Red Dead Redemption: BYU vs. Utah 2013

[UVACoug]

I think the problem is not in the communication, but in the entire system. I know, I know--we don't need another thread complaining about the HCO, but this is just another one of the consequences of externalizing moral consequences. You can't do it without inviting speculation.

I don't have any problems with people complaining about the honor code, but that wasn't the complaint. The complaint I was responding to was about the communication.

[Cougarmandias]

I empathize with someone who has to be publicly scorned and disciplined, but one good thing about Bronco as the head coach is the players should be very clear that obeying the honor code is more important than anything a player can do on the field of play. The player has no excuses when it comes to what he has bought into.

Also if we are winning I love the honor code. I love to throw it in other people's faces that we both win and are more righteous than anyone else doing it.

You're cracking me up, because I secretly feel the same way.

I've also said something similar but more recently than Voltaire.

I don't understand why people refer to this game as The Holy War. makes no sense.

Robbie Bullough tweeted this:

Vaughn Kimball would have been BYUs qb in 1942, instead he joined the Navy and was sent to war.

Before the Byu vs utah game he sent the following telegram:

SeattleUte: neither Seattle nor a Ute.*

*While there is little doubt that SU is not a large Northwest urbanization, my second contention may be more controversial. But given the beatdown Ute fans are gonna take on Saturday, I feel like throwing them a bone. You're welcome, Ute fans.

Don't know if this has already been posted, but Seniorits has been posting his emails to the head coach of each of Utah's opponents this season. Here is this week's email:

Senioritis continues to be the most overrated poster in message board history.

Senioritis should be held up as the gold standard. 12 paragraphs of rivalry smack with no use of the words "hate," or "F*%&." But still witty, funny and filled with zingers. He is wasted at Utah.

[TripletDaddy]

I hope to keep reading those each week. Hi-larious!!!!

I think this whole baptismal video thing is much ado about nothing, but apparently the Associated Press and ESPN think it is newsworthy:

http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/9691965/utah-utes-coach-kyle-whittingham-said-players-disciplined-apparent-mock-baptism

I have to say that the article doesn't make Kyle look that great.

[TripletDaddy]

lol @ Portland ute for believing the dumb explanation for the baptism video.

I find it interesting that a public acknowledgement by Utah/Whittingham actually appears to give some legitimacy to the BYU fan view of the event. Not sure that was the smartest move on their part.
