    NO! NEVER AGAIN! Hammer a stake through their hearts!
    One thing I have learned in a long life: that all our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike -- and yet it is the most precious thing we have.

    --Albert Einstein

    The fact that life evolved out of nearly nothing, some 10 billion years after the universe evolved out of literally nothing, is a fact so staggering that I would be mad to attempt words to do it justice.

    Yes! Beat them every couple of years to prove who the best in the state is. If we don't too many people will believe the Zoob hype machine that we're scared to play them because we're afraid to lose and they'll still get some recruits. Beat them on a relatively consistent basis and make them irrelevant.

    This is the right choice. Make them USU.

    Play 'em, don't play 'em, whatever. Make a decision and stand by it...even if it makes you look bad in the short term (not that it really made them look bad to anyone that mattered).

    Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

    USU does a great job of being USU.

    BYU can be the Washington Generals of college football.

    I really like the rotating of USU and the BYU. But i would have no problem playing the BYU every year. I like maintaining traditions.

    I think a regular rotation is a decent compromise between the two camps.

    My hope that Utah never plays BYU again is actually that BYU does away with D1 sports all together. Just be a religious/academic institution and people will respect that.

    Yes in basketball (after a 1+ yr hiatus). No way in hell do I want them in the FB schedule every year, because they will be seen as the 'biggest' OOC team, and in years we play them the rest of our OOC schedule will be awful. And I would actually enjoy rotating them with USU. But that can't happen until at least 2022 😈

    I know I am preaching to the choir here.

    Screw them. Let wilt on the vine.
