    Its good to see that you are still using your formal rival as a measuring stick. I do wonder how you guys will ever figure out how good (or not good as the case is likely to be) Utah is this year without playing BYU.

        Currently utah fans are hoping to get to 4 conference wins and are also arguing over whether utah Boise, or tcu was the best mid major 8 years ago. So I have a feeling applejack has figured out just how good utah is this year.

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. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

            No offense to Dnf, but the title of that thread is not only a direct ripoff from this site, but it also makes absolutely no sense.

              First that entire site is a direct ripoff. And creative thread titles in general are a rip off of a certain very creative poster that participates here. Last year there was a USC thread titled "building a Trojan horse." Stupid. Breaking bengals is equally dumb, if not worse. DnF needs to repent of his unfunny ways.

                I don't think people are camping out for Idaho State. I don't think they are a very enticing opponent.

                  Sure, while his participation is inconsistent, I guess you could say Harry Tic still "participates" here.

                    You could say the same thing about BYU pre-Taysom.

                        They are averaging better than a post per day in that thread. You can almost smell the excitement!

                          What games (other than BYU-UConn) are you excited about this week? I know I'll watch the BSU-Ole Miss game. What else should I put on the calendar?

                            LSU-Wisconsin in the Jerry Dome should be good. Also, Georgia-Clemson and tomorrow A&M and South Carolina should be good.

                              I would add Alabama vs. West Virginia and Florida State vs Oklahoma State to your list. All of those are national interest/playoff impact games.

                              My personal list would include the SC game, but that is not of the caliber of the previously mentioned games. Beyond that, Week 1 doesnt have a ton of compelling matchups, but at least the season has begun!

                                Outside of BYU that is the most important game on my radar for this weekend.
