      Paul Kruger three tackles two sacks? Holy shit.

        LOL, none of those guys ever played in the Pac.
        Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!

        For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

        Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

            A very response.

                  Actually, it belongs to the U. of U. and follows wherever its owner goes.

                    Does the PAC get to vote on the issue?

                        It already did. It liked our history better than yours.

                          Like we're going anywhere.

                          Seems like the Sunday game wasn't such a big deal after all. I assume the jazz play on Sunday.

                            We went to the PAC-12 and our history followed us there.

                              Does that mean that Keith Van Horn is no longer the all-time scoring leader in the WAC? What about Jimmer and the MWC?

                                Only that if the PAC takes credits for the Ute's recent Superbowl players, it also takes Utah's football history. It is what it is; I offer no verdict on Utah's 50-year record.

                                Good point. The PAC did vote and accepted Utah. The Ute's have had a couple of decades of successful football.

                                As far as the PAC liking "our history bettern than yours", apparently you don't know my history or at least the team with which I affiliate (it's not BYU)
