Like recruiting...

Even if you don’t have hatred toward Utah and you agree with most of the things in the original post, you’ve got to be blind if you can’t understand that the more success Utah has the more it’s going to hurt BYU with recruiting. If you want BYU to be better, then you should hope Utah is not so successful, plain and simple.

Exactly, it's our freakin' BYU message board!

This. I don’t see many BYU fans seeking Utah fans just to trash talk them.

I cheered for them in '08. I had no problem with the utes. But since then they have become completely unbearable.

I grew up surrounded by Utes.

I hope they lose a lot for the benefit of our recruiting.

12/10/19 8:41am

It definitely makes a difference. Winning gets you talked about which is free

califcougar

12/10/19 8:52am

Honor Code and lack of P5 affiliation hurts recruiting worse than Utah winning

RockyBalboa

may be true but doens't change the point. I don't take MORE pleasure in them

Scooter

12/10/19 10:25am

I agree, doesn't change the point. But BYU is it's own worst enemy

RockyBalboa

12/10/19 10:48am

There were only a handful of games. It's natural to discuss the team nearby

I was cheering for Oregon to win more than the Utes to lose. I don’t care much about the Utes.

Cougar-Duck

Me too. Oregon has been one of my secondary teams I enjoy watching since the 90s.

I am just glad we have a coach that roots for them to go 11-1

I get the point but are you saying that until we have scoreboard that people

I understand and think it's fine if we want Utah to lose, BUT

I think a good balance is...yes, its ok to be glad they lost, but its best

Cmon guy, this is college sports. Relax. Don't take it so serious

Thank you for being that guy. The hate is a little too strong right now.

Amen, and thank you!

phillYeagles

12/10/19 9:22am

I will enjoy watching them upend the Texas Longhorns. Go Utes!!

12/10/19 9:24am

You will have to because OU has no chance against LSU. It will be ugly.

I believe in Sooner magic.

12/10/19 9:29am

it will definitely take some magic or some sort of voodoo

oryguncoug

12/10/19 9:43am

The worst kind of Utah fan are those that take joy in BYU losing and have no clue about their own team.

12/10/19 9:25am

1) Recruiting 2) ant-Church bias That's why I hope they get crushed

This is my big concern. BYU is not investing in becoming anything other than

I'll take the long-term view of wanting the Utes to struggle. If they went to

12/10/19 10:44am

You dont understand the concept of rival. Only time to cheer for yewtah is when it may benefit BYU.

indocoug

12/10/19 10:49am

The other point that needs to be addressed, is that the BCS (CFP) is a cartel..

lilpenny

12/10/19 10:52am

question: should I go ahead and fan how it want?

12/10/19 10:54am

That happiness was not in spite of Utah program or players but the hate fanbase

12/10/19 10:56am

You don’t live in Utah I’m guessing

Croweater

The perspective is generally different for Utah residents, indeed.

Exactly. Especially going to the CFP. It would be damaging to BYU's efforts.

DraperCoug22

12/10/19 12:49pm

I haven't said a word to any Utah fans I know in person - just those here on CB.

Eddie

12/10/19 11:24am

Ya. I’m sure USC fans cheer for UCLA, Mich/OSU, Bama/auburn, etc

byu1

12/10/19 11:26am

I do not really pay attention to Utah during the season

Dan

12/10/19 11:30am

for me it's about recruiting, the better Utah does, the less top recruits we get

Hill4Heisman

12/10/19 11:38am

Don’t disagree, but why bother shaming fellow Cougar Fans?

Florwood

12/10/19 11:45am

LOL.

RockyBalboa

12/10/19 11:49am

I take no joy from the loss of others.

PJMort

I don’t think some of you understand what a college football rivalry is

12/10/19 12:19pm

Agree and disagree

You can hate your rival and hope they lose every game but...
