You have no idea obviously. I couldn't care less what you think it shows. There is no shame in wanting to beat your biggest rival. Go ask Army fans who they'd rather beat this coming year ... Navy or Ohio St. Let us all know what you find out.

Seriously? Have BYU fans accepted the role of "Little Brother" now? Jarom Jordan

BYU fans that live in Utah are so disappointing

BYU fans that live outside of Utah are clueless.

I don't disagree that a win over LSU is a much better win but

good perspective, but how many people (including BYU fans)

You're kidding right?

true, but replace the Utes in any of those exciting finishes with a Notre Dame

It changes nothing until BYU starts dominating them over a period of years

I work at the U and am sick of the little brother mentality CB has

Ghost

5/26/17 12:39pm

"I work at the U." Yeah, your opinion is immediately void after that.

SlippinJimmie

I think that it makes his opinion even more valid.

Yeah, so disappointing that we want to best our rival

Normally I would agree with you but they have to beat Utah and get that monkey

I think the fact that they've now beat us so many times in a row is getting into

this is true. I am sick of doing Utah stuff with the bets I lose at work. Still

I don't get crap anymore from Ute fans at work.

IndependentGeorge

5/26/17 8:03am

We are to them what usu is to us. A joke. Beating us is a foregone conclusion.

This is the saddest part of where the rivalry is at in their minds....

Bonoman

5/26/17 11:11pm

Plus we recruit head to head with Utah.

SaintGeorgeYFan

5/26/17 11:24am

I would take a win over LSU.

BYUheaven

5/26/17 7:56am

Me too, WAAAAY more recognition on a national level.

NorCal_Coug

5/26/17 8:53am

That would immediately be lost with a loss to Utah the following week.

Florwood

5/26/17 8:59am

That's historically how BYU operates

buffgato

5/26/17 9:11am

An early season loss before Utah takes any relevance out of beating them too

NorCal_Coug

5/26/17 9:42am

Don't doubt that ute fans are voting too

I would much rather BYU beat LSU. I don't want a guaranteed loss to BYU.

Agreed, but you have the national perspective, not the 801 perspective.

Recruits at east and Bingham don't care about lsu. Beating utah is what will

Where did the biggest recruit out of Utah go last year? Not BYU or Utah!!

Backcountry

5/26/17 5:11pm

More recruiting battles going against Utah??

SaintGeorgeYFan

5/26/17 11:26am

I'm surprised this is even a question. You always want to beat your rival.

byujdmba

5/26/17 8:09am

Yes, but that's actually likely this year (I know I know ... past experience...)

BamaCoug

5/26/17 8:13am

I don't care about bringing relevance to the brand

Cougarealist

5/26/17 8:53am

Pretty sure a win over LSU away from LES will do more for a top 25 ranking than

BamaCoug

5/26/17 9:36am

You realize Utah is in a P5 now and ranked more

SaintGeorgeYFan

5/26/17 11:30am

Wait ... What? Really?

BamaCoug

5/26/17 9:12pm

we're favored by 1 IIRC, meaning we'd expect to lose on a neutral field.

Just because you live in the South, doesn't mean you're right.

It usually does.

5/26/17 12:15pm

Beating your rival would do more for monetary support in BYU than beating LSU

repeated beatdowns have rendered half of this fan base milquetoast

The "little brother" phrase is tired and worn out

This board has been exhibiting "little Bro" symptoms since PAC12 went to plan B.

fulano

5/26/17 8:28am

Byu is little brother. Own it, but hope kalani and Holmoe can turn things around

Backcountry

5/26/17 8:29am

Oh, brother. It's just cyclical.

byujdmba

5/26/17 8:34am

Utahs p5 affiliation is cyclical?

Backcountry

Result of the cycle. And not why we lose.

Give me a break. The football programs are competitive and BYU is ahead in most

Backcountry

We're just tired of Utah getting the ball to fall their way in the rivalry games

Utah. a 57% chance of us winning is way too high.

D.T. Survivor

5/26/17 8:40am

Not in my book. I'm confident of a win over the Utes this year.

BamaCoug

5/26/17 9:41am

As confident as the last SIX losses in a row?!?!

I'm not going to try to persuade you otherwise, I agree with you....

CoachSpeak

We haven't won a rivalry game since 2009. It's a no brainer at this point

cajuncoug

5/26/17 9:06am

For me, it's all about what we have to lose - and hedging against that.

IMO there is more to lose in a loss to Utah than LSU

Beating lsu does nothing for byu. Beating itah does.

You must have forgot how much Utah owns BYU.

Wow. That's some derangement the Yewts have implanted in your brain.

BamaCoug

5/26/17 9:59am

Lsu doesn't impact recruiting. Utah does significantly.

This has nothing to do with being a little brother, and everything to do with rivalry.

IrishCooga

5/26/17 9:56am

Like Jarom said on the show it is the logical vs the emotional response

Dr T-bone

5/26/17 9:58am

Utah is always the logical response.

Turnpike Lane

5/26/17 10:14am

We are already favored to beat Utah, Almost no chance to beat LSU

So how did that 2009 win vs OU help recruiting? And the Texas wins?

Although this FPI is pretty crazy. Less than 10% chance of beating LSU.

Instate and only against Utah. LSU is a national recruiting win.

We are "little brother" now. Sadly, BYU is no longer in a position to be..

k2coug

I lean towards the LSU win. It more than offsets a loss to Utah to most recruit.
