Haven't we played them once or twice in the past?

It's an opportunity for the UVU players to get totally stoked about playing BYU, play way over their heads and come away with an upset win.

Classic trap game. Smaller cross-town school knocks off the big cat on the block.

Meh. Would we really lose that many fans?

How does BYU benefit?

Random Walk

Offers a little local buzz. But what does BYU benefit from playing Weber State?

Epileptic Beagle

5/22/15 12:27pm

More to gain by playing Weber than UVU.

Random Walk

The difference is marginal.

Epileptic Beagle

5/22/15 12:45pm

Disagree. Weber is more established than UVU. Playing them brings interest

how interesting across the Wasatch Front is Weber St? I'll wager not very.

UVU student/BYU fan here. I wouldn't lose my fandom to BYU because of that game.

Will you sign an affidavit attesting to that?

Sure, but those fans probably already dislike BYU.

Marginal costs. Like ATM fees.

Epileptic Beagle

5/22/15 12:57pm

Exactly--just like ATM fees.

Everybody plays a few cupcakes, especially early in the season. Why not schedule

It definitely benefits UVU and I'm not worried about 'losing' BYU fans due to

I think at this point, UVU students are going to dislike BYU more for

BYU doesnt play every D1 program in the state

concolor couguar

5/22/15 12:55pm

They Play Utah, Utah State, and even Weber State.

BearsandBulls

5/22/15 1:02pm

BYU has played Weber nearly every year for 40 years

concolor couguar

5/22/15 1:14pm

BYU wouldnt have alter their series with Weber State to schedule UVU annually.

BearsandBulls

5/22/15 1:21pm

EKU and SVU wont require a return trip from BYU

concolor couguar

5/22/15 1:29pm

I bet UVU would be content to play at the marriot center...

BearsandBulls

5/27/15 9:29am

If BYU were not to give UVU a home and home like Weber gets

concolor couguar

5/27/15 10:48am

As long as they can keep it a "fun" cross-town match

LonePeakCoug

If it was handled correctly, it could and would be very friendly.

BearsandBulls

5/28/15 10:06am

Do it only as part of a state tournament. Maybe even pre-season

Cougar TD

I think a state tournament would be a great idea.

BearsandBulls

5/22/15 1:22pm

UVU is, more or less, BYU friendly.

LonePeakCoug

5/22/15 2:42pm

BYU is afraid of UVU, they are afraid to play in the UCCU center

cougaman

5/22/15 3:14pm

I don't think most UVU students feel that way. UVU doesn't have the same...

How is this a concern for anyone? Much ado about nothing

I like the idea of playing them as part of a all Utah tourney with UofU, Weber..

icecougar

5/22/15 4:05pm

I've always thought of UVU as something with potential for friction.
