We just let the word “rivalry” get into our heads and we shoot ourselves in the foot. If we didn’t turn the ball over 6 times last year or have 11 (?) penalties this year, both games are blowouts.
We will beat the absolute s**t out of them next year…they’re @ AZ, @Wisc, @Boise, @ Wash, and @Utah. However they want to paint it (and they’ll find a way) they’re in big trouble.
You’re not going to have to worry about close games much longer my friend.
Yes, this bugs me. Kyle and co. Need to stop treating this as a rivalry. It messes with the players heads, few of whom actually have any association with BYU anymore. It’s just another ooc game. They are not in our league and we let them hang around. Ugh.
I’m p**sed off that you care so much about frigging margin of victory and not the fact that we won AT ALL. Does anybody care that Washington State only beat USC by three points? Or do they care that they just beat USC AT ALL?!?! Why can’t winning AT ALL be good enough for you people? Margin if victory is IRRELEVANT. ALL THAT MATTERS IS WINNING AND LOSING. I don’t care how much Utah wins by. I just care that they WIN. Does the victory not count unless you win by 50 points? If Utah went undefeated but only won every game they played by 1 point, would their wins suddenly not matter anymore? Would they not be undefeated anymore? Why do you care so much how much Utah wins by? Are you betting on them or something?
