I dont think this has anything to do with the The Quest. I think it more has to do with how high the expectations for BYU were going in to this season. Whether they did the Quest slogan or not the reaction would be the same. BYU was expecting to be the BCS buster this year, the team, the local media, the national media and the fans all ran with it and now they are very disappointed. Three years in a row to the Vegas Bowl will do that to you. Especially if Utah or TCU go to the BCS and BYU ends up in the LV bowl again the meltdown will be huge.
