In utah. Most yewts are former or disenchanted LDS members who have an axe to
Grind with the church. BYU= LDS church, therefore they hate BYU. Utah is BYU's rival, therefore they root for them.

I like the dude on 1280 who just called and said he grew up a die-hard BYU fan

I don't care for band wagon fans. I think most current Utah fans are band wagon

They are. Once utah starts sucking again, they'll disappear.

I seem to remember Utah continuing to sell out RES after back to back

That's because they came to watch USC, UCLA, Stanford, Washington, Oregon

Are you talking Pre-PAC 12 days or Post-PAC 12 days? If the latter, then you are

Few true ute fans. Most are BYU hater's first.

Very true.

Inside of Utah or outside of Utah?
DesertBlues

Same. From what I have seen in Utah there are plenty of BYU haters first.

At the UT game we had some schmuck yell 'BYU sucks, go utes'. I called him out

I don't know if this is unique. It is lame, but not just Utah to BYU

Yes if they went to yew of yew. How many yewts are college grads though?

I don't believe you. How many people can't spell the name of their former city?

Good point, but if it is not underlined in red it is not misspelled

Not true in my experience. There are a lot of real Utah fans.

I have some misguided family members who claim to be ute fans

They only wear their U hats when the yewts are winning

"grew up" a BYU fan. Doesn't sound like he went to BYU. Probably harder to switch after

I have nothing against band wagon fans.

I have a feeling that as more and more kids from BYU come from out of state
nephicoug
10/16/17 8:09am
No BYU fan would switch to Utah
Brigham
10/16/17 8:10am
Agreed. Pathetic if true.
Cougstreak
10/16/17 8:25am
I could see switching to Boise, Wash St, Oregon, an AZ, CA, or CO. Not Utah.

I agree with you in theory, but it's been happening in Utah for 10-15 yrs now

The point you missed is.. those were NEVER BYU fans to begin with.

Most BYU alums I know, who watch football consistently, are now NOT BYU fans.

They are correct but you don't switch teams

Why not?

Dumb, but the cold hard truth is that Utah football is much more interesting.

Agree with you both, but to switch to the rival school. Follow someone else....

johnnycarson

Solution: Don't live in Utah and see real college football (SC, NC, FL, etc.)
CObluezone
10/17/17 8:21am
Exactly. Add TX, midwest (Michigan, ND, Ohio State) places to see a game.
Cougstreak
10/17/17 8:47am
I don't believe the guy. Liar.... If you're a big enough sports fan that you're on 1280, you don't switch to your rival.

If you are just a fan of the football I get this

He is a life long UU fan and thinks he is having fun by trying to show BYU fans are leaving the gold.

It's true and an interesting phenomenon to me.

Maybe you have to have also grown up a Charger fan, like us, to get this.

Most likely a yewt calling in pretending he was a Y fan to try and hurt BYU.

I thought all Utah fans are former die-hard BYU fans, no?

I know many people like this - BYU was their fave as kid, they attended Utah
