Rivalry Week: Official San Jose State vs. BYU thread

[smokymountainrain]

This one drew an lol from me. Even if it is old whatshisface.

Same here. Okay, it wasn't a lol, but it was a solid chuckle.

Does BYU play SJSU in 2012? It looks like Tate Forcier is going to be joining the mighty Spartans and will have to sit out this year.

Yikes. How the mighty have fallen.

Yikes. How the mighty have fallen.

He went from starting at Michigan to now playing for SJSU. Funny thing is, this is a common factor among his family. Same thing happened with his 2 older brothers. At least this time the QB Force family didn't release a fact statement about Tate like they did his brother when he transferred from UCLA to Furman.

So Utah gets Colorado as a new rival, and BYU gets stuck with SJSU? I am sure the Spartans are flattered.

As for Forcier, how often to high profile QBs transfer to a school even close to the equivalent as their first school?

I can think if Jevan Sneed going from Texas to Ole Miss (debatable how equal that is, but he made them winners), and the kid at Purdue who transfered from Miami (I forget his name at this time).

The more I think about it I'm not convinced San Jose State is going to become BYU's rival.

Between 1946 and 1969 we played 13 times. This is a perfect time to renew what was such a heated rivalry.

I'm not convinced that playing San Jose is worse than playing Colorado right now. I wonder what their winning percentages are over maybe the past 5 years or whatever. They are probably similar.

2006 - 2010

Colorado - (21-40-0)--0.344

SJSU - (23-39-0)--0.371

Colorado obviously had a tougher schedule. They played 9 more teams with winning records and 8 more game ranked teams than SJSU.

I learned at PAC 12 media day that Colorado hasn't won a road game in something like the last 30 attempts.

The last time BYU played SJSU was 1998. It wouldn't surprise me if after this season we don't play them for another 13 years. Unless of course they have gotten rid of there program by then.

BYU and ND will quickly become a regular rivalry once each of the schools networks see the cash that can be generated.

Utah can have the Buffs in the Pack 10.2 toilet bowl. I'll take Notre Dame.

Having a tougher schedule doesn't mean much if you don't win any of those tough games.

I don't get you are you pro-P12 or anti-P12? This is very CB-esque style of posting from you going out of your way to diminish Colorado. I guess a NC from decades ago and a Heisman don't mean that much around here.

the greatest trash talk in the world... "the shitty team we play isn't as bad as the shitty team that you play..."

this post smells of jealousy. seriously - the pac 10.2 toilet bowl? notre dame is going to be your new rival? i don't know which of these comments is more absurd and specious.

FTR, I am very anti-PAC-12.
