Stanford and Notre Dame (Hoosier Coug)

Stanford and Notre Dame

A "rivalry" that is nothing compared to BYU-Utah gets huge billing and special status. As long as Stanford is playing ND late in the year, the Utes are neutered pieces of chicken yewt.

You can call it fear, but it's really just business (long)

We're already in deep doo doo

Douger

Apr 16, 11:46am

I disagree

BYUtiful

Apr 16, 11:48am

Well, sure, it's not set in stone

Douger

Apr 16, 11:57am

Agreed. That's why I think we COULD be in

That is the top of your wish list. I just isn't true.

Matthute

Silly Ute, nobody knows about Utah elsewhere (nm)

Douger

Apr 21, 05:21pm

That's what I thought too, really. It was interesting. (nm)

Matthute

Explain SoCal-ND (nm)

Sorry, I was asleep! :)

Medute

Utah =/= USC. BYU =/= ND. (short)

VirginiaUte

Apr 16, 09:12am

Yet it blows 99% of his arguments out of the water (nm)

cougarick

Apr 16, 09:13am

Why do you think that?

VirginiaUte

Apr 16, 09:21am

You don't give up a game with your only rival, period (nm)

cougarick

Apr 16, 09:24am

I'm on your side with that opinion.

VirginiaUte

Apr 16, 09:27am

It blows conference significance and SOS issues,

cougarick

Apr 16, 09:33am

I would argue that USC/ND aren't in same market

VirginiaUte

Apr 16, 09:38am

ND pulls recruits from SoCal (nm)

Steve O'Rama

Apr 16, 12:13pm

In a strange way, it actually supports the initial argument.

Matthute

Apr 16, 10:14am

RE: Utah =/= USC. BYU =/= ND.

SaltLakeCoug

Apr 20, 09:58am

Easy answer - Utah is not USC

Medute

Apr 16, 04:20pm

So, fear of the risk of injuries and missing a bowl game? (nm)

Abe Froman

Apr 16, 05:30pm

And money (remember the business part) (nm)

Medute

Apr 16, 05:35pm

But not "just business", as per your OP. Fear, also. (nm)

That just shows the hypocrisy of the PAC. (nm)

Douger

Apr 16, 08:11am

Not the Pac. Utah.

About your gif...

BluePete

May I point out that the kid is wearing a RED shirt? (nm)

Just a little light humor (nm)

It's a tough call Hill has to make

hansel

Apr 16, 08:13am

Put it this way. Purdue doesn't need to play Notre Dame

hansel

Apr 16, 08:15am

Exactly right. A huge gamble to take with

messi

Apr 16, 09:37am

Seriously? Did you not notice that a 10 win BYU team

jt04

Apr 16, 11:58am

Yep..."all in" makes for great movies, but it can

BluePete

Apr 16, 12:02pm

There's plenty of bigger OOC rivalries

Douger

Apr 16, 08:10am

Hear me now.

Mister P

Apr 16, 08:12am

I agree. I don't see Utah being more successful in the pac

bald man

Apr 16, 08:16am

I can see that happening (nm)

IJustMussedMyPants

Apr 16, 08:31am

Yep. Good point. I can't see why the average P12 athlete

BluePete

Apr 16, 08:48am

Seriously? Have you been to Tuscon? Pullman? Corvalis?

jt04

Apr 16, 12:04pm

I can see that, only way that would be reversed

Heinz57

Apr 16, 08:56am

I hope he says yes. It's a good rivalry. (nm)

SouthernCoug

Apr 16, 09:54am

Very possible. (nm)

OhYePoorFools

Apr 16, 09:56am

Yes, Utah's future dependent on BYU's graces.

Duhwayne

Apr 16, 10:17am

Wow. Just wow. A yewt talking about backsliding into

IceBlue

Apr 16, 10:37am

For starters, the game will be played now and again

Matthute

Apr 16, 01:18pm

Oh, so we'll play it when you want. (short)

Douger

Apr 16, 01:44pm

I like having the game and I would rather it continue but if

Matthute

Maybe

My favorite part about your rant is...

