No BYU-Utah Rivalry Football Games in 2014 or 2015

Man, I need to remind myself to argue with Conan more. My pos reps go through the roof each time I do.

Funny thing is, I enjoy most of the BYU posters in this forum. Catratcho, Thriller, Colton, and even Trout are just a few that I enjoy seeing jump into the rivalry talk. They're nice guys, It's just too bad they're rooting for the wrong side.

Did you forget that BYU barely, I mean BARELY won against a 6-5 Michigan team with their 4th string QB? It took a fourth quarter comeback for BYU in that game.

I'm sure this is normal Ute honk hyperbole but it was Michigan's #2 QB and he'd started 5 games that year including one where he broked Michigan's singel-game passing record (which isn't saying much actually).
 
And let's keep in mind the following season is which BYU beat up a Flutie-less Boston College and then wrecked Washington on the way to #16 ranking I believe losing 3 games by a combined 12 points (including powerhouse UTEP).

Did I go over the top enough for you guys... I was trying to match you.

Please grade my attempt to keep the thread going strong.

Were you talking about yourself being a 'tard? If so I concur, and thanks for the passing grade... but it doesn't mean much coming from a tard.

So I was bored, who cares.

In all reality, I'm just sick of everything. Maybe I'm just as Numb as you are now... I really don't care about the "rivalry" any more. We'll put a marker down so we can visit the grave site, maybe put a few flowers down every 3-5 years and move on with life. I know the split makes sense, but I'm always worried about the kids when a rivalry ends after all these years. They always take it so hard, and think it was their fault. It's just not fair to them. We should stop the arguing, as it just hurts those we love. I know your love has gone cold, and you don't want to stay in this relationship and you have been seeing other rivals. I tried to make it work after the cheating, and even after you suddenly moving out I tried to give you a second chance, but you are determined to chase the younger and hotter teams. I thought it was just a midlife crisis, but I see now that after all these years you never loved me. You were just using me to fill your selfish needs and get what you want. You are all about perceived power conferences. I see now what your true nature is, and I don't want any part of it. I will fight for the kids though, you don't deserve them after all of the pain you caused them.

Yes, still bored.
 
I will say this...

As long as the Utes have Wynn at QB they will struggle offensively. We all know he's going to break a shoulder by week 6. Just how many more completions into the butts of his linemen vs TD passes will he have by then? How many wide open receivers will he under throw? Will any WRs finally lose their cool and scream at him? Demand a change? Just how many more years will we need to see Wynn suck? How many times will he chicken out and chuck up an ill-advised pass because a defender came within 20 yards of him? Will that new freshmen QB be ready to take over for the injured Wynn by then?

I know of very few Ute fans that seem to want to discuss this issue.

Teams are going to figure out that Utah only has one weapon, and are going to load up the box with defenders to shut him down this year.

Riley Nelson isn't very good. But he's the difference between Dwill and Earl Watson to me. How the hell Wynn was ever recruited by someone other than Wyoming is beyond me....

Personally, I think out of the 3 teams this year one needs to really take a look at that team "up north." Waaaayyy up north. Anderson is a hell of a coach...

QB Wynn is still better than Hays. We had to make John White IV run for most of the plays last year because we did not have a strong throwing game. White was a beast, but our offense last year was pretty boring to watch. I think Chow saved us from a potentially disastrous season. Fortunately, Hays performed when he needed to, especially during the last quarter of the sun bowl. I think Wynn will do very well this year, but he is nowhere near NFL quality. Wynn was a savior from T. Cain, but he just has to stay healthy. We have decent backups behind him that have yet to shine I hope John White goes crazy again this year.

Basic concerns for 2012:
Johnson as new OC <<<youngest in the nation?
Wynn's shoulder

Advantages?
Defense
Returning seniors
Star
White and York are capable RB

If Wynn really sucks, I don't think Whittingham is afraid to quickly pull him off and replace him with someone else. <<<I think Cain was replaced midway through 2009?

I don't really follow BYU, but it would smart of them to join a league. I personally thought the rivalry was a blast and I continue to enjoy the Utes 54-10 win from last year. I won't lie though, their 1984 argument get's on my nerves.

Heaps was a clown, but Nelson isn't that much of an upgrade. I don't think Nelson can stay in the pocket too long, he runs all over the place. Unless he can go Michael Vick, he won't be very effective. On the bright side for BYU, I heard Tanner Magnum is pretty good QB pick up. Considering how limited their recruiting can be, BYU does fairly well.
