    You guys might be pretty good this year. We might be above average. (7 wins would be great for us, 6-6 may be more realistic.) It's too early to tell. I think BYU will win, but I hope we do. So we shall see!

    You are welcome for the foregoing sparkling bit of football wisdom.

      That sounds like Obama on Syria.
      Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!

      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."

        In other news, Suspenders Guy got hired on at the Trib in the Sports department. Call me crazy, but I wouldn't hire someone like that for my newspaper. There are sports fans, and then there are guys who confront the other team's head coach after the game. Keep him far away from my publication.

        Not that I'm aware of, though DH did have a pretty spectacular (and successful) trolling effort with me some years back when he raised my hackles by questioning the authenticity of my Dodger fanhood. At least I think that was DH. He might be aiming for a reprise here by impugning my purehearted curiosity on all aspects of this year's matchup.

          Maybe he would help. I tend to think not. I think he is one of the most unjustly overhyped players to pass through the U. in a long, long time. IMO.

            You obviously missed oxcoug's jackassery earlier in this thread.

              Didn't he also have a sign at that game mocking the mormon garment?

                Probably.

                I dunno. Was that him? Even more an embarrassing hire for the Trib if true.

                    That's the guy. Seems objective and not prone to jackassery to me.

                        Sure he does, but it's still him. The best was a couple days after the game last year when he was on utefans.net justifying his antics.

                              It's cool, fluff, I also ask for directions some times and in my family's tradition women also have equal say at the dinner table and have opinions on football.

I still don't think your line is as good as it traditionally is and I certainly don't think it is better than last year's with Star.
                                You are definitely underrating Orchard, no doubt about it.
