Its one of my favorites, and has been in my signature here for a couple years (see below). Bronco was actually my inspiration when I added it.

Maybe as a way to reward those thousands of us who attended the WVU game last year and the UVA game three years ago?

Re: Computer Polls 2016

Any chance that, with a convincing Poinsettia Bowl win over a worthy opponent and a few upsets throughout the bowl season, we make it to #25 by season's end?

Re: Tom Holmoe's Message to Cougar Nation

We are only indy in football. I don't think Big12 would hurt our ranking but enhance it. The Big12 coaches would be voting for us. We would lose more matches though. We might recruit a little better but the women get most of who they want of the LDS kids. Maybe we would lose a bit of recruiting fro...

Re: Tom Holmoe's Message to Cougar Nation

4 out of 5 teams are ranked in the top 15. It is working. Honest question....I really dont know: How many of those 5 are considered independent, and how many belong to a conference? Aren't we only independent in football? If the "it" that is working refers to BYU athletics, then I agree c...

Taysom deserves to start and play this year. No grudges from me. But man, this video gets me excited to see Tanner sling the ball!

Re: We're all UDub fans tomorrow

My question is, at this point, why would ANY active LDS person root for Utah over BYU? So what if three generations of your family went to Utah? So what if some General Authority went there? The U of U today is not the U of U of decades ago. Wouldn't you want to root for the school that is synonymo...

Re: We're all UDub fans tomorrow

I was willing to root for the conference back when we were in the same conference. BYU and Utah were fierce on the field, but the schools worked really closely with one another. When Utah beat Pitt and then Alabama in BCS bowls, I dreaded the smack talk that was going to follow, but as a MWC fan I ...

Re: We're all UDub fans tomorrow

Luckily the bond borne from being BYU fans transcends the little uniqunesses that give us our individuality. I can't wait to make some chili, and join my great friends and watch BYU play Clemson. We'll have to delay it by 1.5 hours so we can participate in the "Teaching in the Savior's Way"...

Re: We're all UDub fans tomorrow

For me, I will always cheer for BYU and for WHATEVER outcome improves the BYU brand and others' (legitimate football critics', that is) perception of Cougar football. I could not have written this 5 years ago. But I've gotten mellow in my old age. And I am really tired of how the silly (stupid, mayb...
