Here’s a coug wishing Utah the best

[TDS apologist]

I really want Utah to win Saturday. It has nothing to do with the fact that my team (BYU) would like Iowa State to lose.

If you see my previous post, you will see I cheered for Utah in 2008, even as they were defeating my Cougars in Salt Lake City. I wanted BYU to win, but once I saw it was not possible, I cheered for Utah and felt they deserved the National Championship.

Utah can become bowl elligible. We all anticipated much more at the beginning of the year, but it is something. It’s better than what my Cougs had last year:(

Usually, most years, I feel the same way about BYU. But man, that Holy War game this year really soured me. Also, I probably lurk too often on Cougarboard that I’m praying BYU loses one more and doesn’t make the playoff. I don’t know if I can handle the incessant annoying fans.

That said, I am generally ok with BYU, it was easy when we weren’t in conference together. Also, at least one or more of my kids will go there and I’m encouraging them to go there (it’s cheap and a great University). And being active LDS, I appreciate BYU’s ties to the Church and its influence outside of Utah.
