The fan base is riding high right now. We think we are back. While I think, as stated before, Bronco can pull this off. By that I mine a respectable top 25 team again. Part of that respectability comes from being the top dog in a conference.

We lose the conference affiliation and it will be all based on how we play others. I fear how BYU would schedule. I am not a big fan of the play EWU mentality. WE aren't going to schedule like ND. So my question is, will the product we play against go up or down. I don't want to downgrade our schedule so a few more fans in Stake Centers can see the games on TV.

The other thing is, BYU fans are bandwaggoners. The social fans are the same ones who associate with Romney when he is praised and desert if he says anything that brings some embarassment.

I don't care what we say, we like winners. BYU finances the athletic program through money from fans. If we don't win and are independent, can you say USU.
