2nd best coach rant of all time. Jim Mora's "Playoffs????" barely beats it

For some of you guys, the BYU Fan reputation is well-earned.

What reputation is that?

Since I'm a guest, I'll follow this guy's mom's advice.

I don't need to tell you guys what your reputation is.

no better earned than Boise St fans' reputations...

Yep, we've got our share of knuckleheads at BSU.

What might a gracious response look like?

Compliment their team - mention what they did well and say it was a good game.

Dread Pirate Westley

9/22/21 4:54pm

Isn't it their job to do the same? If they're gonna be snarky, I'll be snarky

They were outplayed and outcoached. They knew it was a hostile stadium and were not prepared.We’d beat them in ASU too
