Game Thread: Utah @ BYU, Sat. 9/21 8:15pm MT, ESPN2

Just found out that Middle Tennessee State's starting QB is Logan Kilgore. We share a last name. It must be a sign. What does that mean for BYU? Cougs only win by 3.

In all seriousness, they aren't half bad for a team you just think you are booking to walk over. I can already foreshadow BYU fans whining about winning by 20-40(who knows what it will be) and pointing to Utah's 60 point romp over Webster State as evidence that we are the crappiest craps that ever crapped.

It was 63 points, thank you very much.

Go Blue Raiders!

Cougars, were you aware that these guys snort lightning? Be very afraid.
 
Apparently Taysom Hill is pretty safe:

Hill has completed just 40 of his 114 passes (35.1 percent) through three games this season, tossing three interceptions versus one touchdown.

Despite all of the statistical data that screams “change,” a move at quarterback is not even remotely on the minds of the 1-2 Cougars coaching staff.

“We are a long way away from that,” quarterbacks coach Jason Beck said when asked about yanking Hill. “We are pleased with where Taysom is at and how he’s playing, and where this is headed with the system we are running. We have tons of confidence in Taysom and his ability.”

The bad thing about the way they handled the Jake/Riley(and even Taysom/Riley last year) situations is that I think their takeaway ultimately is that it's better to stick with a guy, when the lesson should really be don't be overly reactionary with the moves, don't change quarterbacks play by play, series by series, quarter by quarter, or even game by game, which they have been guilty of doing on all counts. But give a new QB a decent chunk of time to get in the flow. But 3 or 4 complete games max, not letting complete seasons go by without seeing what you have behind him.

Truth be told, and I can't speak for anyone else here, but I don't care if BYU goes 1-11, just as long as the lone victory is Utah. That makes each loss against Utah that much harder, but it is what it is. I couldn't give a mule's right ball about going to bowl games or beating other teams, I really just don't care.

The silver lining? I probably get more pleasure watching the Utes lose all of their conference games than is healthy, and it really makes my season to see them miss out a bowl game. Seriously, I hate you all so bad. So, so bad.

Funny, this argument is the exact criticism I've heard my entire life about how pathetic the U and their fans are.

Former BYU nose guard Lenny Gomes on Utah and its fans said:
All those guys think that's all there is to life. But when I'm making $50–60,000 a year, they'll be pumping my gas. They're low-class losers

I never understood the whole 1-11 thing until now. Now that the U is owning us I totally get it and agree with it.

The only thing is, I've always felt this way. There are a few things in life that lift the spirits:

Watching the Lakers lose.
Watching the Utes lose. (actually, reading about it; I'd rather watch barf dry than a Ute game)
Watching Tiger Woods lose.
Watching Dale Jr. lose.
Watching the Heat lose.
Watching your mom undress.
