If BYU tries to fake punt on 4th and 19 in their own end zone again

Good point although if I recall BYU didn’t try Johnny did

The only redemption is for that play to be called again, and for it to work! Hope Kalani brings it out this year when no

Perpetual losing seasons

BYU quit caring about the program, moving it FCS or something. That'd kill it.

Well, I have 45+ years as a fan at this point. Don't think I'll stop caring

Perpetual losing might mean I won't watch every game
