    "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

      saw this morning that Wells is 3-23 vs teams with winning records at USU. can't remember where i saw it so have no clue how accurate it is. though i do know the only team they beat with a winning record this year was Hawaii - and as BYU fans we have first hand knowledge of just how bad good Hawaii is.

        They should have been patient with Kingsbury. I look at Ferentz at Iowa, the expectations don't seem to go beyond what is possible, put out a competitive team and hopefully win a conference championship or two along the way. TT seems to me they should be that kind of place.

          Note to self: Reason #5892 not to live in Texas is that you meet actual Texas Tech fans.

            Nationally there seems to be little interest in the game because it's a match-up between two 3-loss teams from relatively low-population states.
            We Ute fans are nothing if not confident, as seen by predictions of a Pac title berth four years before joining said conference.

                  Congrats on possibly winning the title of this year's WCC. (Who Cares Conf.) Hope you can spring the 15 bucks for a ticket!

                        No. BYU is none of them.

                          • Too bad BYU pulled his scholarship offer:

                            Once an LSU commit, then BYU, Dinkelmann landed on his feet at Navorro College after BYU pulled the offer. Dinkelmann played in five games this season at Navorro and passed for 49 yards.

                              Better a cougar than a Ute.
