I really hope BYU doesn't suck this year
I don't think they will, but this whole 'raising the bar' thing sets the team up for some nasty irony. I guess 'cautiously optimistic' doesn't lend itself well to sloganeering.

is that the new marketing ploy, 'raising the bar' ?
can't they be a little less obvious?

In fact Utah's fanbase is dragged down by the mormons, IMO.

Truism on myself, honeychild...I call em like I see em. BYU and Utah are the two dorkiest fanbases on earth. The only thing that seperates the two is the fact that BYU has more fans and a higher concentration of mormons. The ALUF's have all the issues affiliated with Utah and mormons, but has an added flavor of chip on shoulder/cognitive dissonance of rooting against their Church owned school. A certain number can distinguish between the LDS Church and BYU, but many of the more simple folks are forced to convince themselves that BYU is not representative of the Church and actually a net detriment. Very few are able to just say, I like the Utes and BYU is its rival so I don't like them. Many mormons unfortunately need the Almighty's mutual approbation of the team they support and that the others, specifically rivals, are an impediment to their glorious devotion to the Kingdom of God. You do know that Manase Tonga's "I stop for no man" and yes my name is Rob Nicaragua, is somehow proof that BYU is hypocritical but yet hell hath no fury like the ALUF when somebody says to him that a Butte, MT Stake President arrested for enticing a 14 year old girl on the internet to have sex with him is proof that the entire LDS Church is hypocritical...... But I will redouble my efforts to become "endearing." Choose the Right!
