The Official BYU vs Utah rivalry thread........

[Coach McGuirk]

Jerome Brooks: "I hate BYU. I hope they go home crying".


Think the media will even care about this? Do you think Ute fans will think it is inappropriate and demand he apologize to BYU fans?

I could give two shits.

I will take BYU's future over what the utes have in store all day long.

Brooks should hate BYU.


What a whiff by Mehina. He didn't even know he had the edge? WTF.

Ok, now we are just piling on. The only dude on the planet who couldn't tell Bradley's ass was on the mat thinks it was the wrong call.

Absolutely right call during the game.

I said it was bad at the time.

And as much as I don't like the replay call I saw no angle that conclusively showed that Bradley was both down and had possession of the ball. I'm certain that he was down and had possession, but the officials were hamstrung by the call on the field and lack of indisputable evidence.

I will be interested to hear LAUte's response, he was certainly interested in commenting on any and every post about Max Hall's comments last year.

OK, enough time has passed. Congrats Utes, nice win.

I hope the era of holding Jake Heaps back is now over also.

[DapperDan]

Hall rarely if ever audibled to a pass. You really cant understand why anaerobic didn't pass when you're in chip shot fg range with a frosh qb against utahs secondary in that environment? Do you remember detmer vs iowa ?

When did 40 yards become chip shot range?

[Coach McGuirk]

I wish our players would STFU. And I heard Martinez got in Payne's face at the end. It's embarrassing.

Not just in Paynes face, he was pushing him off the field, until a coach got involved. But so what, no harm no foul.

If you think Wynn looked better after getting pulled, I think that is a statement to how bad he sucks, cause he wasn't better the second go round, and I say that with all due respect.

I could give two shits.

Oh, I couldn't care less either, but the way ute fans collectively got the panties all in a bunch about Max Hall, I'd like to think that they would be appalled by Brooks comments as well. It only makes sense.

I thought Helmet to Helmet was correct but I think they missed the horse collar on Wide

Same here. I don't think the helmet to helmet was intentional though. Just an agressive play that he got too high.

Its not embarrassing, its called a rivalry game.

Brooks saying he hates BYU is to be expected, you hate your in-state rival.

Martinez getting in Payne's face was stupid but the game is so emotional and physical and rewarding when you win, these things are understandable during times of elation.

They are 19-26 year old people, I know people in their 30's and 40's who act way more immature during rec league games.

BYU played their guts out. They are a 9-win team next season, and will probably be better.

Utah didn't deserve to get those two breaks on the last TD drive, but with all of the breaks BYU's had over the years, we were due.

Wynn looked a lot better after getting benched. And for whatever reason, that got the ground game going.

Question for those at home: the helmet-to-helmet hit and the possible horse-collar on Wide. Were those called correctly? I don't know.

BYU has a lot to be proud of.

Congrats on a good season

[LiveCoug]

Honestly, I was depressed for about 5 minutes. Now I feel fine. We are 6-6 and we played a helluva game with some very stupid gifts that did us in. No big deal.

[All-American]

Caught the game. Congratulations to the Utes. It was another exciting, down-to-the-wire comeback game. BYU's been on the good end of a bunch of them, and Utah has been on the good end of a bunch of them. Both teams have plenty to be proud of and to which to look forward.

Hall rarely if ever audibled to a pass. You really cant understand why anae didn't pass when you're in chip shot fg range with a frosh qb against utahs secondary in that environment? Do you remember detmer vs iowa ?

Chip shot? What game were you watching?

I agree. With the way the year started this doesn't feel like a sucker punch like the Utes experienced in 06 and 07.

I didn't think 2007 was a sucker punch.
