for Utes and Aggies to sell that story.

And it will take a long time to change that.

Completely made up by Utah and Utah State.

SoCalCoug

10/1/16 10:00am

Mostly by whiny fans. Players have said BYU didn't play dirty.

True dat

coldcoug

10/1/16 10:13am

But it is a complete lie

JmThms

10/1/16 10:25am

Oh, I totally agree. But that video of Nacua cheap-shotting the Memphis guy

dilbert

10/1/16 10:37am

You just made a really good case for why it's more than a Ute conspiracy.

Iman23

10/1/16 10:45am

No. The yewt lie is based on a fictitious pattern that is unique to BYU .....

JmThms

10/1/16 11:01am

No, that narrative has been pushed for much longer. I remember the same ....

JmThms

10/1/16 10:56am

I agree with that too, but the brawl gave the narrative new legs at the national

dilbert

10/1/16 11:05am

Which is dumb because in a brawl there is no such thing as a cheap shot.

Superman21

10/1/16 12:22pm

I don't know how you were raised or how you raise your kids, but brawl or no, a shot to the back of the head is cowardly

Graig Swame

10/1/16 1:07pm

Let's say you are walking down the street with your wife.

Superman21

10/1/16 10:26pm

That begs the question, why after the intitial jump, are you as a "man" sitting back deciding whether or not to throw

Graig Swame

10/1/16 10:33pm

So you take the cowardly shot?

Superman21

10/1/16 11:00pm

So you take the cowardly shot?

Superman21

10/1/16 11:00pm

Sorry I was just kidding. I see your point, but I still think what Nacua did was bad and it's cowardly in general.

Graig Swame

10/1/16 11:17pm

yep. unfortunately things like the emery punch and the ensuing cancelation of

ColonelMustard7

10/1/16 11:31pm

Not really, message over that was

Superman21

10/1/16 11:42pm

around utah yes, but for those in the national media who didn't look into it

ColonelMustard7

10/1/16 11:48pm

There were others who called out Utah too

Superman21

10/1/16 11:54pm

Yep--Ute and Aggie fans creating social media accounts dedicated to BYU's

Carnac el Magnifico

10/1/16 12:04pm

It's very simple - because of BYU's specific religious affiliation, any

jaba166

10/1/16 3:26pm

And BSU & SDSU & Tony Kornheiser & Michael Wilbon,& SportsCenter, & Dan Patrick

lilpenny

10/1/16 12:48pm

Apparently Memphis fans, too

CougarVeteran

10/1/16 2:01pm

Even with the go ahead score with less than a minute in the game we attempted

kalifi

10/1/16 10:01am

The targeting needs to stop, though. That was textbook illegal hit last night

Iman23

10/1/16 10:11am

Keep beating the ute drum.

yahtzee

10/1/16 12:37pm

Looked to me as if he got airborne and came down, tried to get low, but

thegoodmeister

10/2/16 1:45am

That is the agenda of classless, low character yewt and Aztec fans

JmThms

10/1/16 10:24am

Is it really a lie? Nut punch. 3 targeting ejections this year. Memphis brawl.

Iman23

10/1/16 10:43am

Yes, it is a lie.

LiveCoug

10/1/16 10:54am

We definitely need to clean it up--stop giving them fuel for the fire.

dilbert

10/1/16 10:55am

Maybe if you pay attention to BYU 100% time like Commuter School students do

jrifkin48

10/1/16 11:01am

On the other hand

coldcoug

10/1/16 11:38am

Yes because the lie is based on volume offenses and a pattern that sets BYU....

JmThms

10/1/16 11:08am

Targeting ejections shouldn't be 3. We have been much cleaner this year

RugbyBYU

10/1/16 11:32am

Using the two first targeting calls as evidence

Spocougar

10/1/16 11:34am

Nacua's was debateable. McChesney was absolutely targeting

Iman23

10/1/16 11:42am

It was an easy call- rules suck but still the rule

SouthernBlueBlood

10/1/16 11:44am

There's a difference between targeting and a dirty hit

Spocougar

10/1/16 11:46am

THIS. Just because it is "targeting" does not make it dirty

ColonelMustard7

10/1/16 11:35pm

You mean the brawl that was Memphis' second of the season?

Superman21

10/1/16 12:35pm

And they respond

LiveCoug

10/1/16 11:29am

What about the egregious facemask that nearly broke Jswag's neck?

Real Men Wear Blue

10/1/16 12:02pm

Replay clearly showed it wasn't "facemask"

provodude84606

10/1/16 12:22pm

I think he was talking about against Utah.

Superman21

10/1/16 12:37pm

I don't know the rule regarding horse collar

provodude84606

10/1/16 12:44pm

It's not. The rule has been posted multiple times. It was a clear horse collar.

RugbyBYU

10/1/16 1:41pm

Horse collar is much like the facemask, doesn't matter where it is grabbed

CougarVeteran

10/1/16 2:05pm

other then when we go nuts over ref stuff, I think the huge majority see this

cajuncoug

10/1/16 1:12pm

This was almost the exact conversation I had with my bishop the other day.

Superman21

10/1/16 6:09pm

Just win. I could not care less what others say.

YardTime

10/1/16 1:16pm

Yewts live in a fairytale world

Cougrrrs Roll

10/1/16 3:18pm

Doesn't bother me....

CoachSpeak

10/1/16 3:26pm

Lol. Yewts are such idiots.
