Maybe we should ask ABC to cancel the broadcast so we can get more people to come watch it live?

Some (most?) BYU fans that live in Utah are fair weather.

Some (most?) [insert school] fans that live in [a state] are fair weather.

If we would actually beat Utah we wouldn't keep bleeding fans to Utah.

Is BYU football as exciting of a product as it use to be?

Tuskaloosa Cougar

Does it matter?

a priori

9/13/19 10:53pm

Yes it does. CFB is first and foremost entertainment.

It shouldn't matter. Loyal, strong, and true.

Yep, that's encompassed in what I said.

I always find BYU football entertaining. Sometimes for good reasons, sometimes

If they scored 3 points a game and gave up 50 per game

Huge Manatee

9/13/19 11:07pm

I'd find a way to make it entertaining. I'd probably complain about the coaches

It is getting to be that way for me and many others

Huge Manatee

9/13/19 11:12pm

Let me help.

Is it too much to ask to be better than Utah State?

Huge Manatee

9/13/19 11:15pm

I'm not a fan of Kalani, so they're honestly pretty low.

My point is that many of these fans don't even have unreasonable expectations

We are locked into the Hawaii Bowl. Isn't that correct?

Indy and the losing streak have sucked some of the passion out of the fanbase

Get off the Utah fanbase. Some of us drive hours to the game.
