Congratulations to the Utes!

Huge win, you guys deserved it. You came out and smacked the mighty Alabama in the mouth, and they never recovered.

I'll take the crap we're going to get from Ute fans during the offseason in exchange for the credit this gives to the conference.

I'm sick to my stomach with jealousy.

I'm sick to my stomach with jealousy.

Not all is lost. Just 1 1/2 months ago, many Cougars were talking BCS and the Heisman. It could turn around that quickly again.

Enjoy the credit for a week or two.

It won't be reflected in next year's pre-season polls.

It will be the same old usual suspects.

Yes in a mere 1 1/2 months BYU fans will again be talking about BCS and Heisman again. I believe late Feb early March has been the traditional time BYU starts talking about an undefeated season, at least since 1999.

And that's a bad thing?

You are so sassy! Rowrrr!

You better start getting prepared for a double dose.....end this season with a loss to Florida and start next season with a pounding from BYU. The Sooners better not even come to Dallas if they know what is good for them.

Not if you are a fan of one of the good old boy schools. I enjoy seeing Tennessee be top 10 every year.

You mid-majors are all the same...all bark and no bite.

Sam Bradford will likely turn pro just so he doesn't get embarrassed by Howard.

I read on a few message boards that OU is already looking at BYU film to prepare.

I can't wait to get the "over-rated" chant going in my section at the new Cowboys stadium.

Heh. And the best part is we'll still be top ten after the loss! <clap, clap, clapclapclap>

[HuskyFreeNorthwest]

In truth though a loss to a team like BYU is the same as a win over pretty much every other ranked team.

Good. I wouldn't want to see OU's consecutive bowl loss streak interrupted on BYU's account.

You know, the Emperor said something like this after the Goths sacked Rome in 410.

Face it 3D. The BCS is dead. Dead. Utah finally drove a stake through its heart. It'll be no more than a figure head from now on.

True, but the big boys better get used to having to deal with a Ute program that is a major player in the college football world. We are not going to be decimated this year like we were in 2004... Next year we reload (I say we even finish 1 or 2 in the conference) and make another bcs run in 2010 or 2011.
