It says a lot about the relative states of the programs.

Are actual Ute fans acting like that, or is it just the AD and vocal BYU haters?

Its not the state of the programs, its the arrogance

A very large, vocal portion of your fanbase is BYU/Mormon hating

Fantasy land where socio-cultural realities are ignored is much more palatable.

Not ignored. I just get tired of how it is spoken of as though 90% of the

Tokolosh

I don't think that is how most BYU fans feel. Most probably feel the 90% are

crack

10/27/16 11:37am

This is the point. The 90% that say nothing is the problem

Dissenter

10/27/16 12:51pm

More than 10% but less than 40

Agreed. CB can be an interesting place sometimes. Small minority, but CB tends

TheLoneCougar

10/27/16 11:39am

You threw out the "90%" number, not me. I simply said a "large vocal portion".

Do you seriously believe a "large" portion of Utah fans are Mormon haters??

Machiavelli

10/27/16 11:32am

At least 50% are just LDS haters and wear U gear as their Badge of hate.

blackshirts

10/27/16 11:49am

Also, approximately 84.56% of statistics are made up on the spot

Machiavelli

10/27/16 11:57am

50% are LDS, so...

lilpenny

10/27/16 1:02pm

Maybe 50% UofU students, but from what I've seen most UofU fans are not or ever

You are still off.

Cougstreak

Yes, I do think a large portion of Utah fans are Mormon haters.

Oh, well thanks for clearing that up. If you are using Utefans and news comment

And dear Toko, where sir do you get your justifications? personal experience?

Beeg

10/27/16 12:17pm

Yep, personal experience and relationships.

Tokolosh

I shaped my views through personal interaction.

"Entire Fanbase"? Quit exaggerating. I said a large "portion" are anti-Mormon

Boise is actually kinda bad too

To be fair, they needed another 10 seconds to finish reading it.

You are dreaming. This makes us all look bad, lay off.

Cougstreak

10/28/16 5:30am

Come out of your shell.... It's closer to 50%.

blackshirts

10/28/16 9:14am

Ha ha ha!!!!! 50%, wow!!!!

Cougstreak

10/28/16 9:27am

Really, most Utah fans are good. They turn a blind eye, but they're good people.

Dissenter

10/28/16 10:04am

Again I a perplexed at these responses.

Cougstreak

10/28/16 11:51am

I'm not saying the whole 50% thing

Dissenter

10/28/16 12:50pm

You would have been right.

Cougstreak

10/28/16 1:49pm

Haha...oh jeez. Well that explains a lot

Machiavelli

10/27/16 12:12pm

I would call it a "not insignificant portion" of the fanbase

Cyclogist

10/27/16 12:16pm

Uh no. Many of them wear ute gear to show

BYU '80

What are you talking about?

Cougstreak

You need to get off CB a little more. BYU hating yes, but not as mormon hating

Bunyip

Get off Cougarboard? HA. Good one. I'm hardly even here.

There are too many of them unfortunately. You should probably dig your head out of the sand

Toko has always bristled at this reality. Doesn't want to hear it.

Ironhide

10/27/16 11:22am

Aren't byu haters and ute fans pretty much the same thing?

IceCreamButt

Thrilled? Humiliated?

If it wasn't for ute fans trying to big time BYU then this would not exist:

Caboom

10/27/16 11:01am

This is a game that should be played, even if BYU is in the Big 12.

boscatar

This is not entirely true.

Well we do actually need Utah. We have hard time schedule good P5 teams and Utah

CougarBran

10/27/16 1:28pm

Utah = competitive in a P5 conference, possibly PAC12 Champ Game Bound

TheLoneCougar

10/27/16 11:15am

What a weird post. Go ahead and be humiliated.

Ironhide

10/27/16 11:18am

they should just be happy the games in provo will be on normal networks

10/27/16 11:18am

The game that was nationally televised on Fox this year wasn't "normal" enough?

Every Ute I know wants to play BYU every year.

No, Michigan is by far the best out of conference win.

Humiliating? The Utes that react that way are the ones humiliating themselves.
