We got this yo.

As long as we are forced to play them, we may as well add to that total.

You want us to add to the 3 or the 25?
😉

Puget UteParticipant
Add to the 25. We own RES South and shouldn’t lose there, either…

Too bad. That’s 3 too many.

UTEMANParticipant
This in not true, they have beat Utah only twice in the past twenty five years.
-

Do we need an official fact checker? The truth is Utah has NEVER beaten them, ever.
-
UTEMANParticipant
I stand corrected, there has been three wins in the past twenty five years, my bad
-
Tony (admin)Keymaster
And I shall correct you again. Utah has NEVER beaten them, ever.

UtahParticipant
I’m just grateful BYU has let us win a couple.

Unfortunately, none of the past 25 years have any bearing on the present.

Perhaps, but it clearly shows that BYU will not have a clear cut home-field advantage; if anything Utah should get the obligatory 3 from Vegas.

So many of them predicting a win. They lap up the hype every damn August and have their hopes crushed every September. It’s beyond absurd at this point

So I’ve never been to a game in Provostan. What is the ratio of fans in the stands? For a typical home game in college it would be something like 90-95% home team fans. Given the size of LES and the fact that LES is not sold out to season ticket holders, and the existence of KSL, StubHub. etc for secondary sales, I would think there is easy access to tickets by Ute fans. Do the Ute fans end up with as much as 30% of the seats? This should cut into the “home field advantage”.

I went to the last game in Prove. There were maybe 10% Utes’ fans at the game. I feel that BYU has more fans at our home games then we do at theirs. It doesn’t matter though. I believe it will be a closer game than it should and that we will win. At least that is my hope.
BTW, my son and I are going to the game again this year.-

It is pretty amazing how many of their fans come back to our stadium given our allegedly horrible treatment of them. You’d think at the rate we dump old ladies out of wheelchairs they would simply stop coming.

Maybe they just like getting beer poured on their families.

I don’t buy any comment that claims someone dumped beer on them after the game while in the stadium. The beer is long gone by the end of the game. I can believe that some idiot threw a liquid one someone. It is very unlikely that it was beer.

Puget UteParticipant
The beer dump actually DID happen, but the details are vastly different than the current fan fiction.
The genesis of the story was Danny White, who was Max Hall’s uncle. Danny played for ASU in the early 70s, and claimed that UA fans threw beer on his mom after a game. That version of the story is at least somewhat believable, since it takes place in the Wild Wild West of Arizona in the early 70s.

Beer-dump-gate is a poorly-fabricated lie that is easy to expose. All the stories of beer dumping specifically involve a CUP of beer (presumably because you can dump something more quickly from a cup than a bottle or a can). However, since beer isn’t sold in RES, the only way to get beer in there would be to smuggle it in under clothing or in a bag. You’re not going to be able smuggle beer in in a cup. I suppose someone who smuggled beer in a bottle or a can could go to concessions and get an empty cup and transfer their beer.
But ask yourself, which is more likely? That a Utah fan would go to all that trouble, or that a subset of BYU-P fans (and players) are lying in order to demonize their enemy?
Usually the simplest explanation is the right one.

I doubt any “beer was thrown on me when attending a game at Utah” story just for the fact that contraband (alcohol) in Rice-Eccles has to be smuggled in and it will almost always be something a LOT stronger than 3.2 beer. If they said “someone threw their coke on me and it sure smelled like something was mixed into it” I’d find their story much more credible.
Of course back in my drinking days, we DRANK what we snuck in. Sure wouldn’t waste it on visiting fans.

ironman1315Participant
But Utah fans pee on little kids!

Tony (admin)Keymaster
Yes. Plus, what kind of idiot would waste a perfectly drinkable PBR by dumping it on a zoob? That would be a shame.
