So BYU puts out a pretty big bet on the flop by bringing out QB history, but is too ignorant to realize that Utah has the chips to call to call that bet. Not only that, through depth at other positions, BYU gets clobbered over the top with a reraise it can't call in a million years.

    Synopsis: If I were a BYU fan, I wouldn't make such a big deal about overwhelming success at one position. At least not to Utah fans. We'll promise to be as impressed by your QBs so long as you do likewise for our history at RB, WR and DB.

It was selfish of us to talk about QB prowess in a thread dedicated to historical QB's at BYU without also acknowledging the Utah Rb, WR, and DB's. Surely that is the first thing most think of when comparing our QB's to Utah's.
      I think it's only fair that any attention given to Gary Sheide should also include a recognition of Bryan Rowley and Chris Fuamatumaafale.

        This is a great post seriously, if anyone ever wondered why you all BYU fans think you are an asshat, you just answered their question.

        Talk about persecution complex.

        I can not wait until BYU has their tight end weekend and we get to hear all about Louie Sakoda, Ryan Kaneshiro, and Chris Yergensen being pissed.

          So I'll see you your QB reunion (Alex Smith, Lee Grosscup, Scott Mitchell and Pokey Allen) and raise you a RB, WR or DB reunion.
          That's some funny shit right there. Leave it to Pat to keep that Ute fan insecurity alive and well despite recent events. Didn't you hear? You can now compare your 1st round picks to USC and UCLA.

            Who the hell even cares about 1st round picks? All I care about is college productivity, going in the first round does not help BYU win games.


            Max Hall, John Beck, Brandon Doman, Brett Engemann, Kevin Feterik, Steve Sarkisian all start for any Ute team over the past 15 years except maybe the 2004 team. If one of those QBs was the starter in 2003 Smith never gets his chance anyways.

              Good thing the 2nd qb taken in the 2005 draft hasn't amounted to much.

                  Who gives a crap about who played at Utah? BYU isn't doing this weekend to piss off Utah. They're doing it to celebrate their own success. I couldn't care less if Utah brought back all of their All-Americans. It amazes me how insecure you are.

                    OrangeUte makes a nice post about BYU's QB weekend and praises the idea.

                    Certain BYU fans turn immediately to taking shots at Utah.

                    Who's insecure?

                        Is this a trick question because I was going to say you guys. I think you guys are the insecure ones.

                          The QB weekend sounds like alot of fun. Congrats to BYU's marketing dept for making it happen.

                              You'll see I wasn't the one who brought Utah into this. I just responded to it.

                              We save our reunions for when we bust the BCS anyway.

                                So, starting in 2011, I guess you'll never have another reunion. Seems like poor planning to me.
                                Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.
