An honest question: as both a U and Y fan, what did you think about the Utah

coach and AD putting on a public spectacle to try and embarrass BYU after the Nick Emery incident (scuffle) 2 years ago? Second, what are your thoughts about the Utah athletic department (leadership and coaches) trying to marginalized BYU by trying to not continue with the rivalry game etc.? All of this behavior from Utah AD management was fine and should just be shrugged off?

Maybe just don't obsess. It's just a game that post-adolescents play

I don’t obsess, in fact I have not thought about the game all day

I can tell you why the rivalry became bitter. Anti-Mormons in the Ute fanbase.

That might generally be true not as much in this case. The bitterness is strong.