Kaze

Don't forget the Rose Bowl "birth". (nm)

Abe Froman

Apr 16, 08:27am

Maybe I should approach it like a Y fan

Medute

Apr 16, 04:32pm

Or, you could get the point. Berth <> birth.

Abe Froman

Apr 16, 05:44pm

Rant - I don't think that word means what you think it means

Medute

Apr 16, 04:31pm

So USC isn't playing Notre Dame anymore?

cmck1724

Apr 16, 08:48am

I've come to the same terms with it is as you have, I think.

VirginiaUte

Apr 16, 09:11am

It's looks like fear to me

Whatever makes you feel better about it. (nm)

^Irony^ Did you watch last year's game? What about

VirginiaUte

Apr 16, 10:47am

Any explanation you can offer about why

bigbluecougar

Apr 16, 10:52am

Yeah...we're done here. (nm)

VirginiaUte

Apr 16, 11:02am

Are the utes afraid of injury?

bigbluecougar

Apr 16, 10:38am

This will tell a lot about the integrity of Utah IMO

ocmyhome

Apr 16, 09:40am

Or lack thereof. (nm)

BluePete

+1. You make your bed - you sleep on it. (nm)

mrclark411

Apr 16, 10:07am

In today's culture, I doubt BYU would act differently.

sheriffcreg

Apr 16, 10:19am

Ya we are. We dragged you along for thirty years

Douger

Apr 16, 10:22am

Bull. If you had the offer and Utah didn't (short)

Duhwayne

Apr 16, 10:28am

Yes. We actually did. (nm)

IceBlue

Apr 16, 10:39am

Really? Which one? (short)

Duhwayne

Apr 16, 10:42am

Just because Utah benefited more 1970-2000...

sheriffcreg

Apr 16, 10:31am

BYU is different. I'm not saying "better", but different,

ocmyhome

Apr 16, 10:30am

Yes, you are special. (nm)

Duhwayne

Apr 16, 10:38am

Yup, true colors there... (nm)

ocmyhome

Apr 16, 10:41am

And yet this attitude may have gotten TCU a Big 12 invite. (nm)

jt04

Apr 16, 12:05pm

These hypotheticals don't do any good

Medute

Apr 16, 04:36pm

to be fair, one can't logically be upset w/ Utah

ocmyhome

Apr 16, 04:57pm

That's why I mentioned the tradition as the only positive

Medute

Apr 16, 05:15pm

Like it or not, it helps you recruit here. (nm)

Douger

Apr 16, 05:18pm

I don't think so

Medute

Apr 16, 05:36pm

Kids are silly and easily influenced.

Douger

Apr 16, 05:50pm

nice gif, btw. Hilarious. (nm)

Douger

Apr 16, 05:50pm

That's my point. (nm)

jt04

Apr 16, 06:58pm

This is a business...But, one thing that says more than

TrueBlue67

Apr 16, 10:28am

Urban leaving when he did was the best thing that

jt04

Apr 16, 12:08pm

Someone on here strongly refuted that once

Medute

Apr 16, 04:40pm

Why do I get the suspicion, though, that the Yewts just

FierceArc

Apr 16, 10:33am

Yes, it probably has to do with how to handle BYU.

Duhwayne

Apr 16, 10:37am

The number of recruits they compete for is fairly small

It doesn't seem like a good business move either

Here is my explanation

Medute

Wo ... I was at that party! (nm)

Johnny Vatos

Apr 16, 11:46am

No disagreement here. BYU would have to do the same thing (short)

bluefish

Apr 16, 11:58am

Completey disagree

Douger

Apr 16, 12:03pm

Maybe that is why TCU is the Big 12 and not BYU. (nm)

jt04

Apr 16, 12:09pm

I think that's a whole different can of worms (nm)

Douger

Apr 16, 12:12pm

You're probably right. I was being snarky. ;) (nm)

jt04

Apr 16, 01:32pm

doesn't matter what you call it

Broncoite

Apr 16, 12:08pm

It's not fear. It's the fact that they have moved on

sure, part of it is arrogance, but a large part of it is (short)

Kind of like all these threads? (nm)

Are they making you feel even more insecure? (nm)

Ute Fan Base will dwindle

DazeofBlue

It will put Utah on the fast track to irrelevance (nm)
