funny

sylvester had high expectations....until harvey ran him over in the end zone.

What in tucket?

I am a cougar fan who says Utah has some great players including Mr. Sylvester. They are well coached and should do well in the bowl.

too bad

anyone else remember when sylvester got pancaked into the endzone vs TCU? hahaha

Not funny, and not too bad

Nope. Don't remember either of those stories, but I do remember him stuffing plenty of Cougars and Horned Frogs during his 4 years as a Ute though.

Go Utes!

Re: 10:43 p.m.

You mean like that one time in 2009 when he kept Harvey Unga and Andrew George out of the endzone?

Wait a minute. . .

sugar bowl

I do remember Sly dominating alabama's offense in the sugar bowl..... harvey unga has never played in a game that big and never will.

I vividly remember Sly making 2-3 sacks in the Sugar Bowl and generally terrorizing the Alabama offense while completing a perfect 13-0 season.

To 11:08 & 9:04

You guys just don't get over it do you?! You just can't give credit where due. Who cares what you think anyway? What did you ever accomplish? Fact is, both the Utes and Cougs have outstanding seniors who have accomplished much in their years, including Max Hall. Get over your childish comments. Go take a nap.

Amazing

the first three comments are from byu fans, two of which are negative. And they have the gall to criticize Utah fans trash talking on Cougar articles. Bunch of hypocrites.

Of course Y-ners "can't get over it"...they have a deep seated inferiority complex that is bred into them. They have never lost a game where the other team played well even if they were dominated...it is always a case to use "Bronko's" phrase a question of lack of position mastery. That is why they are Y-ners...Y-ning when they lose and arrogant when they win. It is why Ute fans can't stand them...will never root for them...If they NEVER won again...it would be too soon!

These 3 backers....

have been where BYU will never be. They dominated Alabama in the Sugar Bowl.

BYU is now the 4th best non-BCS program. Right behind Utah, Boise and TCU.

No wonder Cougar fans are so testy this morning.

Thank you Seniors!

Can't wait to see big Kepa, Sly and Wright tear up them Bears. It has been fun watching the development of Kepa into a big time player along with Sylvester. I'll never forget the beat down they put on Wilson in New Orleans. I'll miss the trade mark hair flapping out of the helmet and Sly's toughness next seson. Let's go Utes!

I love the UTAH players answers to the questions, and the way they go around answering questions. They are def classy people!!

Scoreboard!

BYU 26, Utah 23, Sylvester 0

tough to replace

Next year's team will have a hard time without these guys. Hope someone good is waiting in the wings.

Hawaii is above byu in the top non BCS pool. they at least crashed the party byu never has. so byu is no better than 5th and lets face it there are about 5 programs that can make valid arguments for that spot.

Congratulations to Sly, Mike and Kepa. We appreciate all the hard work and big plays for 4 years. We are proud of the way you played on the field, but equally proud of the way you conducted yourself off of it. Given the chance to run your mouth like certain zoobs up north, you took the high road and brough a considerable amount of honor and class to the Ute program. To Mr. Scorebard and every other idiot zoob who comments negatively about 3 fantastic young men: BCS Bowl Wins: Utah 2, BYU 0. We'll take that statistic over a lucky break in overtime any day of the week.

scoreboard

48-24 BCS 2 COUGARS 0 LASY YEAR UTAH 31 ALABAMA 17 BYU 14 ARIZONA 24, are you kidding me, can not wait on the morning of dec 23rd wehn all the excuses will come out as too why the cougars lost again to a mediocre pac 10 team, i am not saying cal is any different but at least the utes take care of the teams they are supposed to beat. Oh yeah on more byu o straight bowl wins, utah 8 wow, no wonder couagr fans talk so much they are inferior oh well, good luck next year without hall, unga, pitta, jorgenson and all your other all time zoobie record holders can't wait until next year when whit pulls a urben an calls all three timeouts at the end of the game to preserve the humiliating loss thats coming

I'd have to agree with you. BYU is between the 5-10 best non BCS team to not make a BCS bowl.
