    I agree with these sentiments. The DesNews is reporting that the MWC has not confirmed the SD Union-Tribune report.

    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."

      Looks like this issue is not limited to that BYU-SDSU game:

        BTW, I asked in another thread, who will be working the sidelines during our home games next year? I suspect we'll have the home team's conference officiating on our road games but what about at LES?
        My guess, either WAC or the road team offiicials. If I was byu, I would strike a deal with a bcs league for officials. Just for perception purposes.

          I agree. Get the Big 12 or Pac 10 crews. So long as it isn't the same crew that did Oklahoma and Oregon.

            Aren't WAC/MWC/B12 officials all from a pool that work in all conferences?

                Cowlishaw says significant deal for BYU guy to be in the booth. Need to keep replay booth as impartial as possible.

                Blackistone says huge deal.

                Adande says don't get carried away. BYU guy was only technician, didn't make any rulings.

                They all got points. Woody was already eliminated so possibility of fireworks was greatly dimished.

                That's it.

                  PTI now discussing.

                  Saying it was obviously a fumble and BYU people shouldn't be in the booth.

                  Wilbon sounding just like LA Ute. I didn't realize LA was so bald.

                    Haven't been following this closely, but this article seems to nail it.

                    The take away:

                    After this week, BYU looks like it has another reason to put the MWC in its rear-view mirror.
