    Roy Jefferson and Manny Fernandez and Bob Trumpy and all those guys who went to the NFL from Utah? And don't forget Ike Armstrong . . .

        When a Cougar fan finds through ancestory.com that Moses' Exodus out of Egypt was not a result of divine deliverance but rather an infestation of non-mormon crickets, you'll have your answer.

          Dude, the Droid's going back to the store.

          But to the point, they were riding the coat tails of WYO's '76 Fiesta Bowl appearance (28 years before the utes were invited, btw)
          There's no such thing as luck, only drunken invincibility. Make it happen.

            Don't forget the Wyo 1968 Sugar Bowl team. They were ranked 5th and had Jim Kiick, and lost by a touchdown to LSU. I remember cheering for them as a kid - they were the local guys. BYU rode on thjat team's coattails too. But Utah didn't. The Utes had already been to the Liberty Bowl, after all.

                71 is older. So is PAC. So at least I have that to hold on to.

                  B.J. Mathis, Karland Bennett, and Billy Skinner got kicked out for riding the tail of some BYU Coed.

                  Oh, wait - you guys were using that phrase differently, right? Sorry.
