"had".

The day we do a 2/1 with Utah is the day I mail in my BYU membership card. Not that I actually have one. The figurative one.

I can accept a 2 for 1 with 2 games in Provo. Utah should as well, so they can boost their resume by beating a "quality non-conference opponent" on the road. Or, more likely, have an easy excuse for losing to a "lowly" MWC team "it was a road game and you know LES is one of the toughest places in the country to play at."

Waters, let e ask you a couple of serious questions:

1) How many BCS schools play and trade home and home annually with a non-BCS school?

2) What do you think of BYU's letting its fear and desperation hang out like it is? (I expected more dignity and opacity from BYU. I think it's only debased itself. Holmoe is making himself look silly, don't you think?)

Hey, I'm fine with never playing Utah again.

Utah = the new Washington State.

Utah is a school for Utahns.

BYU is a school for the Mormon Nation.

I've never given a shit about Utahns.

there are many rivalries between non-conference foes that take place every year.

Just count me as one who doesn't care to see BYU-Utah continue. Esp. if Utah are going to be difficult about it.
