Fusnik, what about ND did you not like? I really enjoyed my experience there. I hate Ohio State, so I am not sure if I would like it as much, but then again, I hated ND too before I went there.

I still think football in the south has a different feel than Pac-10 or Big Ten football.

i hate the irish. i hated that stupid stadium. i hate the fans who think they are great. i hated the weather. i thought the campus was overrated. it was just a bad trip. i hate the irish love they get, seriously bothers me.

watching a game at the horseshoe is amazing. the crowd is amazing the stadium cool, and it is loud. the pre-game festivities were cool and it has a very cool college feel to the game.

Interesting perspective. Were you also aware that this is the same thoughts that folks around the country have about BYU?

I'd love to see a game at South Bend, just to be able to see a game at South Bend. I'm no Irish fan, but it is the most storied program in all of college football. No team has had as many national championships and I don't think any other school has produced more All-Americans.

the irish are a program of the past and will never be what they once were. not unless they nut up and join a conference.

i could see how people feel the same way about byu. byu fans are generally amicable but in a lot of ways uneducated. i think utah fans in general are quite uneducated when it comes to football. we dont have a professional team here, football is not a cultural event, and women dont involve themselves in it.

i will say my favorite stadium in the mwc is res.

Is that Boise smurf turf as hard on the eyes in person as it is on television?

The only people that I've heard that from is the yewts. Most football fans that I've talked to around here about BYU know them mainly from all the great qbs that have gone through the program.

This is exactly what I experienced when living in Boston from 95-97. I thought that BYU had a pretty decent football rep, but most fans felt like we were a second rate program who had spit out some great QB's. Even the 96 season did nothing to change that thinking out there.
