AF must hate a lot of teams.

I'm sorry guys, but BYU fans are some of the nicest around. The percentage of jerk fans is WAY smaller than anywhere else in college football. People who claim to have numerous run-ins with bad BYU fans are the fans who go out of their way to antagonize opposing fans. I've been to away games in Laramie, Salt Lake City, Las Vegas, Colorado Springs, Logan, Annapolis, and State College (Penn St). I've never had any issues with opposing fans (other than at SLC).

I was somewhat concerned in Laramie, but left quickly and avoided Poke fans.

BYU fans are nicer than any fan base anywhere. Anyone who thinks otherwise is deluded and looking for the few bad apples. At other schools it's not a few, it's a bushel or pockets of bad fans.

Kind of funny that byu is highly ranked in both rudest fans and nicest fans. Utah is confirmed, they aren't classy.

What about Notre Dame and Nebraska? I hear they are the Top 2 nationally.

I think Notre Dame plays the opposing team's fight song every game.
I think Nebraska stands up and claps every home game they lose for the visitors.

Yeah, the poll seems to contradict itself.

I didn't see classy or not classy as a choice. ??????

The Utes will soon be playing "the most enjoyable brand of football" however. ;)

Wow, the other eight MWC schools don't like BYU? Huh, who'd a thunk it?!

This poll proves nothing other than the rest of the conference doesn't like BYU.
