side don't get in a fight at some point?
No, probably not. But here's to hoping....
Stay classy Salt Lake City! (Yes, Anchorman reference there)

College Gameday picks BYU 2 to 1 to beat the Utes today. Chris Fowler and Lee
Corso both predict an upset will occur in Rice Eccles today and the both said it
will be because of Max Hall!
Oh boy, | 1:28 p.m. Nov. 22, 2008
that seals it. I mean, those two are never wrong. We shouldn't even play
this game. Darn!! Well, at least we have Kirk on our side. Shoot!!
