    Your point? Hockey is a great sport. If you want to use your popularity standard it is certainly better than volleyball.

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes.

          No one can claim backtracking when there was none like you.

            He should take lessons from you and start using things like BYU Men's Volleyball attendance to validate a stupid statement.

                Track and field is also more popular than skiing. Does Utah even have a track team? Last I remember they shared track facilities with East High School

                  that would be great. BYU is already in the Top 20!

                      Soccer/Football is the world's most popular sport with 3.5 billion fans! Fact-checked & updated top 10 list of the most popular sports by number of fans worldwide (2025).


                      Worldwide, volleyball is MUCH more popular than ice hockey. Sorry.

                        The Pac-12 is moving toward a reduction in night football games next season.

                        That’s the good news for fans, teams and officials at the 12 campuses.

                        But the reduction could very well come at a cost: More regional telecasts on the Pac-12 Networks, which potentially could limit availability to viewers throughout the league.

                          Who is the best Wide Receiver in the pac-12?

                          In my opinion it is Nelson Agholor. I am curious what others think, here are the nominees:

                          Nelson Agholor (USC): 56 receptions, 918 yards, 6 tds, 19.1 yard per punt return (USC record) and 2 tds.

                          Bralon Addison (Ore): 61 receptions, 890 yards, 7 tds

                          Dres Anderson (UTAH): 52 receptions, 1002 yards and 7 tds

                          Chris Harper (CAL): 69 receptions, 840 yards and 5 tds

                          Austin Hill (AZ): 81 receptions, 1364 yards and 11 tds (in 2012, he missed last season with an ACL injury)

                          Ty Montgomery (Stanford): 61 receptions, 958 yards and 10 tds (very impressive in a run heavy offense, always seemed to make the big play)

                          Jaelen Strong (ASU): 75 receptions, 1122 yards and 7 tds

                          Kasen Williams (UW): 77 receptions, 878 yards and 6 tds (in 2012 as he missed most of last season with an injury)

                            I would say Montgomery from what I have seen. There are a bunch of good ones though.

                              Nelson got those numbers playing alongside marquis for a chunk of the season, which makes them even more impressive.

                                I don't pay much attention to the PAC outside of USC, but based on those numbers, Dres Anderson looks like the most explosive/dangerous receiver of the bunch and that even playing with what had to be the worst QBs in the conference.
                                I'm like LeBron James.
