  • I think one is Utah.

    I think the other is WSU.

    Boise fans can't get enough of playing the Utah teams so I doubt their AD would do that.
    Will donate kidney for B12 membership.

        Is anyone else a little bothered by the "Thanks for the chance" part of holmoe's email? Maybe I"m reading it wrong, but it sounded desperate.

          Why is the PAC12 scheduling the Utah v Oregon St game as the 2nd game of the year?

            Why are we acting like Utah's little bitch? Why do you specify that Utah won't change their game for us? Is he hoping to get Ohio State's sympathy?

            I don't care if the reality is that Holmoe is Dr. Hill's little bitch, let's not go advertising it.

              I think it may be due to the ASU game vs Notre dame is scheduled for 10/5

                He probably called Hill to ask to move the game up a week. Hill Said he couldnt due the pac-12. He's just letting OSU know he cant move the game. Where do you get that he is acting like Hill's bitch?

                  Desperate? I don't think so. I think that he just blew off OSU and told them: Hey - I know I said we wanted to play. And you said that maybe we could that week. But it looks like it isn't going to work out for us. But thanks anyway.

                  Just a thought - but when you ask a hot girl on a date and you tell her never mind - how many times do you think you can tell her never mind and still have her go out with you in the future? So I took this more as Tom trying to nicely say "no thanks" while not burning any bridges.

                  But that does beg the question - if the choice is between playing OSU or Utah, did BYU seriously choose Utah? Really? Utah has already shown that the relationship means squat to them, why should BYU value it?

                    This isn't asking the hot girl out on a date and then saying no later. This is the hot girl asking if we want to carry her books to class, and you saying hmm maybe, let me check my schedule.

                      Because utah is a home game, and OSU is a one and done.

                        I don't see how this changes the question. I'd much rather trip to tOSU than play Utah, especially since Utah seems bent on killing the rivalry.

                            No freaking doubt.

                            Tom should send over a four year home and home series, and if Utah won't sign it, then don't play them in anything.

                            Don't sit there and advertise that you're getting bent over a barrel.

                              Are we talking about hot Elisha Cuthbert?



                              Or are we talking about short hair, kinda dikey, slightly more attractive version of Brigitte Nelson Elisha Cuthbert?

                                In Holmoe's defense, this kind of stuff is very common in game negotiations. You see it all the time when Team A goes to Team B and says, how about we play a game on a given date. Team B replies, that sounds great, but we have a game with Team C scheduled that week. Let me see what I can do. A week later, Team B writes back to Team A and either says Team C can move the game or Team C can't move the game. It happens all the time.
