Yeah - the girlfriend thing is a stretch.

We all hope to have a girlfriend who isn't so superficial as to dump us for the handsome doctor.

But we're talking about Wyoming, SDSU, UNM, etc. Getting dumped by their girlfriend is something that they understand.

If you thought that opposing fan bases hated us when we were in the MWC

My preference is AAC if we have to choose between the two.

They are now. Just for different reasons.

They hate us for leaving but have no problem with utah or TCU leaving.

So true

They hated BYU before they left, Utah and TCU were just other teams in the MW

You know why, don't you?

There were very good reasons to leave but I've never talked to a MWC fan that

They were still the jilted girlfriend.

Girlfriend analogy is bad, but your point is spot on

But if your girlfriend leaves you because you're mooching money off her and she

I said it wasn't a perfect comparison earlier.

A few years back I made the following analogy. BYU, Utah, TCU and the

You're missing the true reason

Agree. The hate would be strong.

"The hate is strong is this scorned one."

I don't think they would care, when BYU comes to town I think they wonder

RC Vikings

And the problem is?

Let that sink in.

Who cares? Bigger problem is actually beating MWC teams.

I wouldn't mind if we went back to MWC for basketball. But no way for football.

Have they really saved us? Olympic sports I hear is a huge plus with WCC but really if we were in the WAC would it matte

SouthernBlueBlood

2/20/18 4:16pm

Maybe life saver was a little much but WCC is better than the WAC imo. Others

IceCreamButt

2/20/18 7:08pm

I believe the hate would be less, they would see BYU as a broken, humbled team

RC Vikings

2/20/18 4:12pm

That is the recipe for some epic fan smack right there.

what was it like when we played in the Pit earlier this season? New Mexico fans

Nah, they'd welcome us back. Fans are smart. They know we make the league

Other schools want BYU back to get their attendance up

"Fans are smart" - said on a board where we try to prove otherwise every day

I wish there were FAN boards in the WCC, they can't even get to games let alone

Cougarfan777

Well it's their fault that they are stupid. If they had kept us sans football,

And we've been worse off ever since in both sports.

Bingo. I'll take ANY fans at this point.

The hate is one of the things that made it fun
