You think it will be friendlier? I don't think so. Not in the short term anyway. Especially given it is now a rivalry between a have and have not. And trust me you'll wish I was Cougjunkie if you ever lose to Wazzu.Originally posted by UtahDan View PostI think the interest will still be there and will probably be friendlier. We still compete for the same kids and are in the same state. The interest will not wane. Think Georgia/GT. Good teams in difference conferences.

I'm not saying BYU gets beat every year.Originally posted by tooblue View PostYou 'the sky is falling' types slay me. Seriously.
I just don't think Utah will care much about what goes on at BYU, much like no one really follows what goes on at Utah State.
There are different interests now.

Sheesh, will you chicken littles stop with the Utah State talk already? There are a million differences between BYU and Utah State.Originally posted by beefytee View PostI'm not saying BYU gets beat every year.

It's in Utah's best interest not to care but they will and that is what we are seeing on the board right now. Furthermore, BYU will still get the same recruits it targets as will Utah. Nothing's going to change.Originally posted by beefytee View PostI'm not saying BYU gets beat every year.

What's more I already really dislike Boise, much more than Utah and I'm ready for a different rivalry. It's time for BYU and Utah to move on but the Utes will struggle to do so.

Based on the fact that you're so intent on pointing this out, I'm guessing that you will too.Originally posted by tooblue View PostIt's in Utah's best interest not to care but they will and that is what we are seeing on the board right now.

Whatever il Pad. But I have already offered best wishes to Utah and I'm looking forward to BYU striking up new rivalries. I'm excited at the idea of Boise in the MWC and BYU's future scheduling.Originally posted by il Padrino Ute View PostBased on the fact that you're so intent on pointing this out, I'm guessing that you will too.

I too think that the board is in for decline. And not with a fury, but with a wimper. I'm not particularly interested in the Pac 10, other than an ocasional interest when something interesting happens at SC. I wont blame ute fans for talking incessantly about their new rivals, and the machinations and goings on with their new conference, it just wont be interesting to me. I will be talking incessantly about our old rivals, and the machinations in whatever conference BYU is in. I wish the utes well, and I think they will do well. I just won't be interested anymore.
Starting a rivalry with Utah State wont be that bad. It will be laughable the first few years, but they'll get better. And they hate us enough already.

I myself will be interested in hearing how the Utes on the board are feeling about their new situation. I hope they will be interested in us Cougars talking about our situation.
I really doubt on this board there will be nasty smack talk about the two situations. I would like to be in a BCS conference, but I don't think I am jealous of Utah.
Now, if some Utes do engage in nasty smack talk, I will probably change my mind.

I think seeing have nots turning into haves and seeing how posters / fans change will be fascinating. Not just on the board but all over."It's true that everything happens for a reason. Just remember that sometimes that reason is that you did something really, really, stupid."
