Nothing like a little revisionist history to "prove" your point.

What the crap is revisionist? Those results are facts.

Loving BYU is like being in an abusive relationship.

BYU is fighting. Like crazy.

You go first.

How is BYU fighting beyond any other college football program?

For me, it's 100% Bronco.
