I have myself quite a conundrum. In order for the voters to excuse our loss (since we're not USC), I need Texas to keep winning. But in order to have a shot at the Big 12 South, I need Texas to lose twice. What to do, what to do...

When in doubt hope for harm to the rival.

Yeah, but it's UT versus Oklahoma State! Where's the lesser of the evils in that one?

Oklahoma State, are chihuahuas, compared to the Horns as Dobermans. You need to reign in the Doberman, because you can alway kick the Chihuahua.

This is one of those rare "win-win" games, as far as I'm concerned. I sit back and watch, not really caring what happens, becuase either way, it's a win for BYU. If TCU wins, i will find joy in seeing the Utes lose. If Utah wins, i'll find joy in knowing that a measure of BYU's destiny was just placed back in its own hands.

If they get out of that game, then we'll see.

I was at the U game on Saturday and they're advertising the Blackout against TCU in fullforce. Workers wearing buttons, advertisments on the JumboTron. That's smart marketing for their next home and 1st ever blackout.

A lot of the fans are thinking that a UNM win is a foregone conclusion. A lot of BYU fans made the same mistake leading up to the TCU and Utah games.

UNM is a big time trap game for them, and given their history of struggling down in Albuquerque that game is anything but a gimme.
No way in Hell am I wearing black to a Ute game.

The TCU icon was supposed to be retired on Sunday night, but it continued to irritate the right people so it has remained. It will stay in place until Friday, when it will be replaced with a UNLV icon.

If TCU beats Utah as well, I will be enjoying a karmic chuckle at your expense.

You have to actually go to a Ute game first.
