My buddy who is a Ute fan just called me and said that he turned off the TV after OSU scored their last TD. Bwahahahahahahaha....

Good for him. He only missed a great ending. He won't have that wasting his time for the day so he can concentrate on work.

My only point has ever been that before we start getting down on Utah for no blowing the doors off other good teams (but winning), lets see BYU handle a good team.
Bump.

Utah is playing much better right now and these penalties are horseshit.

Does the magic get thinner and thinner the further BYU travels from Provo?

Provo: blowout wins
Logan: win, but not nearly as large
Las Vegas: one point win
Seattle: one point win
Los Angeles: loss
Tulsa: loss

Is Fort Worth next?

Don't say that. No road game is closer to Provo than the Utes. You're gonna jinx everything.
