    Poor guy. He is probably pissed about the tone of this board and is lashing out.

      Hang on to your hats, folks. You won't believe it, but Chet rocks a chinstrap beard:

        LOL.

        “That’s what I say, red on red, it works out perfect," he said. "And Nebraska fans are awesome. They’re treating me like I’m at home.”
        Well he is right about one thing... The Nebraska fans are awesome. They treated us like we were at home too. I lost count the number of times their fans would welcome us and say things like, "we are glad that you are here." What a nice bunch of folks. It may me forget all about that other team that also wears red, whats-their-names.

        Edit: I was talking with one of my new friends from Nebraska after the game. He was commenting on how well BYU played and complementing the team. He mentioned that in all the years he has been coming to games and watching on TV he couldn't remember the last time the Huskers lost a season opener. So I had to look it up. It was 1985.

          Had either of you been watching on TV, that piece of trivia would have been drilled into your head.
          Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

            Took pictures on the field afterwards. Last time I was on that field was to carry the goalposts off after beating Oklahoma in 1993 to finish an undefeated season and clinch a trip to the national championship game in the Orange Bowl. Pure elation when Mitch caught that pass. I have mixed feelings now as I am really excited to see how this team develops but feel awful for Taysom personally. He seems like an amazing kid who works hard and does everything right. It's sad when such an amazing talent has his body fail him so early.
            Great post. What a cool experience for you.

                  I think they would, but speaking as someone who himself wishes nothing but pain and misery for ute fans whom I nevertheless quite respect beyond the realm of sports, I can respect your position. Good for you.

                  • Love the video, Jennerstein. Especially liked the little tribute to Taysom at the end, choked me up a little. So sad for Taysom. But it seems as if he'll do fine in life, and later in life, he'll look back at his BYU days with that good mix of joy and sadness we all feel at times.

                      "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. 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

                        Yes, well done, especially with the bitter-sweet Taysom tribute.

                          It was much better live and in color coming from my new Husker friends... It was almost like PBW was there instead of back in Texas cleaning the church.

                          BTW, it was great to hear that Omaha made it to the game. I was sick when I read his flight was canceled. It seemed like all the BYU fans were down on the field after the game. It was the first time for me to see that wonderful stadium. We nearly missed our bus just soaking it all in after the game.

                              • Ha poor Utah, nobody cares. On Saturday Herbie said half the country doesn't even know Utah is in the PAC 12. The most compelling storyline from the Thursday game was the losing coach and a bus that was painted to look like him. your rival is the media darling, accomplishing something that hasn't been done in about 30 years and the most press you are getting is from a Richie sambora lookalike that flew to Lincoln to attend our game.

                                better luck next time, Utah. Is the Utah state game on Vs or PAC 12 network?
