championship, then they'll beat Utah that year no problem...btw, Bronco takes the same approach every game, it's Utah who will need to change their approach

Here's the funny thing about BYU to the Big-12

Great Basin Ute

9/7/11 8:57pm

maybe every other year would work too

jwf

9/7/11 8:57pm

I don't think it's unreasonable, especially with USU

Great Basin Ute

9/7/11 9:01pm

I'd be fine alternating USU with Utah every year

vacougfan

9/7/11 9:02pm

there is absolutely no reason to stop byu v uu every

LiveCoug

9/7/11 9:03pm

LOL - you guys are of split opinions, too. Fascinating.

Great Basin Ute

9/7/11 9:05pm

Why is that even remotely fascinating?

Bill

9/7/11 9:17pm

Take a breath...

Great Basin Ute

9/7/11 9:25pm

I'd want the Utah game even more...

SaintGeorgeYFan

9/7/11 9:06pm

I don't think that's funny.

Zaphod

9/7/11 8:58pm

Actually, I would love to see a PAC 12 Utah play a Big 12

Omaha_Cougar

9/7/11 8:59pm

Me too

propha

9/7/11 9:02pm

Yes, but Utah as a real rival is only a recent development

Blueto

9/7/11 9:00pm

We'll play you guys any time, any where. We won't end it....

BluesBrother

9/7/11 9:00pm

No reason to drop it, numerous BCS teams play rivals

BYUTenderHeart

9/7/11 9:01pm

Nope. If you are big enough to run with

Rocketman

9/7/11 9:02pm

Neither conference is tough enough

Pasadena

9/7/11 9:02pm

Florida model vs Fresno model...

Great Basin Ute

9/7/11 9:10pm

Florida generally does schedule down the first few weeks

improv

9/7/11 9:17pm

Yet Florida plays Florida State every year . . .

Pasadena

9/7/11 9:25pm

Miami fans see it differently and derided UF for canceling.

Great Basin Ute

9/7/11 9:33pm

Miami has fans? When did that happen?

Pasadena

9/7/11 10:15pm

Florida frankly also has much better teams every year

squidmark

9/7/11 10:13pm

Huh? Big12 is tough enough

PaxDog

9/8/11 11:09am

If SC/ND can play end of season

Downtown

9/7/11 9:03pm

That doesn't always happen either

Jeffacka

9/7/11 9:09pm

I want to play the game every year

CSoul

9/7/11 9:04pm

You don't abandon a good rivalry and BYU Utah is one of the

Blue Ghost

9/7/11 9:04pm

You had me until you referred to Fresno as a "reward".

Steve O'Rama

9/7/11 9:05pm

LOL

Great Basin Ute

9/7/11 9:06pm

Any BYU fans who think the rivalry game is...

Mighty Cougar

9/7/11 9:06pm

Nope. Wrong again. The game needs to be played.

myboynoah

9/7/11 9:08pm

I look forward playing the yewts

eyebleedblu

9/7/11 9:10pm

B12 vs Pac..no chance, even more of a put up or shut up game

meter_reader

9/7/11 9:11pm

Unless B12 shuts it down like the PAC is trying to do!

meter_reader

9/7/11 9:12pm

Not me ... rivalries are what make college football great

ALRMCoug

9/7/11 9:13pm

rainorsnow

9/7/11 9:15pm

But literally nothing will be on the line now

Mighty Cougar

9/7/11 9:26pm

Not so sure that is true. For instance,

cougsareforreal

9/8/11 11:12am

Agree, hope they move it, more hope they never cancel it

UteonBainbridge

9/7/11 10:00pm

Ahh, I see. Becuase you hold out hope that Utah can win

Pasadena

9/7/11 10:19pm

Some fans want to "dial down" the rivalry

rainorsnow

9/7/11 9:13pm

If we never play utah again I am fine with it.

Mr Blue

9/7/11 9:15pm

Rivalry should continue! BIG12 changes nothing!

RealityCheck

9/7/11 9:20pm

Which is a shame. The Holy War is one of the better

UNLVcougar

9/7/11 9:21pm

i don't think many here would agree with you actually

darkcoug

9/7/11 9:22pm

Right now, you're right, the oats are high...

Great Basin Ute

9/7/11 9:30pm

That's what people don't quite grasp yet....

Mighty Cougar

9/7/11 9:34pm

I'm a traditionalist.

IAMBRAVEHEART

9/7/11 9:35pm

But new rivalries will emerge...

Mighty Cougar

9/7/11 9:37pm

True, but there is nothing quite like the passion of an

IAMBRAVEHEART

9/7/11 9:39pm

That is true. But in-state rivarlies

Mighty Cougar

9/7/11 9:43pm

USC Notre Dame. Colorado CSU. Georgia Georgia Tech.

cosmohio

9/7/11 9:37pm

But interestingly, many of those are not "primary" rivalries

Mighty Cougar

9/7/11 9:45pm

that makes his argument even stronger.

Pasadena

9/7/11 10:24pm

Whether or not they're primary or not doesn't really matter.

cosmohio

9/7/11 10:27pm

Good points

ABCoug

9/7/11 10:11pm

Put me on record: Play it every year.

CosmoK

9/7/11 9:55pm

No way. Play every year. Make it as routine as a conference

squidmark

9/7/11 10:11pm

May as well play it.

ABCoug

9/7/11 10:14pm

BYU-Utah game will always matter, because

BlooCoug

9/7/11 10:23pm

I disagree. It's an OOC win against PAC12

CarolinaCoug

9/7/11 11:27pm

nope. If BYU is competing for big12 conference

palangi

9/8/11 8:29am

the game would lose some of it's importance but

llightmann

9/8/11 11:57am

I'd like to see the rivalry game go on, but I've already
