    The data shows it is actually the reverse since BYU's yield rate is over twice that of UofU. In other words, a far higher percentage of LDS BYU students turned down UofU than the opposite. What is not shown is acceptance data which would indicate that far more Utah students are denied admission to BYU and are accepted and enroll at UofU then who are accepted at BYU but choose to enroll at UofU instead.

      IOW confused thinking leads to Ute fandom. We already knew this, of course, but this is an example of how it happens. I suppose I should show some pity, but I can't.
      PLesa excuse the tpyos.

          Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

              I appreciate the condolences from our Ute brothers. Makes it easier to bear the disappointment.

              Both fanbases have the same unattainable dream: to be #PAC12 POWERS.

                          He's crying. Poor guy. Why?

                              "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

                                Nope, pretty stoopid actually, And confusing: "6-0"? Utah is actually 6-1 on the year. Is he (or she, I'm not sexist) saying that Utah is 6-0 in it's last 6 against BYU? And why the pic of the Pac-12 schools? Overall, just a visually confusing production. Shame on that random guy/girl on twitter!
