The fact BYU fans are saying the tackle was dirty is just off the charts on the moronic level.

Also, their forums? wtf if CSU Forums and BYU Forums got together it might just break the internet how the fuck do people even find what is being said in that garbage lol.


Utefans.net is even worse.

So Colorado and Utah forums are like from 10+ years ago lol, Might need ot check out USU and see if at least one Utah school has done it right.
Yep.

I like Utah State - it feels like they're the good guys/underdogs in a place of great evil. I'll happily cheer for them when they're not playing the Pokes.

I hope we get a healthy and respectful rivalry going with them.

Honestly, it has been crappy having them in the conference for me. I graduated from USU and loved it there. Great college atmosphere. When they were in the WAC/Big West, etc, I could cheer for them and the Pokes both.

My loyalty is 100% to the Pokes. Now that USU is in the conf, I actually want to see them lose key games if it benefits the Cowboys. And I hate that part about it.

That said, if the Pokes don't win the conf, USU would be the next team of choice for sure. The USU board has several BYU-esque fans too. Pompous fools, but for the most part their forum isn't too bad . Most have 0% respect for the Cowboys and still consider us a doormat, which also sucks because I was at USU when we were the doormat of the nation. How quick they forget.

Surprised they beat BYU; their backup QB is better than BYU's---by a lot.

Anyway, during my time at UW, USU was known as cheap shot U. They weren't good and you just hoped none of the guys got an injury from a cheap shot.

I don't remember the players, but, one game against USU, I remember one of our guys signaling fair catch at about the 15 or 20. The USU player ignored it and gave cheap hit on our guy. Helmet rolled clear back to the end zone and I thought the UW crowd was going to come out of the stands. Totally classless but par for the course for USU at the time.

Never liked them since; I'm not sure who I wanted to lose more, BYU or USU.
 
Good work, Aggies! To this day my two favorite teams are Wyoming and whoever is playing BYU :thumb:

Not like we don't have plenty of posters like that here as well. You don't need to go back further than the morning of the Texas State game where there were claims that "we'll obliterate these clowns" and such. A few big games by Pokes, and we all lose our heads. That really runs in most fan bases regardless of sport. :)

One of the reasons I find the Utah State fan base annoying. The program has two good seasons (good, but not great) and they think they're great But, the part that gets me is they talk shit about programs that have had much more success. Must be a Utah thing....and I don't like many things Utah (except the Moab area).

Go Pokes!!
 
I'll never get it, I've always been a USU & Utah fan as long as they aren't playing the Pokes. It's mainly BYU that I root against.

I like the fact USU has a great student section and UW students could learn a thing or three from them. It is a shame that teams forget what it's like at the bottom after a few good years but I'm pretty sure they all do.

What about Kyle "Onside Kick" Whittingham?
 
If Wyoming did it to anyone else how would I feel? Depends on the time it happened. In the early 90's the way he did that would have been considered cheap and running up the score with no respect for the opposing coach.

Our coach instigated him doing that, If you can't take it don't dish it out.

If it happened today it would be acceptable because running up the score is all about getting noticed in the polls. There isn't much in the level of coach respect and sportsmanship today.

:thumb: Agreed. If we can hang 40 or 50+ on someone I want to see it done anyway possible. Now I know I need to eat my words saying that because I was whining and crying and bashing Dantonio for doing it but it is what is. If you can do it. Get the respect where you can.
 
I'm glad the Aggies destroyed the borg's season, but I wish Hill all the best in his recovery

Yikes. Terrible to hear. That just might be career ending. Wouldn't wish this on anyone, no matter the name on the front of the jersey. Hoping he recovers.

I agree. Its a shame when injuries of this magnitude happen. These poor kids that endure these injuries I'm sure it just crushes them. Not a one of them deserves it.

Jerseys littered throughout the stadium across the country...coincidentally with the star player's number, with no money going to the kid. All to the pockets of the NCAA. Young guys out there getting concussions, breaking their legs and ruining their bodies. Pretty sad deal.
