Fans Keep it Classy
I loved that the fans didn't rush the field tonight. It allowed the entire team to run a lap around the stadium and slap hands with all of the fans. That little victory lap turned my 5-year old into a rabid fan after getting to high-five every player on the team.
The one thing that has always bugged me is the "overrated" chant. I would think we would prefer to think that both they and we are "underrated" if we are beating them....the U excluded of course.

Ugh...don't tell me they chanted...
Glad to hear they didn't storm the field.
Watched ESPN afterwards and it was all about how Texas laid an egg. Nothing about BYU playing well.

Re: Fans Keep it Classy
I didn't hear the overrated chant. Must have been a select group of fans.
I'm just a regular, everyday normal guy,
I can't afford a car, I use public transportation,
I don't mind, I read till I reach my destination,
sometimes a newspaper, sometimes a book,
the money I save, this stuff is off the hook,

We we in the north endzone, and it sounded like it was coming from the SW corner.Schmoe wrote:I didn't hear the overrated chant. Must have been a select group of fans.
It just takes one idiot surrounded by giddy little sheeples.

We were in the southwest end zone and didn't hear it.
One of the absolute lamest chants in sports.

It was in the south central and SW stands. Fortunately didnt last long. I think if the O doesn't go into sleep mode and scores one or two times more, fans may have stormed.

Re: Fans Keep it Classy
I heard the student section do the underrated chant, but it didn't last long. I definitely dislike it for the reasons you guys outlined, but I also think it's an unfair slap in the face to a Texas team/fanbase that was classy and was simply outplayed. I'd prefer to save that type of thing for the Utahs and Boise States of the world.
