      So clicked on cougerbored.  What’s the deal with this “give’m hell Brigham” rally chant?

      Is it some type of scripture or folklore?  Seems like it’s just an excuse to use a naughty word

      Affirmative. Bold. Daring. Sassy. Caffeinated.

      Going into the 1942 game, BYU hadn’t beaten Utah since 1898. One of their alumni was serving in ww2, and he sent a telegram to the team telling them to “Give ‘em hell, Brigham”.

      BYU ended up winning that game, so it’s been a part of their folklore/ battle cry ever since. (They didn’t win another one until 1958, btw)

        And then they had Willie Neslon write a folk song about Old Shoe….wait that was something else.

      It’s nothing more than a bunch of adults that have been treated like children their whole lives so they feel like a 8 year old with their friends, swearing, hoping their mothers don’t catch them.
