    I can find BYU and the 1984 Holiday Bowl on THIS list, though:

      I think its posts like this that are fueling my transition to becoming a self hating Ute fan.

        Let me guess. The ones that occurred after the advent of google get more hits on google?

          SU, quit trying to drive Mr. Crimson away. Those of us that aren't jealous of him like him here.

            BYU's win over #1 ranked Miami needs to be on there.

            Edit: Just re-read your post and got the google search result angle. The Miami win probably doesnt help much.

              Try this test:

              Michael Jacksons death (appx. 57,600,000)

              Gutenberg invents printing press (appx. 40,400)

              According to SeattleUte's foolproof method, Michael Jackson's death is a more important historical event that Gutenberg inventing the printing press. Where would we be without CleSeaU?!?!?

                  I must admit an error on my part. Not being fully awake, I mis-keyed "invents". Correct number for Gutenberg is actually 63,300.

                  Apologies.

                    LOL...nice.
                    At least the Big Ten went after a big-time addition in Nebraska; the Pac-10 wanted a game so badly, it added Utah

                      See I saw something like this coming, its why I continue to look at my fellow Ute fan and shake my head. No amount of smart ass comment is going to save the humiliation Ute fans took on this thread.

                      I wonder if Landpoke will have me back as a Cowboy fan?

                          I suppose the first step would be admitting I have a problem.

                              I don't know if it really speaks volumes. The fact that 2 of these games were played recently and 2 of them were played when the internet really wasn't around or should I say, used like it has been recently, probably has the most effect on the amount of search results that are found.
